Abba Father, DAYENU—Your love, redeeming me from a life of destruction and crowning me with Your lovingkindness and tender mercies, would have been sufficient, but You had a special gift for me. Out of nowhere—actually when I was feeling nowhere, in despair with nowhere to turn, came Michael Finesilver. He loved me, Abba, just like…
Hadn’t spent alone-time with my Lord for few days and realized I was feeling “unanchored”. Immediately upon turning to Him, out of my mouth in prayer I was telling Jesus “I am in Your will”. As those words were spoken I began to weep with joy. To be in His will !!! No matter the…
“God is always wooing us closer to Himself … To transform our thinking about ourselves to fulfill our destiny.… [Moses] did not see himself as God did. When we obey, He brings the fire power to ignite us in the call… it is through conversation with Him that we discover the answer to the cry…
When I first became a believer in Yeshua, I was involved with someone the Lord, as well as my mother (!), were not pleased with. During that time, a stranger came up to me saying she was told by God that she needed to tell me something. She told me about a cartoon she saw…
Dear Friends, as of December 13, 2024, this is what Michael heard, “Well done My good and faithful servant.” My heart aches but rejoices that now Michael is free from pain. A beautiful tribute to Michael’s life can be found on Calvaryftl.org/memorialservice
From Enduring Commentary —Isaiah 42:3 A bruised reed He will not break, and smoking flax He will not quench: This is another reference to the gentle character of Jesus. A reed is a fairly fragile plant, yet if a reed is bruised, the Servant will handle it so gently that He will not break it….
While having physical therapy (yes, this “seasoned” body demands more and more attention), the music playing reminded me how much we are all lost without the Good Shepherd. One song was “Still Haven’t Found What I’m looking For” and right after that song came “I want to know what love is.” Thank You, Lord, that…
For many years I had seen the signs that proclaimed JESUS SAVES—without a clue as to what that meant. It seemed like a sign that was put up for all the desperate people who needed some saving. Until thirty-two years ago, when I called out to Jesus to save me, and He amazingly and graciously…
FROM PALM SUNDAYTO GOOD FRIDAYTO RESURRECTION SUNDAY Palm Sunday: all the Hosannas — was it because of a misunderstood celebration? I believe we can fall into such a misunderstanding. We think “oh good, now I’m “saved” — saved from trials, etc. Yet we are saved from God’s wrath because of Good Friday. Good even when…
A basic truth I’ve missed probably all my life:Watching all those suffering in Ukraine & I thought how I just wouldn’t have endurance or the will to persevere. But then I watched the interviews with those who are enduring great tribulation. All spoke about a loved one: women who wouldn’t leave if their husband was…
