Hello! Welcome to my blog! I have recorded past journal entries from devotional journaling as well as nature and travel photos. It is my aim to pass on the encouragement of the Lord to other sisters in Christ.

Be the sponge

I hear the Lord say:

You want to be busy but busy-ness is overrated. Let your hair down and enjoy spending extra time communing with Me. Be a sponge. Soak in more of Me. Then your longings will be satisfied. When a sponge is dry, it is lifeless and useless. When it absorbs water, it becomes pliable and useful. As it becomes full, it drips excess water. You be that sponge. Absorb all I have for you and drip excess Holy Spirit. Leave a trail of spirit-filled drips wherever you go.  I’ll refill you each morning.

Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you,

no one can enter the kingdom of God

unless they are born of water and the Spirit.

John 3:5  NIV
