Teresa Poucher Have you ever had an individual in your life for whom you cared deeply? ‘Seems like a stranger can say something ugly to you, and you can forgive and get over it. Yet, when it’s close to home, or someone for whom you care, the sting lingers. If you spend a lot ofContinue reading “Don’t Take it Personally”

Teresa Poucher   I have an old anniversary clock that hasn’t worked for at least 12 years. Why do I keep it? It brings back memories as far back as I can recall. It is from Mom and Dad. This clock is special to me, especially since I was only eight when he passed fromContinue reading “It’s Time”

Teresa Poucher   I was curious how in the Old Testament,the people called God many things.   He has so many titles.  When Moses went to Pharaoh, he asked God, “Who do I say sent me?” God responded, “I AM THAT I AM.”  How in the world can the three letters, I AM, be so powerful?  He is self-sufficientand self-sustaining.  He is whatever you need in your life.       He gave usContinue reading “Jesus Name”

Teresa Poucher We all know a wayward soul, maybe a child, husband, or siblings. It is heartbreaking as well as discouraging.       Years ago, God spoke to my heart, “I’m going to give you a Lazarus miracle.”  The following week my pastor preached on the miracle of Lazarus.  I felt the confirmation and was super excited.       Well, it’s been years andContinue reading “Wayward Souls”

Teresa Poucher   I lost a set of keys once; it was a cool spring evening.  I found them the following fall in a coat pocket.  We don’t get lost or lose things on purpose; it happens when we are careless.     In Luke chapter 15, we read of the lost sheep, a lost coin, and a young man we know as “the prodigal son.”     Sheep are very vulnerable,Continue reading “Things That are Lost”

Teresa Poucher My goodness, who doesn’t like omelets?  Someone allergic to eggs.  They are one of the healthiest breakfast foods we can enjoy, especially if loaded with vegetables. With a couple of hundred recipes to choose from, let’s break the yoke.     Sometimes we have a different type of yoke.  Webster’s dictionary defines a yoke as a mark ofContinue reading “It’s Time to Make an Omelet”

Teresa Poucher Consider the following passage from II Kings 4:1-7: 1 “Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets unto Elisha, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest that thy servant did fear the Lord: and the creditor is come to take unto him myContinue reading “Keep Pouring”

Teresa Poucher   We say we want to get closer to God.  What is it that is creating a distance between us?  We go to church, read our Bible, pray and fast. Yet, it seems there is still something lacking.  I ask myself, is there sin in my life?     The other day I was talking to someone, andContinue reading “More of God”

Teresa Poucher Did you get sung to sleep?  Chances are if you did, you also sang your little ones to sleep as well.  These songs evolved, depending on when and where you lived.  Parents have sung lullabies dating back 4000 years.  Many seemed to contain shaky undertones as well as hopes and dreams for better days.  It didn’t matter whether your voice was beautiful orContinue reading “Lullaby”

Teresa Poucher How did that work for you?  Did you catch every red light?  Did the shortest line at the grocery store end up in a glitch?  I don’t want to pray for patience; I will try to grow in it. Thank you!     Years ago, I overheard someone pray, “God, I want to trust you.”  Did they realizeContinue reading “Have You Ever Prayed For Patience?”
