Conversations with God -- Minutes with Marie
Most of us are pretty confident that God hears us. After all, He is God, isn’t He? But, we’re a bit unsure about God speaking to us. How exactly does God speak to us? How can we know it’s His voice and not our thoughts? One way that God consistently speaks to me is through my daily Bible reading sch...

Join Us on a Journey
Early this morning, God brought two verses to my mind: Daniel 11:32 “… the people who know their God shall stand firm and take action .” 1 Chronicles 12:32 (from the tribe of Issachar) “… who understood the times and knew what Israel should do .” Do you know what I discovered? Both verses use the sa...

What Is Your Legacy? -- Minutes with Marie
Sorting through old boxes from my mother’s house, I discovered a gem! On a tiny scrap of paper was written something I didn’t know about my grandmother. Here’s what it said: When I get to Heaven I’ll be so taken up with Jesus that I’ll have to send dad to greet the rest of you when you come. Clara B...

The God Who Sees -- Minutes with Marie
I discovered a beautiful, meaningful music video last week and shared it with several of my friends. I’d like to share it with you, too. It’s a reminder that God sees, God knows, and God cares. He is The God Who Sees. Nothing is outside of His watchful care for us. Watch Nicole C. Mullen sing of Hag...

Light in the Dark -- Minutes with Marie
Very early this morning I was sitting in the dark, looking out the window at the clouds in the predawn sky. Because of the thick clouds, only a tiny spot of orange shone from the sun about to rise. It was such a small bit of orange, but it refreshed my weary heart. As I gazed at that bit of light, I...

"Gospel" is an unusual word - Minutes with Marie
“Gospel” is an unusual word. People rarely use it in ordinary, day-to-day conversation. And exactly what does it mean? “Gospel” means “good news.” But what is the good news? The long-awaited event has occurred. The King of the Universe has come. The King of kings came to Earth to rescue ME from the ...

Mercy -- Minutes with Marie
I sometimes hear that the God of the Old Testament is a hard, unforgiving God, and that mercy begins in the New Testament. I disagree. God is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Consider Aaron. Aaron was Moses’ brother. He saw God miraculously release His people from Egypt. He saw the people wal...
