encouraging talks

Hello Ladies,

2022 has come in like a storm here in Northern Idaho.  Wait, not like a storm, but literally came in with a storm…. snowstorms to be exact!

I am so happy to be with you today in this new year.  I pray that your start to 2022 has been just what the Lord has called you to.

Your print-able link is at the end of this description for you to print it off and pin it up to be encouraged with God’s word.

Come and join me on my podcast today for a fun story about how our 2022 started and what the “KEY” is for you and I this year in 2022.

See you there!

Blessings, 
Krista

Hello Ladies,

Merry Christmas!

I want to give you a little gift to print off.  Your Christmas print-able says “Joy to the World” and I want to tell you that…

I fixed my Joy!

For those who did not listen to my podcast this week, titled: Bethlehem, Everyone wants to go there, this is the “Joy” sign I bought at my local Dollar Store and talked about in my podcast. 

I love this sign!

Soon after hanging it on my pantry door I found that the extra flourish on the “J” was broken off.  With it broken the “J” was not as big, pronounced and outstanding as it once was.  In my podcast, I stated that I was going to fix that “J”.  And well… I did!

Have any of you had your JOY broken?  I want to tell you the truth.  Sometimes we have our Joy fixed by the Lord and all is right again.  Other times we have our Joy fixed and we know in our hearts the Joy of the Lord and we know in our hearts and minds who is in control, we know where our eternal home is, we are so grateful for Jesus and his gift of salvation, but we still have to endure some situations in this world until the Lord’s timing is reached for them to change and/or be gone and this can take a long time of enduring on our part.

If this is where you are this Christmas ladies, sing your heart out with this hymn:  This well known, popular hymn is about Jesus’ return!

• Joy to the world! the Lord is come;
  Let earth receive her King;
  Let every heart prepare him room,
  And heaven and nature sing,
• Joy to the world! the Savior reigns;
  Let men their songs employ;
  While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains
  Repeat the sounding joy,
• No more let sins and sorrows grow,
  Nor thorns infest the ground;
  He comes to make His blessings flow
  Far as the curse is found,
• He rules the world with truth and grace,
  And makes the nations prove
  The glories of His righteousness,
  And wonders of His love.

May you have JOY this Christmas and may you have JOY this coming year amidst the calm and amidst the storms of life.  Let your Joy be big, pronounced and outstanding once again!

I want to encourage you to print off my print-able, Joy to the World and be reminded, Jesus is coming back to set all things right!  So, we can have JOY amidst our life.

Hello Ladies,

Christmas is just about here!  Are you ready? Ready to Celebrate?

Bethlehem, during the birth of Jesus was all about the busy.  But was this typical for the small town that was settled in the hills about 6 miles southwest of Jerusalem?

Come and join me on my podcast as we look into some facts about Bethlehem and see how the Lord uses the unexpected for exceptional purposes.

Also print your color-able that is the third design in my Color, Cut and Create Coloring Book, Journey to Jesus and while coloring your print-able, remember how God used a small town through out history to being about the birth of His son, who will be the Savior to all who believe in Him.

May you have a blessed and love-filled Christmas

Hello Ladies!

I am so glad to be with you today after a little break.

I have been working on my Color, Cut and Create Coloring book titled JOURNEY TO JESUS.  To make a long story short, I am shooting for a Spring of 2022  launch.  If you would like to hear more about my journey you can listen to my podcast for today and also….

Today on my podcast we are looking into what God says about being THANK-filled.

• When we are filled with thankfulness, it chases away so many things.
  • It chases away:
    • fear, worry, anxiety, impulsivity, doubt, depression, and feelings of lack.
    • Why?
      • Because we are no longer focused on ourselves, but on God and all that He wants for us, all that He has done for us, and all that He will do for us. Our eyes are turned outward and upward. Amen.

I have a print-able for you today that I want to encourage you to print off, pin up, hang up to be reminded of God’s word and all that God wants for you in this life and the life to come!  The link is below.

So, Ladies, Let’s be thank-filled!

May you have a blessed and thank-filled Thanksgiving.

Do you believe this?!?

It is amazing what humility will do for you, your family, your relationships and even your country!

Ladies does this make you want to be on your knees daily to come before the Lord in humility to repent, pray and seek His face?

Let’s take a moment and look at 2 Chronicles 7:14 – The Lord is speaking here to Solomon and He says:  if My people who are called by name will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

Now let’s look at our questions:

• Am I humble?
  • Are you humble?
  • When you are humble you will be driven to turn from your wicked, sinful ways.
• What does being humble look like?
  • Being humble is coming before the Lord in prayer and seeking His face
  • and asking Him to forgive your sins and then you STOP doing the sinful things in your life.
• Why does God tell us, tell you, to be humble?
  • In this verse God tells us to be humble, pray, and seek His face and stop our wicked, sinful ways so we can be forgiven and healing can begin.
• And… How would the world look if we did this one thing: Be Humble? 
  • If we were ALL humble and in our humility we prayed and sought the Lord and asked Him to forgive all the sinful things we did and then we stopped our wicked ways, God would be able to hear us (because our sin would not be blocking our communication) and He would forgive us and then…ready?…this is incredible!…GOD WOULD HEAL OUR LAND!

Can you believe it?  We are on week 6 of looking into God’s word to read about what He says about HUMILITY.

Let’s take a moment to evaluate ourselves in this area of Humility.

• How are you doing in regards to having humility in your life? 
• Have you needed to make some adjustments on: 
  • how you do things,
  • how you approach situations or
  • how you relate to people?

• Am I humble?
  • Are you humble?  When you are humble, it’s wages or payment to us are riches, honor and life.
• What does being humble look like?
  • First humility is the fear of the Lord.  Are you willing to come under the Lord and accept Jesus as your savior and then come under the Lord’s statues and guidelines to living because you know that when you do you will be with the Lord forever and He will be with you in this present life.
• Why does God tell us, tell you, to be humble?
  • In this proverb it tells you that humility is the fear of the Lord and when you have humility you will then have riches, honor and life.
  • Riches, honor and life can mean: riches in God’s grace, honor from the Lord and life meaning life eternal.
• And… How would the world look if we did this one thing: Be Humble? 
  • If we all had humility we would fear the Lord who is the giver of riches, His grace, the giver of honor, and the giver of life eternal.
  • We would recognize the without the Lord we would have nothing and that with he Lord we would have everything!  We would be concentrating on pleasing God and not ourselves.  Selfishness would be nonexistent and with everyone being self-less basic needs would be met for everyone.  How heavenly in that. 🙂
