The tonal contrast between the boys vs. sloane and hurley in petals to the metal really gets me, especially because I like to imagine what it would be like if the focus was shifted. You have this tense lesbian drama with questions of power, control, and morality, one woman desperately trying to save her partner from unimaginable cosmic forces that have twisted her to the point where the former is not sure if she ever really knew the latter. and in the background you have three guys trying to hide a body

You're not powerful enough to ruin God's plan for you.

In case you thought you blew it.

In case you thought you were too far gone.

In case you are stuck in fear.

Rest in the fact that God is a God of redemption, and He knows your limitations.

Psalm 103:13-14 reminds us: "As a father shows compassion to his children, so the Lord shows compassion to those who fear Him. For He knows our frame; He remembers that we are dust."

If you're seeking to honor God, you're exactly where you need to be. He sees your heart, your sacrifices, and your obedience. It's not about perfection, but submission. God fulfills His plans through willing hearts.

Please don't think that you messed up the story.

Continue to show up faithfully, and know that God, in His faithfulness, will do His part and direct your path. 🌿

Quiet Time 3/19

What am I feeling today?

Tired but excited and grateful! Today is my last clinical rotation on the stroke unit and as much as I enjoyed it, I’m really looking forward to being able to rest and have my Tuesdays open!

Bible Plan: Spiritual Wilderness

In my younger years, it was hard for me to continue my devotions when I didn’t feel His presence for a while. It was discouraging, but I have learned a few things that have changed my perspective.

One thing I learned is that God promises to reward those who fervently seek Him, not who only find Him. We don’t seek God because He is lost. He is always near to us because His Spirit lives within us. We go to prayer not to find God but to be with Him. With that said, there are seasons in life where it seems and feels like His manifest presence is gone.

During these seasons you must understand that God is building up your faith since Jesus is the author and perfecter of your faith. Without faith, it is impossible to please God, and this faith gets stronger as your feelings get weaker. You are forced to rely only on God’s Word, not on your feelings or experiences. In seasons of your spiritual wilderness, only faith can help you come closer to God. If you live by your feelings, you will feel distant from God. When you go to God’s throne in spite of your negative feelings, you are building your faith.

I find it encouraging that He is not a rewarder of those who feel or experience Him but of those who do their best to seek Him.

King David was called “a man after His own heart”. God didn’t say that David had His heart; he was simply after it. David was in constant pursuit of God. In reading the Psalms that he wrote, we see his heart’s journey into the presence of God. At times he would complain that he didn’t feel God, yet he was still seeking after Him. God likes that. He wants us to pursue Him, even when we don’t feel like it.

In fact, not only does God love that we pursue Him, but He also rewards us. This truth has been the source of my encouragement. I don’t submit to my feelings, but I let my faith grow by going to God no matter what’s happening in my life.

There’s so much to get from this and I thought it was incredible! First off, seeking Him over finding Him. You can find God once because He’s not far from any one of us, but seeking Him is a daily thing. You have to consistently go after Him day after day, acknowledging Him when you feel like it is not biblically sound.

Additionally with the seeking, relying on His word instead of your feelings. The heart is deceitful and your feelings are not always accurate. We can sometimes let ourselves be controlled by our feelings and let them direct how we operate but that can lead us down the wrong path. God’s word will always be right and ready for you, so read it, use it, apply it, keep it in your heart!

1 Samuel 13:13-14 NIV

““You have done a foolish thing,” Samuel said. “You have not kept the command the Lord your God gave you; if you had, he would have established your kingdom over Israel for all time. But now your kingdom will not endure; the Lord has sought out a man after his own heart and appointed him ruler of his people, because you have not kept the Lord’s command.””

For reference, this is Samuel rebuking Saul and the one who talks about in regard to who the Lord has sought out is David. Even though David struggled a lot, He always sought after God, seeking Him daily and I really want to imitate that as best I can.

Hebrews 11:6 NIV

“And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.”

I mean this is very self explanatory and emphasizes the importance of our faith and seeking after God every single day.

Hebrews 12:1-2 NIV

“Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.”

“Let us run with perseverance” -> I want to place some emphasis on this. We can get tired and weary in our walk with God, especially when we’re in the spiritual wilderness where even our own emotions can be attacking our faith. But God wants us to persevere, we need to have our hearts set on the goal of it all, to be reunited with God after death! Also, Jesus is meant to guide us in this! He’s the perfected of our faith! Without him, we’d have no chance in having a relationship with God and it’s important to remember and be grateful for what he did for us on the cross.

those verses

Those verses. You know the ones I am talking about. They might not be the same ones I am going to share, but you have some verses that often come to your mind, of you share often or they give you what you need, when you need it and so much from God.

I share today a few of the verses that stick out for me and have for years. Yes, I have shared them before. They are good for me. I bet they are good for you as well. Check out mind. These are, those verses.

James 1:2-4 NASB

Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.

I first heard these when my aunt gave me some preaching tapes almost 40 years ago. Powerful truth. I need joy. How about you? I go through struggles. How about you?

Now, another verse that has been mine for years. This is good. One of those verses.

Colossians 3:2 NASB

Set your mind on the things above, not on the things that are on earth.

When you don’t know what to think about, think about this. I need this reminder. How about you?

I often catch myself being anxious and needing peace. Check out another of those verses.

Philippians 4:6-7 NASB

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Do you ever worry? Don’t lie. I need God to guard me, and those verses do that for me. And that is why my life verse is this…

James 1:5 NASB

But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him.

