The Source of Hope

I am blessed to have an amazing husband who is as passionate about sharing God's Word as I am. I love how the Lord uses him to speak in a way I can't.

Written by Garrett

Romans 15:13

^“I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit.”

Do you ever feel tired, empty, hopeless, lonely, or even miserable?  We all struggle with different things from time to time throughout our hectic lives.  Satan is the king of busyness and hopelessness.  He will completely pollute our thoughts and blind us to our purpose in life.  He can even make us feel so hopeless that we hinder or limit the power of the Holy Spirit that is within us. 

So many times I get caught up in problems of the world or my profession that I lose sight of the “Source of Hope”.  Does this sound familiar?  God is referred to as many things and one of them is the “Source of Hope”.  He is the only hope.  Satan confuses so many people when it comes to hope.  Look around at all the addictions people struggle with.   This even leads to depression.   

Paul was so filled with the Holy Spirit that he would sing, preach, write, and pray about Christ while he was in prison.  I don’t know about you, but it would be extremely hard for me to have such a positive attitude and make the impact that Paul did under those types of circumstances.  We can learn a lot from Paul and the example he was.  He was the definition of Light in a dark world.  I truly believe that Christ provided this example to us for the simple reason of completely depending on God for our “Source of Hope”.  This is what Paul had.  He didn’t do this himself.  Christ did it through him and Paul allowed himself to be a tool for God to speak through.  We must do the same thing no matter our circumstances or situations in life.  Whether we are diagnosed with an illness, broke, broken, confused, discouraged, tired, depressed, sick, etc…  We have to believe in Christ and choose to allow the Holy Spirit to produce fruit throughout our life. 

Father thank you for creating the Word to guide us!  Lord you knew we could not do it on our own.  I pray that we will allow you to be the source of Hope throughout our lives and not turn to any other temporary solutions.  I pray that we remain strong in you.  I lift up all the people who feel hopeless today and ask that you comfort them and show them truth.  Give them Peace and Joy as you guide and direct their paths.  Amen.

Consider this….

“So the LORD sent this message through the prophet Haggai: Why are you living in luxurious houses while my house lies in ruins? This is what the LORD Almighty says: Consider how things are going for you! You have planted much but harvested little. You have food to eat, but not enough to fill you up. You have wine to drink, but not enough to satisfy your thirst. You have clothing to wear, but not enough to keep you warm. Your wages disappear as though you were putting them in pockets filled with holes!” Haggai 1:3-6

Consider how things are going for you. Maybe in your assessment you feel as though things are pretty good. In this period of your life you are content.

But may I ask if that contentment comes from the perspective of the world?

Are you well off according to the standards of man? Is your worldly home in better condition than the house of the Lord?

What harvest are you investing in? The world’s harvest produces little; the food is available but does not satisfy. The profit made on your harvest, is it used to make your worldly home more luxurious, more appealing to the eyes of man?

Oh, how I desire that we, you and me, would consider how things are going for us spiritually. That we would put down the things of this world and pick up the things of Christ.

Oh, how I desperately desire that our eyes, yours and mine, would be opened to see His house lying in ruins, all because we have put Him second, third, fourth, or not even at all, in order to better our worldly homes, our worldly pleasure.

 I desire that we, you and me, would see just how deep our hunger, our thirst, and our desire for warmth truly goes, but not just ours, but others who are in true need., for they are the ones who suffer from hunger, thirst, and lack of warmth. Yet we withhold from them, from Him.

Oh, that we, you and me, could see what they see.  How can we see our Father’s house lying in ruins, yet not do what is needed to re-build it. How can we move past the place of contentment, complacency, and mediocrity and plant much and harvest much.

Consider what you plant, consider your profit and how you invest, consider your priorities, consider His house.

Consider Him first!

