Help in the Time of Need

In the midst of triumph and in the midst of chaos, God is still God. There is no shadow of turning with him. He is the fullness you seek and the peace that you need.

Be still.

Be still and know He is God.

All of heaven rejoices at His presence.

We who contain living water that flows out of our bellies can proclaim with assurance that He is King of kings and Lord of lords. Worthy, worthy is the Lamb of God.

~Debbie

Psalm 46:10

Be still and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen.  I will be exalted in the earth.

Prayer:

Father God, I need you. Thank you for comforting me and filling me with your Spirit and covering me in Your peace. In Jesus name. Amen.

A Sound Mind

Most stake their claim on today based on their past. 

What they have been, who they have been with in their lifetime.

Yet, we are daily given a clean slate like a new born babe.

Totally dependent on our Father for our identity, our food, our health, etc.

So we are given the opportunity to change our mind.

To receive the freedom found in dependence upon God.

This freedom is a new way to live.

It is not about what you or I can do or not do.

God is our Provider, in all things.

Receive what God has freely given.

~Debbie 

The first step to a sound mind is repentance. 

God has given us the ability to choose his way, truth, and light.

2 Timothy 1:7 

For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

Let’s pray:

Father God, thank you for your gift of salvation provided through the shed blood of your Son, Jesus Christ.

Father, help me to trust you. Open my eyes of understanding so that I might comprehend your goodness given to me. Father God where there is lack in area of my life, fulfill your promised Word to provide that which I need. In Jesus name. Amen

A Door Wide Open

What Time Is It?

     © 2023 Debbie Turner Chavers 

To the one who thinks life is over or that the road has ended.

It has not. Regardless of our perception. Life rolls on.

Minutes tick by as each hair on your head is counted. The smallest details of your life do not fade into a vacuum. 

The God who created you, the God who placed you in your mother’s womb has not forgotten you. (Psalm 139)

One by one, each breath taken, shallow or deeply was and is and ever will be, a gift from God.

Tomorrow may not be delivered for you.

Yet, you are delivered from death by the shed blood of Jesus Christ who died in your place and resurrected. 

Hang on.

A new day will arise.

Mercy will come.

The door is wide open for those in Christ.

~Debbie

Luke 12:7

But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.

Seek God

Are You Thirsty? 

© 2006 Debbie Turner Chavers

When you are feeling directionless, seek God. 

Spend time in His word, talk to Him. 

Determine to grow up and to mature beyond your own self-determined limitations.

We need to quit listening to our own negative self-talk and seek God’s word concerning us.

Quit trying to comprehend God outside of His Word. 

God Word reveals TRUTH, the Truth you need to navigate through your questionable feelings.

The Earth Sings in Flowers

Leaves have fallen

and fertilized hope

The winter of joy is gone

Behold, a new day

Spring has sprung,

the earth sings in flowers.

Revive

LORD

Revive us

Turn these stones

Water worn 

by tears

Cold, Stony Heart

Create new hearts

Sealed and set

In One Hope

Revive, O LORD

the love of thy people.

~DtC

Shadowed Reality

Shadowed Reality

© 2019 Debbie Turner Chavers

Sitting in the dark, one notices deep shadows of what is present.

Small details are blurred.

Our memories try to fill in the gaps of what we remember, yet what may not actually exist any longer.

The dark of ones night does that.

On the horizon is the glimmer of light back lighting the shadows.

The rising light begins to fill in the picture before you.

The blur of imagination and the reality of life become clearer as the light rises within you.

The light of the day star arising in your heart does that.

He filters the darkness through and into His glorious light

Washing the discrepancies of our failures and faulty thoughts in His shed blood.

We are washed, we are made new.

The water of His Word bathing the filth of the old man into the sea of forgetfulness.

God would reason with us

If we would listen.

He will draw you close and remove the shadows of that which would obscure His clear leading by His rod and staff.

Sit before Him

He has not gone any where.

He still sits on His throne, extending His scepter of goodness to you.

Come.

He is waiting.

The night is far spent. 

Give Him your tomorrow where His mercy is new for you.

~Debbie

Romans 13:12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.

Immovable Love

Several mornings ago in the quiet of stretching I started thinking about "The world" and "The Word" and our response to them.

Man recognizes man via admiration, etc.. This gamut of interest is a fluid thing that changes with the barometer of judgement for or against you.
One of the things I love about God is that He recognizes His own and is not fickle.
His love and favor are stable, never transitory.
God is trustworthy, faithful, just, and merciful.
As I mull over the attributes of God versus the attributes of man it becomes glaringly obvious who we should emulate, worship and give our allegiance too.

For me the choice is God.
I hope as you consider Him in His beauty of character and deed that you too will choose Him as well.
Check God out.
You can read His written Bio in the Bible and receive a new name and identity after accepting His Son, Jesus Christ as your Savior.
Click here for a brief introduction to asking Jesus into your heart.
His love, His truth accepted and responded to, will set you free with His Immovable Love for you.

Call upon the LORD, He will not reject you.
~Debbie

Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Behold the Man,The Word Became Flesh

Romans 1:6 
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

Acts 4:10-12
Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole.
This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.
Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
