This post is part of the weekly Five Minute Friday link-up! So, as my favorite 2 year old says crouching low to the ground… ready, set, GO!
Worth. As soon as I read this word, my mind searches back to a psalm I recently pondered. Yes, Psalm 8 – O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth! And there it is…one of the verses… What is man that You are mindful of him?
This psalm reminds us of the majesty of our God; He is the Creator of the stars, the moon, the sun – all the works of His fingers. Truly all of Creation is the work of His Majestic imagination! And yet, the psalmist asks a great question… What is man that You are mindful of him?
The answer: We are His creation. Genesis 1 and 2 – we are created in God’s image. And because He created each one of us according to His divine imagination and because of His desire to create community for fellowship with His creation – we have WORTH. Every person, psalm 139, YOU – fearfully and wonderfully made, knit together in your mother’s womb – uniquely designed, purposely crafted on purpose in the image of God for a purpose to be fulfilled through your unique life.
God created you. God created me. And because we are made in His image, we have WORTH!

I am a curious follower of Jesus. I have been since my early twenties when I met Him personally and received miraculous healing in my body and mind.
After many years of marriage and raising sons into the teen years, I received a challenge to explore the duplicity of my spoken faith followed up by my fearful living choices. It was my two sons, who loved me enough to confront me with the truth. They called out the hypocrisy of fear, and I am forever thankful.
Chips off my proverbial block! I determined then to overcome fear with faith that was more than words.
Years ago, with my eyes open to my sin of unbelief I made a decision to leave the desert wandering behind and set out to pursue the abundant life Jesus promised His disciples. God has been faithful to teach me, grow me up, and help me to let go of all the things that used to mean security to me.
My passion is to walk so closely to Jesus that others want to know Him too. I love to introduce women to Him as we walk, talk, and work together hand in hand through everyday life. Nothing thrills me more than to watch someone fall in love with Jesus through His word; learning to trust His heart and receive His great love!
I have been married to my dear man for over 36 rollercoaster years. We're simply thrilled that our latter days are more joyful and purposeful than our first. Together we have helped to grow two young men, who are now married with their own families. God is continuing to help them write their own faith stories. Additionally, we share our home with an old rescue pup.
I look forward to having you join me here to fix our eyes on Jesus and shine with His radiance,
Lisa
