Itโ€™s not you, itโ€™s Him.

He is here. Even if I forget He is here. If I donโ€™t move toward Him, if I canโ€™t remember what Iโ€™m supposed to do in the midst of trouble, I believe Jesus wants to catch my attention. Heโ€™s trying always to catch my eye. As I hear a whisper in my heart or feel … Continue reading Itโ€™s not you, itโ€™s Him.

Book Review: Walking on Water by Jennifer A. Miskov, Ph.D.

The title intrigued me first - Walking on Water - in reference to Peter's bold request to walk out on the stormy sea to meet Jesus in the darkness. The subtitle also caught my attention - experiencing a life of miracles, courageous faith, and union with God - because this is where I'm walking in my real life. I don't know anyone who doesn't need a miracle or courageous faith or union with God. Certainly, I need all of the above.

Jennifer A. Miskov did not disappoint as she boldly and honestly shares her journey with Jesus into deeper water and stormy seas resulting in a more intimate trusting and productive walk of faith.

In addition to the power of scripture combined with Jennifer's real-life testimony, she offers activation exercises at the end of each chapter. These life applications of scripture caused me to pause and ask Holy Spirit for deeper application of God's word in my life. My journey through Jennifer's book has been interactive and life-changing. I can't wait to pass this book to a friend and recommend it to many others. Most likely, Walking on Water will be a Christmas present or birthday gift for family and friends in the near future.
