Keep Going…keep Sowing! – Wisdom Spotlight
While writing my Ministry Report and thinking about my job here, I thought about how It involves planting seeds in tiny hearts and minds. Little bits of spiritual knowledge mixed in with a lot of fun and play. God placed me here to sow, knowing it will be a few more seasons before some of the seeds are watered enough to take root and grow. More than likely, it will not be me that sees the finished work. Isn’t that true about so many things in life? We sow seeds, and then we wait. And […]

Warmest greetings beautiful women of Cold Springs Church and community,It’s my joy to share with you this encouragement that’s been on my heart and mind this week. As women, we inherently have a tendency to judge ourselves harshly and hold ourselves to a very high standard of conduct and performance. Perhaps it’s because we are so many things to so many people at the same time. What a gift that is! We are each made up of varying degrees of mother/daughter, professional/career, woma […]

“Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep. Live in harmony with one another. Do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly. Never be wise in your own sight. Repay no one evil for evil, but give thought to do what is honorable in the sight of all. If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.” Romans 12:15-18Isn’t is interesting that the above passage urges us to share in the emotions of those around us right before it exhorts us to be harm […]

God’s Choices About the Creation of the World:Create NothingCreate No Good or EvilCreate Only GoodCreate the Possibility of Good & Evil = Freewill“God created things which had free will. That means creatures which can go wrong or right. Some people think they can imagine a creature which was free but had no possibility of going wrong, but I can’t. If a thing is free to be good, it’s also free to be bad. And free will is what has made evil possible. Why, then, did God give them f […]

When I was asked to write a Wisdom Spotlight for the blog I decided to take it literally and write about wisdom. Wisdom is not something we naturally have. We’re not born with it and we can’t acquire it from the world. True wisdom comes from God. The Bible says,“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.” Proverbs 9:10 That’s where wisdom starts- with God […]

Have you ever signed up for something and later regretted it? The best scenario is when you willingly pay for something, followed by “What was I thinking?”. That was my experience when I signed myself and my kids up for trapeze school at the Santa Monica Pier. I was pulled by the thought of the lifelong memories we’d make, then I was tugged by the fear for my life. Tug and pull: such i […]

As a support to ministries as a whole, it is hard to know which specific ministry I fit in. I support all ministries in any way I can! I guess you can say I have a foot in each branch of ministry here at Cold Springs, and what a blessing that is! The way in which I support each area varies, but I love being involved where I can. This past week I had the opportunity to work closely with pastors D […]
