IS THERE STILL MERCY LEFT FOR ME???

By Anita Mondragon
I have been thinking a lot about God’s mercy lately…how deep, and wide His love and grace reach.  Even though I was brought up in a Pastor’s home, and heard about Jesus, I strayed far, far from that truth for a long time.  When I finally came to the end of myself, I wondered if there was any mercy left for me…or if I had somehow exhausted the longsuffering of God.  The other day, as I sat pondering, and remembering how many times He has rescued me, I wrote this poem.  Thank God for His mercy and grace!

THE CAGE

By Anita Mondragon

As many of you know, my dad was a Baptist Preacher for over 40 years.  He used many illustrations in his sermons to get his point across.  He likened them to parables that Jesus used in the Bible so that folks could understand more easily.

The following, is based on one of the illustrations he used.  I heard it many times during my growing up years, and turned it into a poem for my grandchildren. -anita

WHERE THE BLOOD FELL…

By Anita Mondragon
 

As many of you already know, movies speak to me.  I can see Biblical applications in almost any movie I watch.  

Having said that, I was watching a Star Wars movie the other night…for the umpteenth time, when a phrase I’d never picked up on fell on my ears.


LIFE COACHES…HOW DO YOU FIND THE BEST ONE?

Now days…you hear a lot about Life Coaches.  Everyone wants their own, ‘personal” life coach.  I know I need to make some changes in my own life…so I went to google to find out exactly just what a life coach really is.  Here’s what google told me….


THE PAGES OF YOUR STORY…

Yesterday, in-between loads of laundry, I watched a movie called, Priceless.  It was about human trafficking.  I don’t want to share the whole story with you…you need to watch it, but let’s just say there was a guy trying to make a quick buck, and he unknowingly got entangled in this awful business.
