Our life can look bountiful yet still lack purpose. Here, in this 10-minute video devotional, we are going to take a closer look at Zacchaeus. At first glance he looks like a man with a full luxurious life, yet with a closer look we see Zacchaeus was desperate for purpose.
A man of prestige, lowered himself to climb that Sycamore tree to get a broader perspective of what Jesus was doing. When Jesus saw him up in that tree, He had the true bounty in store for him …
My friends, Jesus doesn’t want you to find your worth in Him so that you would simply feel good about yourself. He wants you to find your worth in Him to have full life transformation. The old is gone. The new has come. Purpose is found within these moments! No longer are we defined by […]
I’ve heard humility compared to a trained stallion. Without humility, we can act like wild stallions, all spirit with no boundaries, roaming. Humility is like a bridle on a stallion, providing the direction. Even though our spirit is strong, we know that we can’t win the race without God’s direction. Humility is not having a […]
When “that was humbling” comes out of my mouth, it usually means a less than proud moment had just occurred. Yet, as I sit and allow God to speak my worth over me, I realize that He desires those moments to occur. UGH! Anyone else think, “let’s just not”? I’ve walked the tight rope for […]
You’ve probably heard the saying, “The proof is in the pudding.” The true meaning of this saying is that you will not know what’s inside without taking a bit. Now, taking a bite of pudding doesn’t scare me, but risking much without knowing the outcome does. But, it applies to both. I will never know […]

Anyone feel like they need a fresh start? God craves to give us new beginnings in Him – but even more than a new beginning – He craves us to lean heavily into Him. Therefore, the word “comfort” is usually left out of a new beginning. Bummer, huh! Grab a cup of coffee, and let’s […]
Anointing has always sounded like a lovely word to me. In my mind’s eye, it involves standing with a smile on my face with arms raised to Heaven as I feel the comforting presence of God. The word anointing is said to have stemmed from shepherd’s rituals, during the time of Christ. Because ticks and […]
There are some days when Jesus is not that popular with me. Why? It’s because He is acting like my father, not my best friend. He’s holding me to a higher standard, correcting me, and asking for my obedience.
Most days I hate the thought of correction. Yet, ignoring it means turning my back on growth. Who will I be 50 years from now if I don’t allow correction into my life?
