I Choose Today to Believe Healing Runs Deeper

I was reading Acts 3 this morning—the story where Peter and John encounter the man crippled from birth, sitting at the temple gate called Beautiful. He was asking for money. That’s all he knew to ask for. He had likely given up hope for anything beyond daily provision, let alone complete healing. He was surviving, not thriving. His condition defined him. And then… everything changed. Peter looked straight at him and said, “Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.” And he did. But here’s the part that really struck me: the physical healing wasn’t the end of the story—it was just the beginning. It wasn’t about muscles suddenly working or legs straightening—it was about an invitation into a whole new life. A soul restored. A testimony birthed. So often we stop at the surface. We look for God to fix what’s broken in our lives—to meet the need in front of us—and we miss that He’s offering something much deeper: eternal healing, restoration, and relationship. This man had only ever known life from a crippled position. Just like sin cripples us from birth,

I Choose Today to Show Up

Last year, I found myself in a weakened state—and Satan seized the opportunity to torment me. I felt stuck. Unmotivated by almost everything—my work, my relationships, even my walk with the Lord. I was going through the motions without any real feeling. I lived like I was lost, and I didn’t know how to find my way out. That’s when the lies got louder. You hold no value. You’ll never measure up. Remember what they said about you? Satan repeated the negative words spoken over me in my early years and amplified them until I could barely hear the truth. And in that fragile place, I believed them. I remember taking a walk one day, crying out—literally crying out—to the Lord. And He met me. Right there. Right in the middle of the mess. All I had in me was this: I showed up. That’s what He spoke to my heart. Just show up. So I did. I showed up for quiet time, and He was there. He listened. He began healing my heart. He gently revealed the roots behind the perception of being stuck. He not only restored my faith—He strengthened it. He didn’t just revive my motivation—He gave

I Choose Today to Answer the Call to Action

When I first started writing this blog, I had no idea what I was doing—only that the Lord was prompting me to share. Since then, I’ve learned a lot about how to write, how to connect, and how to end a post with something called a call to action. In writing terms, a call to action encourages someone to respond. To move. To engage. But the truth is, calls to action didn’t originate with marketing or blogs. They’re woven all throughout Scripture. The Bible is full of divine invitations that required someone to take a step of faith: • Abraham was called to leave everything familiar and go to an unknown land. • He later readied his son for sacrifice in obedience to God’s voice. • Moses’ parents defied Pharaoh and hid their baby boy. • Noah built an ark when rain didn’t even exist yet. • Esther risked her life to stand before the king and save her people. • David stepped onto the battlefield with a sling and a stone. • Jesus Himself told us to go into all the world and preach the gospel. • And the greatest call to action? Jesus answering the call to be
