The Point – Drought
In North Georgia where I live, and in much of the Southeastern United States, we are experiencing a devastating drought. It has been months since we had any appreciable rain. Last month we had a couple of days where we received an inch of rain or less, but we are in...
The Point – Pursue Peace
This week as I meditated on Psalm 34 I found a verse that spoke to me in a new way. I am certain I had read this verse many times before, but the Holy Spirit drew back the curtain and shed fresh light on it. Psalm 34: 14 says, “Depart from evil and do good; Seek peace...
The Point – He Will Make My Paths Straight
Proverbs 3: 5-6 tells me to “trust in the Lord with all my heart and do not lean on my own understanding; in all my ways acknowledge him, and he will make my paths straight.” So, when am I going to get it? When will I learn that His job is to make straight paths and...

The Point – Grace Works the First Time
Recently I had the opportunity to volunteer on the counseling team for the Judgment House production that our church did and mercy, it was an eye opening experience. I heard stories from ladies who had walked away from any contact or even any desire for contact with...

The Point – Choose Love
As I have mentioned in the past, my Bible study group is doing “Wising Up” by Beth Moore (www.lproof.org) . It is a study in the book of Proverbs and I am finding many areas in my life where I need to wise up. Beth taught this past week on wise choices of friends and...
The Point – What is Your Calling?
What is your calling from God? Do you know? Have you ever thought about it? Every Christian has a personal calling from God, yet so many go through this life without ever knowing what that calling is. Your calling may not be what you do on a daily basis in order to...
The Point – History VS. Prophecy
In my Tuesday morning ladies Bible study group we are doing a new Beth Moore series entitled “Wising Up” and it is a study from the book of Proverbs. We are only one week into it and I wish so very much I had done this study many, many years ago. I could certainly...

A week or so ago I posted a picture of a hummingbird that landed on my head after it flew into our living room window. The Holy Spirit kept bringing that incident to my mind and reminded me of how very like this hummer you and I are as we go through our lives. If you...