Those verses. They stand out or come up in my life and in my mind often, and I need them. How about you? What are “those verses” for you?

Prayer List:

Cathy Dunham’s sister Leslie battling cancer, Jenny Biggs, Amanda Hutchinson, Danny and Kathy Wilson, Anita Martin, Cathie Carter, Valerie Hirtriter, Lauren Whorley, 5 year old Ava, Timmy Howell, Dionna Cameron, Roger Marsh, Ricky and Angie Burnett, Felecia Watkins, Steve Bradshaw, and Ron Harris, Mission trips to West Virginia and Cuba in April (please consider supporting financially)

“Rescue me from my enemies, Lord, for I hide myself in you. Teach me to do your will, for you are my God; may your good Spirit lead me on level ground.” —Psalm 143:9-10 (NIV)

“Safe in God’s Hiding Place” By Joyce Meyer:

“David prays in today’s scriptures that God will lead him on level ground. I have always thought of this as a request for God to keep him emotionally stable. David was being pursued by his enemies and declared that God was his hiding place. When I pray, I often ask God to hide me in Him. We are kept safe in Him.

David had many opportunities to become flustered and allow his emotions to affect him in negative ways, so he prayed that God would keep him level or stable. Emotional stability is very important. We all have emotions, but we should not let them have us. With God’s help, we can learn to manage them instead of allowing them to manage us. We can live beyond our feelings by knowing and acting on God’s Word rather than on the way we feel.

We cannot do this by willpower alone; we need God’s grace. We need His help and power because emotions can be very strong, and without God’s help, they will lead us in wrong directions.

Have you been allowing your feelings to control you? If so, begin today to ask God to lead you on level ground.

Prayer of the Day: Father, I am sorry for letting my emotions lead me at times and I ask You to keep me stable and lead me on level ground.”

One big thing I'm taking into 2024:

Letting God lead the way.

Letting God lead doesn't always look the way you think it does. Oftentimes, it leads you into the uncomfortable. It leads you into leaning not on your own understanding, even when your understanding looks convincing. It leads you into waiting and praying longer than you expected. It leads you into making decisions that don't always seem to make sense.

But praise God. I'm so grateful for the times I let God lead in 2023.

When you let God lead, you are letting the all-knowing Father show you who He is. You get to see Him show up. You see the fruit of obedience. You see that His ways are the best. You see answered prayers. You experience His joy and provision in the most unexpected moments.

Quiet Time 2/25

What am I feeling today?

There’s no emotion that comes to the forefront of my mind. I just know that I have a lot of work to do since this coming week is midterms. I just need to lock in and get the work done.

Luke 4 NIV

(v. 1-2) “Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, left the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, where for forty days he was tempted by the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and at the end of them he was hungry.”

Confirmation that he was full of the Holy Spirit but it was also the Spirit that led him into the wilderness. Obviously God knew that Jesus would be tempted upon him being led there, but He allowed it to happen. I think we can apply this to ourselves, He doesn’t give us more than we can handle.

(v. 5-7) “The devil led him up to a high place and showed him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world. And he said to him, “I will give you all their authority and splendor; it has been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want to. If you worship me, it will all be yours.””

The devil states here that all the authority over the kingdoms of the world has been given to him and that he can give it to anyone he wants to. Now we know in Matthew 28 Jesus states that all authority in Heaven and on earth has been given to him. But when this occurred in the wilderness, that wasn’t the case yet. It’s just interesting to see here the devil claiming his power over the world.

(v. 9-12) “The devil led him to Jerusalem and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down from here. For it is written: “ ‘He will command his angels concerning you to guard you carefully; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’” Jesus answered, “It is said: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’””

Proof that the devil knows the scripture and he probably knows it better than all of us. Also proof that just because you have a head knowledge of what the word of God is doesn’t mean anything if you don’t put it into practice and transform your life around it. Also, just Jesus stating that we’re not to put God to the test which is good advice for all of us.

(v. 41) “Moreover, demons came out of many people, shouting, “You are the Son of God!” But he rebuked them and would not allow them to speak, because they knew he was the Messiah.”

Even the demons knew who Jesus was (again proving that just because you acknowledge Jesus as the Son of God and the Messiah, does not mean you are saved, you must make him your Lord!). Also find it interesting that Jesus didn’t want them saying who he was in the beginning.

(v. 43) “But he said, “I must proclaim the good news of the kingdom of God to the other towns also, because that is why I was sent.””

Just Jesus stating that his purpose in being sent here was to proclaim the good news of the kingdom of God. And how grateful we all are for it because otherwise how would we have known?

Jesus is most important

The following e-devotion was first shared in August of 2020. It remains true and strong today.

Colossians 3:3-4 NLT

But Jesus deserves far more glory than Moses, just as a person who builds a house deserves more praise than the house itself. 4 For every house has a builder, but the one who built everything is God.

Jesus is more important than anyone or anything else. There I said it.

This is not a popularity contest or a shouting match to get the most attention. This is not a protest or a political statement. Simply I acknowledge that my relationship with the one true and living God is the most important thing. And it always will be.

If we could just for a moment focus on what matters, it might make more sense of all that is going on around the world. Please know that this is not a statement to be controversial. In fact this is just a statement of worship AND of worry.

Jesus is the most important.

No matter who is president, Jesus is still God and the only way to heaven.

Not matter the presence of the cancer or some other sickness or addiction, Jesus is still the help, hope and healer.

No matter the path of a storm or the impact left behind, Jesus is still peace and His presence is real.

For a few minutes today focus on the truth that Jesus is the most important.
