The First Noel

By Christina

imageWhy would anyone dislike a season where we celebrate that our King was brought into this world–our Savior, Redeemer, Deliverer and our HOPE!

This is just another reminder of a God that LOVES us that much!

He has given us peace, joy, hope and love. So we believe that He is the First Noel. The first to forgive and the first to free us.

For to us a Child is born, to us a Son is given, and the government will be on His shoulders. And He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the greatness of His government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David’s throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever. The zeal of the Lord Almighty will accomplish this.
Isaiah 9:6-7

Hope Anchored In You

By Christina

image“Hope deferred makes the heart sick,
but when desire comes, it is a tree of life.”
Proverbs 13:12

No one wants to walk in a place where there are no choices, no solutions or places of growing ground. We hope for the best and walk towards a driven God-given goal. But when there is delay, you can easily be effected. The best solution for us is to always have our hope anchored in Him!  Continue reading

Fasting Fury

By Christina

imageHow furious this world is demonstrating unrestrained or violent anger, rage, passion, or the like; violence; vehemence; fierceness and wrath are plundering through the nations.

In a time of our fasting – this is certainly a great petition to put forth in our prayer time regarding the fury nations, places and people. Why has all this come upon us now, for we even fight for our faith? As each Christian stood up they were shot by a young man filled with unrestrained violence and hate toward a people of faith in the state of Oregon.

Yet another mass shooting has occurred, while many are traumatized by the effects of all this violence. How sad, how somber and what an eye-opener for us all to continue to stand in our faith and prayers!  Continue reading
