Psalm 91:5

I will not fear

"You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day,"

Every moment of your day, day or night, waking or sleeping, God is present with you.  You need not fear! There are so many things that are out of our control, but we can make a deliberate choice to take hold of God's promises and believe them.  The alternative, entertaining and dwelling on fearful thoughts is also a choice, but we can choose to replace fear with faith in God and His word.  In fact, we are encouraged, even commanded in all of scripture NOT to fear.  The opposite of fear is faith!  When we renew our minds and meditate on the reality of our Creator and the faithfulness of His word, fear is dispelled.  God's great love for us, shown most dramatically at the cross, (Romans 5:8) proves that no matter the darkness or evil surrounding us, God and His word triumphs!  Victoriously rising to life again, Jesus fulfilled all of God's promises to deliver us from our enemies: sin, death, and Satan.  The apostle John spoke of God's great love for us, asserting that "perfect love drives our all fear." Knowing who God is - the Almighty, Sovereign, personal God of creation - brings comfort and peace of mind in the midst of any trial.
No matter what comes against you, day or night, take hold of this promise!  God is true to His word and He will never fail you!

The Keywi Symbol

Beauty in nature reveals the artistry, creativity, and goodness of our Creator. Kiwi fruit is not just delicious to eat, but forms a beautiful starburst pattern when sliced in half. This is just one example of how we know and experience God’s goodness!  Psalm 34:8 encourages us to “Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.” (NIV) Just as God’s gift brings nourishment and delight to our senses, every set of Keywi™ cards made for this project is designed to be both beautiful and provide nourishment to the soul. As with any fruit, a kiwi begins as a tiny black seed. Planted in good soil with proper watering and light, the kiwi can grow into a vine and bear fruit.  Just as Jesus taught in the parable of the sower, my prayer is that the seeds of God’s word would fall on the good soil of your heart, producing in you a fruitful and abundantly fulfilling life. Bearing fruit requires that we remain in Christ.  ...

The Keywi Goes to Costa Rica

     Years before launching the Keywi project , I traveled to Costa Rica with my church for a short-term mission trip.  I had just finished graduate school and I was anxious to be out of the classroom and immersed in an overseas adventure! Nevertheless, despite the change of scenery and long-distance location, my studious habits still traveled with me. In preparation for the trip I  made up a ring-bound set of flashcards with Bible verses in Spanish. I wanted to have some familiarity with God’s word in the Costa Rican native tongue.  All my years in Spanish classes had focused on practical things like where to find the bathroom or directions to a hospital... but if someone were to ask me about Jesus or to pray for them, I wanted to be prepared for that too!  One of the girls at the school who  helped us paint during our mission trip While on the trip, we had a blast visiting orphans, painting churches and schools, and hosting an...
