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!

April - May Prayer Letter 2014

Dear friends and family, I hope you all had a wonderful Easter weekend.  Praise God, Jesus is risen indeed!   I just wanted to share a few updates and  prayer  requests for the  Keywi  Card project: Please  pray  for the t rade show in Atlanta, Georgia! This June 22-25,  Keywi  Cards will be exhibiting at the International Christian Retail Show in Atlanta, Georgia ( http://christianretailshow. com/ ).   Nearly every major Christian bookstore retailer and distributor will be there along with many well-know Christian authors and speakers.  A s you can imagine, preparations for this show are quite extensive and I have often felt stressed and overwhelmed over the last few weeks.   I could really use  prayer  for balance, guidance, wisdom, and time management.   There are so many things that still need to be accomplished in a short period of time.  I'm making a catalog, designing hang tags and UPC ...

God's Word

    As I look back over the last ten years of my life and back to that moment when I memorized Psalm 138:8 in 2003, “ The Lord will fulfill His purpose for me; Your love, O Lord, endures forever, do not abandon the works of Your hands .” (NIV ’83) I’m reminded of one thing that remained constant throughout those years: God’s word. As I was pursuing various career paths, jobs, classes, businesses, and relationships, one thing remained the same: God, His enduring love, and the faithfulness of His word and His promises. In the midst of all we go through and all we encounter in life, God has given us the unshakable and unchangeable truth of His word. God’s word is truth that endures forever because by His very nature, God is eternal and unchangeable. Jesus said: “ Heaven and earth will pass away but my words will never pass away ” (Matt 24:35, NIV) The apostle Peter quoted Isaiah: “ All people are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field; the ...

Coffee and Isaias 53:4-6

Wrapping my hands around my coffee mug, I began gingerly: "Ciertamente él cargó con nuestras enfermedades y soportó nuestros dolores..." ...I paused mid-sentence and cleared my throat, I didn't want my Spanish-speaking friend to think I was just showing-off my scripture knowledge, but his eager eyes coaxed me to continue: "pero nosotros lo consideramos herido, golpeado por Dios, y humillado..." I paused again, this time searching for the next line. Why couldn't I remember? Even though this was something I had memorized, conversing in Spanish was still a bit of a challenge for me... . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Tomey, a friend I had met in Spain, had met up with me for coffee that evening.  After exchanging some small talk, seemingly out of nowhere he had asked me about my relationship with Jesus...with genuine interest.
