Vignettes 🏃🏻‍♀️ Run Your Race Well! I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, and I have remained faithful.   2 Timothy 4:7 NLT🏃🏻‍♀️ How is your race, your race of life, your Journey With Jesus  going? Paul, when he came to the end of his life, knew without a doubt that he had run his race well! 🏃🏻‍♀️Paul said of himself, I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, and I have remained faithful.  Are you running your race well? Will you, too, be finishing strong? Are you keeping the faith, or are you sitting by the wayside, having started strong but now your faith is flagging? Are you merely watching the others running their race, maybe heckling or criticizing their form, yet doing nothing to get up and go, to stir up your gift and the measure of faith that was given to you, into action? 🏃🏻‍♀️I know it's a personal question but it would help you and build you up to answer honestly, How is your personal Journey With Jesus going? ...

 Wednesday, 3 Tishrei 5783 Vignettes Maybe It's Time You Gave Up Behold, I will do a new thing, Now it shall spring forth; Shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness And rivers in the desert. Isaiah 43:19 I'm not trying to be negative, I'm not attempting to break you down or squash your dream, but Maybe It's Time You Gave Up? You had a dream, received a vision or prophecy, or you just knew in your heart that you had to do this thing for God. You have held on to the vision, the dream, or the prophecy. You have faithfully believed, but, if you had to tell the truth, nothing is happening and nothing has happened for a very long time! You thought, when God gave you the dream, the hope, the vision, that within a few months things would change, greater would come, you would see His hand of glory unfold over your life. But nothing has happened. Or maybe the change is so slow it's like watching paint dry! You have even asked yourself whether you had r...

Vignettes Bigger and Better Always! But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”  I Corinthians 2:9 What Do You Think Of Yourself?  Examine your thoughts this morning. Ask yourself what you truly think of yourself. Have you made up your mind that this, what you are living now, is all there is for you? Are most of your thoughts about yourself for good, or are your thoughts of you steeped in negativity, basically given up hope already, definitely not focused on God's best for your life? Or is there a hope in your heart that God has Bigger and Better Plans for you? What You Think Matters What you think of yourself truly matters. Your dominant thoughts about yourself will become reality in your life. If you think you can't make it, that this is too hard, that good things never come your way, then you will have what you say! You will think Murphy's Law was written especi...

Vignettes Till The End Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; because it will surely come , it will not tarry. Behold the proud, his soul is not upright in him; but the just shall live by his faith . Jesus promised each generation of Believers since Adam that He would never leave nor forsake them. Jesus has been faithful. He has not left the side of those who Believe in Him and in the power of His name. It takes faith to know that God will be with you till the end. Till the end of what, you ask? Till the end of the age,  till the end of the world,  till the end of the devil's reign on the earth; till the end of what you are believing Him to perform in your life.  Till  the end  of your days on earth, too.  God is not a man that He should indulge in lies, saying one thing yet doing nothing. If God has said He will do something, you can rest assured it w...
