Amy Carmichael served Jesus faithfully and effectively in India until 1951. She knew Him well and shared that knowledge with all who would listen. Some of her knowledge of Him includes: “You can give without loving, but you cannot love without giving.” “Satan is much more in earnest than we are – he buys up the opportunity while we are […]
Amy Carmichael was born in Ireland in 1867, and died in India in 1951. She understood that difficulties in life are our trip with Jesus through the desert of preparation. The more we take advantage of the difficulties as opportunities to be with Him, the more they make us like Him. This poem of hers is called “No Scar?” Hast […]
You need me on days. And I need you. We need the Holy Spirit in each other. We can’t see everything well. The two ways we can find in the teachings of Jesus on getting rid of sight-limiting items in our eyes are: If its a log, remove it yourself If its a speck, get some help from another believer […]
Matthew 3:16 – When Jesus was baptized by his cousin John in the river, Heaven opened and the Spirit of God came down on Him. The Holy Spirit then did something that He loves to do after He baptizes someone: He drove Jesus out into the wilderness. In the place of lack and pain and threats of more, Jesus encountered […]

The place most safe and blessed, the position most protected and provided for, is the place of being completely surrendered to the ownership and leadership of the King of kings. The sphere where His lovingkindness rules is a place of life and peace and joy in His Spirit. The Kingdom of Jesus is that place – it is the place […]
The descendants of Eliphaz, Bildad, & Zophar all have websites and YouTube channels. These fountains of information are filled with water that has been poisoned with presumption, deception, and misinterpreted experiences. They would like to advise me on health, car repair, recipes, investments, and preparation for the end of the world. Many of them can prove they are right by […]
On days, we react to opportunities and dangers, and to situations that we cannot identify as either. Sometimes we clearly sense the leadership of the Holy One to answer in a certain way. Other times, we respond with no thought at all about any things but our rights, our feelings, or our fears. Even after some of our greatest errors […]
In those days there was again a large crowd, and they had nothing to eat. He summoned the disciples and said to them, “I have compassion on the crowd, because they’ve already stayed with Me three days and have nothing to eat.