“This is what the LORD Almighty says: Consider how things are going for you! Now go up into the hills, bring down timber, and rebuild my house. Then I will take pleasure in it and be honored, says the LORD. You hoped for rich harvests, but they were poor. And when you brought your harvest home, I blew it away. Why? Because my house lies in ruins, says the LORD Almighty, while you are all busy building your own fine houses.” Haggai 1:7-9

Merciful Lord I will go up into the hills, bring down timber, and rebuild your house. For then You will take pleasure in it and be honored.  Jesus help me plant a great harvest for You. Help me focus on Your house. Amen

Special Guest with an amazing testimony-Alisha Fussel

I am honored to have a sweet friend of mine, Alisha Fussel share her testimony. Her story and faithfulness offers so much hope. I know you will be as blessed as we have by her passion to help women. I hope you will check out her website following her testimony.

Thank you Alisha for sharing God's love and mercy with us. Most of all thank you for listening to His call to step out and help women in need. 

My family knows the consequences of sexual sin. At a very young age, I found myself unexpectedly pregnant. The emotions one feels in this situation are hard to explain. I felt scared, overwhelmed, depressed, sad, angry, judged, filthy, and oddly enough, happy. This may not make sense at all to someone who has not been there. There was a precious life that God created, and that did bring some joy in the midst of all the emotions involved. Many people were encouraging me to have an abortion. (Including some in the church) I praise God for His unconditional love. It is His love that drew my heart back to Him. He loved me even when I felt so unlovable. I chose life! I now have a beautiful 9 year old son, who God created with purpose. I cling to Romans 8:28. I can make HUGE messes of things, but God is so good!! He takes these messes, and still brings good out of them. I love God, and want nothing more than for Him to flow through me to help others.

Three years after my son was born, I received a phone call from a woman I did not know explaining to me that she had a five year old son who was my husbands. Before my husband and I were together, and before we whole heartily began to serve the Lord, this woman had a child and did not call to inform my husband. This situation has not been a walk in the park, but again, I cling to Romans 8:28. Thank God she did call us and now we can be a part of his life. She also shared with me how she was in the abortion clinic about to have the procedure.  She walked out at the last minute.  I look at my step-son and my son and truly am amazed. I am overwhelmed by God’s grace and mercy in my life.

That was just a brief history so you might understand my heart and passion. With the help of an amazing team that God put together, East Texas Pregnancy Help Center has been formed in Jasper, Texas. My heart is to help those who find themselves in the same situation that I was once in. God has opened my eyes to see that many have it much worse. They do not have any support from family or friends. They need support, love, encouragement, and most of all, God. We have only been open for a little over a month, and already we have seen the abortion minded woman chose life! We have seen salvations! We have seen people with no hope at all leave the center beaming with hope! I could go on and on, but the main thing is that God is at work!

If you let him...he will

"The thief's purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give life in all its fullness." John 10:10


He will steal our joy, our hope, our peace, our confidence, our assurance, even our trust...

He will kill us with lies, self-doubt and manipulation, by leading us to believe we don't need Jesus or by twisting the Word of God.

He will destroy our marriage, our family, our friendships, our country, even our cities.

All if we let him.

Jesus, the very opposite of the thief, offers us joy, hope, peace, confidence, tons of re-assurance, and gives us the promise of eternal life.

He does not kill us but saves us-through His death on the cross.

He does not destroy but restores our marriages, our families, our friendships, our country, even our cities.

He gives life in all its fullness!


Jesus thank You for giving me life and the fullness that comes with it. Thank You for wanting, giving, and desiring the best for me and of me. Amen

How to live in this evil world

"And we are instructed to turn from godless living and sinful pleasures. We should live in this evil world with self-control, right conduct, and devotion to God, while we look forward to that wonderful event when the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, will be revealed." Titus 2:12


Are you wondering how to live in this evil world? Jesus says with self-control, right conduct, and devotion to God.


And there is only one way to live in this evil world with self-control, right conduct, and devotion to God. With Jesus in our hearts and the Holy Spirit at work within us.

If you notice the more YOU try to do it yourself, the more you fail. That is what makes the Counselor within us so precious, so valuable, and so important. We must simply step aside and allow Him to work.

