With Jesus There is Always Forgiveness

Kim Ketola became a friend of mine completely by accident. Although I think we can agree that in God’s eyes there are no accidents, right?

I was at the annual Set Apart Conference with some of my friends and I was having a rough morning giving in to some very prideful thoughts and jealousy (see that word lousy in there and that’s just how I felt!) I decided not to take in the morning workshop as the one I desired to go to was full. So I rambled around and found myself in the area where all the vendor tables were set up. I then promptly slid through Kim’s table to get to another table and tripped over her cord for the computer she had set up, ending up breaking it to boot! Ugh, I felt awful!

Kim is a gentle kind person and she said that’s okay I might have another one. And then proceeded with “I think you need to sit down here and tell me what’s going on.” I then explained that I was having a bad morning (admitting my attitude was rotten) as she then coaxed me into telling my story.

You know those times when you look back and go ‘just how in the world did that happen?’ Well God indeed does work in mysterious ways for sure. She ended up giving me one of her books and her CD demo to take back to the radio station to see if we would be interested in playing her program, “Cradle My Heart”.

Eventually, we did start carrying the program and that is when Kim asked if I would like to be on her program and share my story. Naturally, I said sure. What a blessing to be live on Sanctity of Human Life Sunday in 2014 and share my redemption story. You can listen here in the archives of the program…

It’s not too late for you to find God’s love today

 

 

 

I know that I know there are many women out there who need to grasp the Father’s love for them. Because He forgives even the worst of sins. Or more properly said, His love that placed Jesus on the cross, would cover all sin!

Please, reach out and even contact me, Kim Ketola at Cradle My Heart or another trustworthy person who can get you help for the healing you are longing to finally have for your past. The past being yesterday or 14 years after coming to Jesus at 30 like I did. My hurt was buried so deep that I didn’t know it was there!

Don’t wait, friend! Peace is intended for those who call upon the name of Jesus!

 

Five Minute Friday–Red

Joining a fun Five Minute Friday blog posting on the queue Red…here we go:

Red, love the color in certain shades but I would say that because it is almost fall…that it is those lovely red hues

that catch my attention. Here in the “Icebox of the Nation” they really stand out because they are minimally placed in the mixture of green and gold.

I love fall and I am so thankful for this time of year because it is when I am comfortable being outside. Less bug activity, much cooler (don’t do that 80 degree stuff very well) and well..I just love being out doors!

Camp retreats coming up! One for my church women at Bluewater Covenant Camp and then speaking for one at Crossroads Covenant the first weekend in October.

So is fall a busy time for you? Red, the color of fall maple leaves, harvested red tomatoes, red beets and I love the red we painted on our doors for the house and garage (small one on the garage:0)
