Hearts full of compassion, and tears shed for those who are disaster victims has been the topic of discussion surrounding many of us this week.
So hard to fathom the destruction that is being witnessed, and that looms over a torn country. I am reminded of Jesus’ words to Jerusalem. How He longed to shelter them under His wings, and he wept.
God is love! (1 John 4:7-12) How can we believe that God the author of compassion would be less compassionate than us? This week I am leaving a link to a site that tells us how to pray for disaster victims at the bottom of this post. When we pray we need to remember our God hears our prayers before we even speak them. (Isaiah 65:24) We should ask, and then rest that God will answer whatever we ask in Jesus name according to His will which is only good. (John 14:12-13) The thief comes to steal and to kill and destroy, but Jesus came that we might have life abundant. (John 10:10) Before you pray settle it in your mind that Christ came that all might be saved, He gave His life because “God so loved the world…” (John 3:16) The reason we are still here is to witness to others that they would be saved from eternal death. Thank you for praying for those who so desperately need our prayers. Praying for you too Beloved❤ Melinda

Really y’all I’m just another Samaritan woman seeking living water and pouring out where I see need for encouragement. I am 48, mother to four girls ages 16-26, Gigi to the most handsome 2-year-old little boy, Fibromyalgia warrior, minister, writer, and a lifetime learner.
I am writing my first book, slowly but surely, six chapters in, as our blessed first love has called me to share His glory in my story. I feel lost in that familiar desert place, and thankful for the manna that is there miraculously every day. I am overcoming hour by hour the condemning voices of the enemy and learning to love myself. It has been an arduous journey. This wordsmith journey, but so worth it.
I became a licensed minister in 2010. However, I do not currently work in the ministry. I share Christ's love through devotional blogging. I have a degree in Church Ministry, was pursuing my degree in Christian Care and Counseling at Oral Roberts University, but now am pursuing Life Coaching, and Neurolinguistic Programming Master Practioner Certifications and a business license.
I am a certified women’s biblical counselor through the Extraordinary Women's program at Light University. I am working on their Addiction and Recovery program now too. Yes, I am a glutton for punishment with a wealth of life experiences with which I can minister comfort to others.
I'm a lover of a good book, writing, singing, and music, and my nemesis is the perpetual laundry pile.
Blessings to you and yours,
<3Melinda