Jesus forgive me for my lack of self-control, right conduct and devotion to You. Put me aside so the Holy Spirit can complete these within me. Amen

Facing their Giants

"But forget all that-it is nothing compared to what I am going to do. For I am about to do a brand-new thing. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it? I will make a pathway through the wilderness for my people to come home." Isaiah 43:18-19

It is a soundless night of sleep for most...for others it is the stirring and racing of their minds. For some boys and girls within this county of Jasper for which we live, it is another night they are praying for warmth, protection, silence, peace, rest, and hope...

Hope, that the darkness surrounding them will soon disappear by the morning Light.  For then, they can hurry to school for food, for warmth, for protection, for consistency.

Hope that the day might last longer than the day before.

Hope that someone, anyone will come to their aid and wrap their arms around them, encourage them, teach them, yet see the need that lies so deep within them.

Hope for some of these boys and girls comes through a profession of sports, which He, the Creator of, called my husband to be apart of-hope.

What he does every day is offers the Light, who is hope, to boys and girls who are searching, longing, desiring and crying out for.

 It might not be through his words, but through his consistency, his love, his passion, his commitment that he shows them hope, and offers them protection, rest, peace, silence and comfort.

He teaches them what it means to believe, to love, to be united, to work hard, to endure, to fight, and to allow the Light to shine within them. He teaches them that ALL things are possible with the Lord.

This man, this coach, this mentor, this leader-my husband sees the need that lies deep within these precious, yet fragile boys and girls, and he sets out to offer His hope.

Tonight some of these boys will fight their giants, would you pray with me that they would win. Not for the mere fact of winning, but because maybe through this victory, they will see His victory!


Jesus show us how, how to offer Your hope, Your love, Your promise to the boys and girls living a life of hopelessness  fear, brokenness, and death. Show us how to offer the hope of You that leads to life. Would they see their giants be defeated through Your victory. Oh, I ask Jesus in Your name, Amen.

The curiousness to know

"And you must love the LORD your God with all your hear, all your soul, and all your strength. And you must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands I am giving you today. Repeat them again and again to your children. Talk about them when you are at home and when you are away on a journey, when you are lying down and when you are getting up again." Deuteronomy 6:6-7

Their backs flat to the bed and eyes looking to the sky. He's in the middle with one on each side. His hands grip the Word as he holds it up high. Reading aloud their ears are open and their eyes are wide. I sit in the other room with my eyes closed and listen to the sounds that stir in my heart.

My eyes fill with tears as I listen to him, explain to them, who He is. I can hear the curiousness that pours from their souls. As they ask things such as this.

"Was there people in hell before Jesus was here?"

"Will Jesus die for the people in hell so they can get out?"

I open my eyes to let the tears fall and listen for the answer that will fall. Fall deep into their wondering and longing hearts.

He, the one surrounded by the smaller two simply replies, "He was here before the fall. He died for all, but not all listened to the call. They didn't choose Jesus."

"Why daddy, did Jesus not live in their hearts?"

The lump grows bigger and the tears fall quicker. If only they knew, the ones who fell into the pit of hell that it was real. Would they then have chosen?

I close my eyes and bow my head as I listen to him, the one surrounded by his smaller two, lift his voice to the One that surrounded's the three.

I open my eyes so the tears can fall and praise the One who paid for us all.

Jesus thank You for the sweet sound of the bigger him ministering to the little them. May their hearts grow full of You, Your Word, and Your love from now until then. Amen

Today's duty

"Here is my final conclusion: Fear God and obey his commands, for this is the duty of every person." Ecclesiastes 12:13

There are two very important tasks to do today. Fear God and obey His commands. They must take precedence over anything else. So if you are one who makes a to-do list, make sure Jesus is at the top, in the middle and at the bottom.

Jesus before we move on to anything else may we stop what we are doing and be with You first. Help us as we go through out our day to be wise in our decisions. Amen

It's your choice

"So God let them go ahead and do whatever shameful things their hearts desired." Romans 1:24

Today God has given you the freedom to choose. What will you choose today?

Will you choose kindness or ugliness?

Will you choose joy or unhappiness?

Will you choose love or hate?

Will you choose to encourage or tear down?

Will you choose to serve or demand to be served?

Will you choose to witness or stay silent?

