Here is some good news for all of the people-pleasers, overthinkers, and self-haters. Our Heavenly Father is omnipresent, and right now He sees us as perfect and sitting with Him in heavenly places! He knows the end from the beginning, and He doesn’t see you with all of the faults and flaws and frustrations you have with yourself. He sees you as justified and with the righteousness of His Son, Jesus and seated with Him in heaven. What a benefit of Having Him as our Father!

Do you have that friend who you can tell everything? You can vent to? You can tell secrets? We have that in our Heavenly Father! He wants to know ALL of how we feel, every single day. We do not have to pray ‘correctly.’ We just need to come as we are and cast all our burdens on Him. What a benefit we have as His child!

8/5/24

There are so many benefits to being a child of God, a Christian, a daughter of the King! These benefits are ours whether or not we know them, whether or not we understand them, and whether or not we remember them. Think of it like having the best of the best smart phone. You may only understand 10-15% of all of the things your phone can do, but that does not make it, less advanced. Let’s spend a few weeks looking over some of the benefits we have as a Christian, in order to take full advantage of all of that God offers to us as His child. It’s so encouraging!

Do you ever feel invisible? That is a very common feeling. You are not alone in that feeling. But I would love to encourage you today; it is not such a bad thing! If you’ll share the next 10 minutes with me, I’d love to express a new perspective on feeling invisible and all the benefits we could find in that role.

7/9/24

Do you have the mentality that everything should be fair? Justice for all! Even-Steven! I tend to have that feeling very strong in my personality. The trouble is- life doesn’t work that way. People don’t work that way; and the longer we keep pushing for ‘fair,’ the longer we’ll keep getting disappointed. Let’s discuss a better plan today- Grace and Mercy.

7/1/24

Is it hard to say nice things to others? Does it feel awkward or insincere to compliment people? This is a common feeling, and one we must push past and overcome! If you had a childhood devoid of praise, and you are currently living a life without anyone around you speaking encouraging words to you and each other- may I speak to you today? YOU have the opportunity to change the lives of those you love AND your own life by learning how to give LIFE through your words. You can build up those you love to their fullest potential. It can start with you, and it can begin this week.

Why do some people seem so effortlessly successful? Maybe naturally thin or their house always seems clean and they’re never worried about it. Possibly they make all this healthy homemade food and it doesn’t even seem to be a chore. Maybe their hair and makeup always looks great or they have the best clothes. maybe they have this amazing walk with God that just seems seems unreachable. Let’s talk about that today. Chances are, in three months, you may be a lot closer than you think with a plan.

This audio is 5 1/2 minutes of nothing but pure encouragement for you! Prayer- my favorite topic. Today is your reminder that you can boldly take ALL your burdens, cares, emotions, pet peeves, feelings, opinions, tears, sorrows, joys, and questions to the Lord. All of it, all the time! He can handle it. He wants to hear from you. Jesus has made a way for us to go directly to God- let’s take full advantage of this wonderful offer! The Heavenly Father WANTS to hear from you today.

4/8/24

Let’s talk today about building relationships. I recently read a the findings of a survey about couples that stay happy together for the long-term. It is a very interesting thing they do. Even MORE interested, it is something the God show us in the Bible that He does with man!

4/1/24

If you are feeling, restless, anxious, nervous, or depressed, there are a few things you should do right away. So many things in life, we cannot control, but we CAN control what comes into our ears, and eyes through our phones , TVs, computers, and radios. Sometimes we must start block out the high-speed amount of knowledge that is pouring into our minds each day through reels, tick-tocs, shorts, and podcasts….even books! There are times to set those things aside, when that huge dump of information steals our peace. At certain times, all we should to come into our brains is the Word of God.

3/15/24

It’s sometimes easier to give good things (gifts, compliments, good deeds, etc.) to others than it is to receive them, ourselves. If we become aware of how much the Lord is showing us His personal love each and every day, and usually through OTHERS, we can begin to accept all good and kind deeds as gifts from Him. Let’s strive to become grateful receivers.

3/5/24

Yet again I saw something new in my Bible reading today! Moses is the man to look at for leadership AND followship principles. What an amazing leader, yet the way he meekly followed is the true amazement! Let’s look at how we can be better followers by his example in Numbers 27.

