Moving Day

I am a nester.  Once I settle in, I don’t like to move.

For three years, this little spot on the web has been my home.  I have made it mine.

I am comfortable here.

But, I forgot something.  I serve a God who likes to shake things up.  He moves.  He moves in spectacular fashion.

Last week, He moved in my life.

So, I am following His lead…..

My blog is moving to a new house.

For my e-mail following friends, I must let you know that you will not get any more e-mails after this one unless you stop by my new bloggy home and sign up again to receive posts in your inbox.

I hope you will come to visit.

Thunder Victory

shout triumphantly to the Rock of our salvation!

let us shout triumphantly to Him in song.”

A Consuming Fire

Apparently, God is a bit of a pyromanic.   Last week, I read in Hebrews 12 that He is “a consuming fire,” and I can’t seem to stop thinking about it.  My Holy God is using the flame to refine my life — removing all that is not holy, all that will harm me.   This forging is a painful process, but one that results in greater growth and beauty.

May I never resist the flame.

Consume me, Lord.

“So be truly glad.

There is wonderful joy ahead,

even though you have to endure

many trials for a little while.

These trials will show

that your faith is genuine.

It is being tested

as fire tests and purifies gold—

though your faith is far more precious

than mere gold.

So when your faith remains strong

through many trials,

it will bring you much praise and glory and honor

on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world.”

I Peter 1:6-7, NLT