Will you choose to spend time with Jesus or put Him off?

Will you choose to believe in Jesus or stay lost?

Will you choose life or death, heaven or hell?

Will you choose to shine brightly for Him or cover your light?

Will you choose to obey or disobey?

Will you choose flesh or the Spirit?

Will you choose self or selflessness?

What choices will you make today? Remember every choice has a ripple effect-either good or bad!

Jesus help us to be mindful of every decision we make today. May the things we choose be the very things You would choose. May they also be choices that bring You glory and honor. Amen

It's Time for Practice

"Keep putting into practice all you learned from me and heard from me and saw me doing, and the God of peace will be with you." Philippians 4:9



Over the last three months my husband, his staff, and athletes have spent everyday working together to become the best they can be, through practice, hard work and discipline.

Though this new year has posed some challenges for our team, they, by the end of district, proved that all of their practice, obedience, and discipline payed off. Thus becoming District Champs.

What was the key? Practice (Everyday)

The athletes put into practice all they had been learning each week, new plays, better stances, where their eyes should be, etc. They also put into practice all they had heard the coaches telling them to do and not to do. They also put into practice all they had seen on film whether on themselves or on the opposing team.

Come game time all their practice would be put to the test. It would be displayed on the field for all to see.

As Christians we are to do the same thing. We are to put into practice all of God's Word. Paul points out three things for us to practice.

1. Practice what we learn.

2. Practice what we hear.

3. Practice what we have seen from God's Word.

We can read God's Word, hear God's Word, even see God's Word being lived out, BUT if we don't put any of it into practice we will not be very successful come witness time. Nor will we reflect Jesus.

So what are some ways you have been putting God's Word into practice?

Jesus help us to spend each day first with You in Your Word, and second putting into practice all You have taught us. So when others observe our lives they will see Your peace within us. Amen

Who do you say He is?

"Then he asked them, Who do you say I am?" Matthew 16:15


Have you ever been asked who Jesus is? How did you respond?

When Jesus asked Simon Peter that question, Simon Peter responded, "You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God." Matthew 16:16


Would that be your answer today? Is that who Jesus is to you?

Father God thank You for revealing Your Son to me. May I be asked this question from others so that I can share with them who You are. Amen

Quick question

Do you remember the day You met and fell in love with Jesus? Do you still feel that way about Him today? Has your relationship with Him grown?

Are you more in love with Him today than you were then?

Jesus I can honestly say I love You more today then I did back then. Thank You for the most amazing loving relationship I could have ever asked for. You my sweet love take my breath away. Thank You for this awesome giddy feeling I get inside everytime we are together. Jesus You never get old. Amen

Believe in His ability

"And all that's required is that you really do believe and do not doubt in your heart." Mark 11:23

Have some things come up in your life that have caused you to doubt the Lord?

Maybe it's the loss of a loved one, a life threatening illness, a broken marriage, a broken relationship, or the overwhelming addiction that controls you.

Whatever it is take heart brethren. The Lord is ABLE to do more than you could ever dare to ask or hope for.

He was able to part the red sea, He brought the dead to life, healed the lame, gave sight to the blind, opened the ears of the deaf, fed five thousand, brought hope to the hopeless, AND..

He, through His death, burial and resurrection overcame death and sin, thus making way for us to walk through any trial, any illness, anything with confidence in His power and love.

Don't doubt His ability, BELIEVE in His ability.

Jesus help us overcome any doubt we might have and replace it with the confidence and promise of Your Word and ability. Amen

Ready or Not

“And they will see the Son of Man arrive on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And he will send forth his angles with the sound of a mighty trumpet blast, and they will gather together his chosen ones from the farthest ends of the earth and heaven.” Matthew 24:30-31

Each day I wake with anticipation and wonder, could it be Lord, could it be the day? Jesus I look forward to this day more than any other day. And though I wake with wonder I know there is work to be done. For the day that is coming is like no other. It will start out as an ordinary day but in the blink of an eye, like a thief in the night every knee will bow, every tongue will confess, every eye will see and every ear will hear. And there in that moment every soul will be still and the Lord will appear!