2/26/24

Are you a people pleaser? If we’re honest, most all of us can say yes to that, at least to some degree. I’d like to give you some very encouraging thoughts today. Possibly this mindset will help you to stop blaming yourself, or feeling shame or guilt. We simply need to ask ourselves- “Why,” the motive for what we do. If God is first place, we need not spend too much time overthinking who has second and third place. I hope this audio will be an inspiration and encouragement to all my fellow people pleasers!

2/19/24

Do you have faith today to believe God for something impossible? You can’t see a way for there to be a solution- but you believe enough to know – HE CAN! Here is 5 minutes of encouragement for you! Simply believe in a big, HUGE God!

2/5/24

I’m stunned. Most of my life I have heard (and taught) about the importance of our words….but just HOW important….it never dawned on me until I read through the book of Job this month. Join me for the most important 8 minutes I’ve ever given on this subject.

1/22/24

We’re talking again about having goals, failing, and then….. what happens next is the most important part! I’m sharing a couple ideas that have REALLY helped me with my mindset about setbacks. I hope they help you, too.

1/17/24

Did you make New Years Resolutions? How is it going? I’d like to discuss the ‘failure’ of a goal and how it can be our best friend. What? Failure a friend? Yes! I hope to encourage you today. Join me for a few minutes as we discuss what to do when we miss our own expectations for ourselves.

1/8/24

Yet another ‘Molly’ story to start off your week with a laugh. Some of you may identify with what happened to me last weekend. I hope you’ll share 6 minutes with me, as I recall an illustration of how the Holy Spirit works in our lives. Have a great week, Friends!

12/26/23

Hope you had a Merry Christmas! We are wrapping up (pun intended?) our series on giving the gift of Joy! This week, let’s talk about a super-practical thing we can do for ourselves that will help us in BIG ways on this holiday. God bless you, Friends! Love you❤️?

12/18/23

Week 2 of Giving JOY! This week we’re discussing something that you can give to others that costs nothing, but can make a huge difference in their life AND YOURS!

12/11/23

It’s Christmas Season! Let’s take this month to discuss ways we can give gifts that bring JOY- gifts for Jesus, Others, and You (yourself). Today we’ll talk about something we can give Jesus that He REALLY loves!

11/20/23

I get overwhelmed easily by a long to-do list. Thankfully, our loving Father provides us with short lists in His Word. Be encouraged today as we talk about this topic. Love you, Friends!

11/6/23

If you have trust issues from events in your past, or if you are simply human, and therefore, tend to lack trust in others- May I point you to a loyal, faithful, loving Father? He will never leave. He is the God Who Stays! I want that level of commitment in my own life toward others! I hope you’ll be encouraged with today’s 5-minute message.

9/11/23

Have you ever had a day when you wake up and your mind is already starting in with the negative thoughts? It seems that negative thoughts are closing in on you more and more , making you feel stuck. We all experience this. Unchecked, this ultimately leads to a day filled with negative actions and words and deeds and regrets. There are ways to battle this. Let’s discuss combating the negative thoughts that sometimes
seem to overwhelm us.

9/04/23

All of us have felt at times that someone is taking advantage of us.  What do you do about it?

6/05/23

Do we hide behind false modesty when actually we’re afraid or insecure? We may be missing opportunities to influence and help others as we stand back and stay safely inside our comfort zones.

5/30/23

Does what you do everyday even matter? I’m here to tell you- it does! Your small, daily acts of kindness add up to a wonderfully well-lived life! Keep up the great (and important) work!

5/15/23

Awww, nothing like a funny cockroach story to start off your week.  Maybe you can identify with what happened to me.

5/1/23

We’re walking through Psalm 149 together this week, as we remember how much FUN it is to be a Christian!

4/17/23

Talking about my favorite subject today- our AWESOME God! I hope you can hear the smile on my face as we spend 10 minutes together in amazement of our Giving Heavenly Father!

4/10/23

We all have times when we go through dry spells spiritually. God does not feel near. Possibly we even start to doubt some of the core beliefs that we have. I want to talk about that today and encourage you! There’s a way that we see in scripture that people who had been apart from the Lord for a while found him again and recognized Jesus.
