Jonathan Cahn – One For Israel

May 1, 2020May 4, 2020 ~ Kim Blenkhorn ~ Leave a comment

Pray for our nations leaders!

May 1, 2020May 2, 2024 ~ Kim Blenkhorn ~ Leave a comment

One thing I’m reminded of these days is that I’m not responsible for outcomes. I will be accountable to God for what I did with his instructions. Regardless of the outcome I may or may not want. God is watching over his word to perform it and God is responsible for the outcome. I know … Continue reading Pray for our nations leaders!

Life is a wilderness

April 22, 2020May 4, 2020 ~ Kim Blenkhorn ~ 1 Comment

We are in the wilderness. A wilderness without sandstorm, a wilderness without manna or desert heat, a wilderness day after day, longing after longing, hoping pleading , praying, complaining, rejoicing grumbling, fighting, fearing and worrying. God brings his covenanted people whom he has delivered from slavery immediately into the wilderness. Like with Jacob with Israel, … Continue reading Life is a wilderness

When Christians are too “others-centered”

September 6, 2019May 6, 2020 ~ Kim Blenkhorn ~ Leave a comment

  Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interests but also to the interests of others. Philippians 2:3-4 This is a beautiful sermon Paul wrote on God's instruction from Leviticus, to Love your neighbor as … Continue reading When Christians are too “others-centered”

I am not in control of My teens journey towards God.

September 5, 2019May 8, 2020 ~ Kim Blenkhorn ~ Leave a comment

Yesterday was the first day of 24 days of my prayer challenge. The focus was on praying for my teens honesty. I started the prayer with my own honesty with God.  I have been struggling to pray this summer. I was honest about my feelings, my anger and my fear and that honesty, I came … Continue reading I am not in control of My teens journey towards God.

1 Samuel 2:1–11 — Actions Are Weighed

1 Samuel 2:1–11 — Actions Are Weighed

So much is happening in Hannah’s song. It is more than simple gratitude for God giving her a child. In fact, we see no direct mention of, “the child.” Instead, we see the language consistent with victory—victory over her enemy, over her hardship. Peninnah’s name is often understood to relate to “face” or “pearl,” and […]

Bitter of Soul – I Samuel 1:1–11

Bitter of Soul – I Samuel 1:1–11

“The Lord had closed Hannah’s womb.” Her barrenness was not accidental. Year after year she was provoked by Peninnah, her rival. She wept. She would not eat. She was deeply distressed and bitter in soul. How many times have I been warned about bitterness taking root in my heart — only to sink deeper into […]

The Opal Ring

The Opal Ring

In middle school, I was assigned to write a short story. I must have mentioned it to my dad. I remember him leading me into his bedroom — the room that was always locked, always shut. It felt forbidden. There was a bathroom no one was allowed to use, a secret closet with, a door […]

ADHD and Neurodiversity: A Different Way of Thinking About Differences

ADHD and Neurodiversity: A Different Way of Thinking About Differences

Perhaps my children and family members don’t understand my need to write.  When we argue, I send long text threads — pages of information, systematic logic, emotion carefully laid out in paragraphs. When my son was pledging a fraternity, I texted him daily with my fears and concerns. One day he replied,“Mom, it’s overwhelming and […]

Everything That Was Written — Luke 24

Everything That Was Written — Luke 24

Then he said to them, “These are my words that I spoke to you while I was still with you, that everything written about me in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled.” 24:44 We come to the very end of Luke’s account of Jesus’ earthly ministry. Luke was […]
