I’m excited to welcome Hartlee Kirk back to Hungry For More this week. If you read her last post, she was awaiting the birth of her son. Anderson finally arrived and the new family is doing great. So great in fact, that their story will once again touch your heart. ————————- I stood there, eyes brimming with tears, …
Hemorrhaging
My anxiety had teeth that summer day. In the quiet darkness of the early morning, apprehension stealthily lurked in my dreams and poised to strike with the initial ray of the sun. Before my first cup of coffee, my heart was hemorrhaging with fear as the deceitful claws of panic gripped my soul. I knew the feeling all too …
Simply Perfect
“Be perfect, even as your Father in heaven is perfect” (Matthew 5:48). I made a meal. I prayed a prayer. I read my Bible daily. “Be perfect, even as your Father in heaven is perfect” (Matthew 5:48). I fought with my kids. I argued with my husband. I hated time spent with a co-worker. “Be perfect, …
Wasai. Now that’s a Shield.
Today, we shift our attention to one of the most interesting and possibly surprising pieces of Spiritual Armor: the shield of faith. It is one heavy-duty item. Check out this informational video describing the Roman shield: Now, we learned that the first three, Truth, Righteousness and the Preparation of Peace, were all standard defensive equipment. And, I have …
Life, Liberty and Pursuing Him
My dear child, “Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty” (2 Corinthians 3:17). Freedom is not chiseled in stone, but found by looking for Me.

The Voice from Heaven
You are sludging through days of dirty diapers, sticky chairs and mounds of laundry. You are in a situation that you very much want to get away from. You have a critical decision before you that will change the course of your life. Ever wish a voice from heaven would just speak to you? It is …
Equipped to Hear
How often do you use your ears? Every day, right? Even if you live alone, you have the occasion daily to hear street noise, television, or the hum of the fridge. Our ears remain on constant alert. But for some reason, we don’t expect the same from our spiritual ears. If our pastor grants us a …
Baby Ears
Somehow, it took the birth of our third grandchild before I actually witnessed an infant hearing test. As the audiologist came into the hospital room she said quietly, “I’m going to do a hearing screening today called an auditory brainstem response.” And then as if reading our thoughts, “He’ll sleep right through it.” Silently, I did have a little panic …
The Father’s Turn
My child, You seek my blessing and I rejoice in your bent toward Me. I grant You My blessing through trials and you complain that I’ve not been fair. Remember, the path to the banquet is through the valley of shadows. Climb into My Arms and let Me carry you through. Shhhh….be silent and know that My Own …
A Note from Him
Dear, dear child, Turn aside and look at Me. Rest your face in My Hands. Stop the busy-ness and breathe. I want to talk to you. Yes, you. Be still and know. I came to renew. Including you in that work makes Me extremely full of joy. I know your weaknesses. Don’t worry about them. They …
