March 23, 2013 ~ Kim Blenkhorn ~ Leave a comment

How often i come before the throne dragging my complaints behind me in a burlap sack. I plant them at the feet of … Continue reading about Forgiveness

In the Name of the King

March 23, 2013March 24, 2013 ~ Kim Blenkhorn ~ Leave a comment

no matter how long I have walked with Jesus, He never ceases to reveal something new to my fragile soul.  An ancient truth passed over many times scattered on the floor of my heart like un-chosen clothes until the proper occasion arises, and there it is ; there He is, holding this timeless precious idea … Continue reading In the Name of the King

March 1, 2013March 2, 2013 ~ Kim Blenkhorn ~ 3 Comments

My dear friend asked me, “why did you start a blog?” she resurrected the silent voices that kept me from starting a public blog for so long.  I didn’t know how to respond, except “ I just want a place to put all my words and thoughts and maybe encourage other people?” I wasn’t sure … Continue reading The Answer is a Question