Number 1 on our list of things to crave-The Lord’s return

Can’t you just visualize it, yes I know that the actual moment is more than our minds can comprehend, but the vision that fills my mind as John, Paul, and Matthew describe it, is amazing.

This time He will enter just as the King of Kings should enter. Heaven will open and the trumpets will sound. There riding on the clouds will be the Son of Man clothed in white shinning with a brilliance of light. The blind will see and the deaf will hear, the cripple will walk and finally all will see the light.

As I look up at the sky and visualize how this moment will be I can hear the trumpets sound and I can see a vast host of angels leading the way. Then, there, riding down on the clouds I can see the Son of Man full of power and glory. At the first glimpse of His beauty and appearance I fall to my knees and cry Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty! And in an instant the dead will rise and those of us who remain who have called on Him by name, will be caught up in the clouds where we will remain with Him forever.

And just as John describes “I heard a loud shout from the throne, saying, “Look, the home of God is now among his people! He will live with them, and they will be his people. God himself will be with them. He will remove all of their sorrows, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. For the old world and its evils are gone forever.” Revelation 21:3-4

Don’t you long for that day, that day when the Lord will appear? The day when everything else will melt away and we are sitting at the foot of Jesus. The day when those nailed scarred hands reach out and grab our hands pulling us in as He embraces us and says, “Welcome home my child, welcome home my good and faithful servant. Today you will be with me forever.” Oh, Jesus hasten the day when we can come home, home to the place where Your glory dwells forever and ever. Where our bodies are made new and where all things are made clear.

Are you ready? Are you ready to meet your Savior face to face? I am and though I long for the day I know that while I am here I must help strengthen the weak, seek the lost, and spread the news about my Wonderful, Gracious God, who is full of abiding love.

Prayer: Jesus we wait in great expectation of the day You will come and gather all of Your children and take us home to be with You in glory. Hasten the day Lord Jesus, hasten the day. Amen

How much do you crave Him?

“And this is what God has testified: he has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. So whoever has God’s Son has life; whoever does not have his Son does not have life.” 1 John 5:11-12

He is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and end; He is the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.  He is our Shepherd and Savior!  He is the one who is, who always was, and who is still to come, He is the Almighty One who will stand forever! (Revelation 1:8)

He is the one and only living God! He is the Father to the fatherless; He is the doctor who brings healing and medicine to the sick. He is the source of food to all who are hungry. He is the one who loves the unlovable and forgives the sinful man. He is the protector to all who seek protection and He restores all whose hearts are broken. He is the light in the darkness and the hope to the hopeless.

Number 2 on our list of things to crave-Jesus

How in the world could we not crave Jesus? How is it that we have lost or not even found an intense hunger for the very One who came to this earth just to save us from the pit of Hell? We desire to be loved, Jesus is love! We want compassion-He is compassion. We want joy-He gives it to us as a free gift.  You want mercy and grace-Jesus!

How is it that we can crave worldly pleasure that ends in nothing, but we refuse or fail to crave the One who ends in everything, the one who came and died for us? The one who was beat, spit on, mocked, and then nailed to a cross and hung up to die for you and me.

Jesus is more than just a character in a story; He is the only way to Heaven, He is the only way to receive forgiveness, He is the only one we can depend on, He is where love and absolute satisfaction is found.

Do you really think that craving happiness in a mere human will last forever? Do you really think craving tons of money will satisfy you? Do you really think the world has more to offer than Jesus?

My brother and sisters when you crave Jesus you crave a forever future in Heaven full of love! Jesus gives each of us the choice to crave and do with our lives what we want. And when we choose ourselves over Him we are choosing death, hurt, anger, defeat, and unhappiness. And though you might not see it now eventually you will!

No we are not guaranteed smooth sailing when we choose to crave Jesus, but we are guaranteed His promises, His mercy, His protection and His presence and most of all we are guaranteed a life with Him that will never end.

Prayer: Jesus there are no words to even begin to describe how much I crave You. Jesus forgive me if I ever crave anything but You. In Jesus name Amen.

You are not alone!

“ Didn't we tie up three men and throw them into the furnace? ‘Yes, they said, ‘we did indeed, Your Majesty.’ Look, ‘Nebuchadnezzar shouted. “I see four men, unbound, walking around in the fire.” Daniel 3:24-25

They refused to bow down and worship King Nebuchadnezzar and his gods. It angered him so much he had them brought in and threatened to be thrown into the blazing furnace if they did not bow down and worship his gods. But still they refused! Nebuchadnezzar became so furious with Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego that he commanded the furnace to be heated seven times hotter than usual and had seven of his strongest men bind them up and throw them into the furnace.

Number 3 on our list of things to crave-His presence

For Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego there was no question of who they loved and served. And because of their faith in the Lord His presence surrounded them.  Not just in their time of need but at all times.

God’s presence is the same for us today, Psalm 139:7 says “I can never escape from your spirit! I can never get away from your presence!” Do you know how wonderful that is? No matter where we are, what we have done, what we do, or who we are, we can never escape the presence of God.

For some that can be great and for others it can be bad. When you think you are alone-you are not the Lord is there. When you do things you think no one knows-you don’t, because the Lord is right there. He is the parent that never leaves our side. He sees all, knows all, and hears all! His amazing presence-we can never escape it!!!  Oh, how do you not find so much joy in that!

It is a gift, an unbelievable gift of love and one day we will be in Heaven where we can see and really feel His presence. Hasten the day Lord Jesus!!

Knowing that His presence is always there should bring us peace, security, and joy.  When is the last time you stopped and enjoyed being in the presence of the Lord? It is an honor that we are unworthy of!

Jesus today I want to just come and sit in Your presence. Just to know that You are right next to me is a blessing beyond what I could ever express in words. Jesus I cannot wait for the day when I will truly get to sit in Your presence, right there at Your feet, gazing up at Your beauty. Feeling the warmth of Your skin next to mine. Jesus no matter what the world throws at me I know that I will stand strong because You are right next to me. Lord thank You that as I close my eyes in prayer I can sense Your presence in this room today. It is as though You are looking at me face to face!  As I read Your word I can feel and hear You teaching me. Jesus I never want these moments to end, thank You that I can take You everywhere I go. Thank You that You go! Jesus may I come closer to You, may I be so close to You Lord that I can feel Your breath as You breathe and smell the sweetness of Your scent. Lord Jesus would You reveal Your presence to those who are lost, hurting, and lonely. Lord Jesus I pray that Your presence is so known in the lives of Your people that they will be in awe and just be still. In Jesus Name, Amen

If it is not His book, it’s not the right book!

“Your word is a lamp for my feet and a light for my path.”Psalm 119:105

It is complete, fulfilled, and true. It is full of promises, life, hope, healing, love, comfort, peace, and tells us our future. It is God-breathed!

Number 4 on our list of things to crave-His Word

It is our manual to everything life throws at us. It is where we can find adventure, love, security, excitement, and hope. It is the book that leads to life. It gives us our boundaries; it teaches us, it shows us how to love and be loved.

It is full of living power! “…It is sharper than the sharpest knife, cutting deep into our innermost thoughts and desires. It exposes us for what we really are.” Hebrews 4:12

When we crave the Word of God, we crave to be changed, shaped, and molded to Christ. When we place the Word within us, it becomes our source of light in this world of darkness. We will never grow, learn to love, learn to forgive, or learn about Jesus if we do not open His Word.

It was left here for us so we could receive salvation and walk in the ways of the Lord. It was left to instruct and show us how amazing our Savior is.

If you are searching to fill a void stop searching the world and start searching the Word! If you are walking in darkness, stumbling around stubbing your toe, grab the Word open it up and let the light in.

If you are lacking intimacy, affection, and love, open the book and read the love letters left for you. If you are sick open the Word and receive the medicine of healing. If you are hurt, angry, or bitter open the Word and let love, compassion and forgiveness consume you. If you are weak open the Word and you will find strength.

The Word of the Lord, there is nothing greater than the Word of the Lord. It is the very thing we should cling to. It should be the first thing we focus our eyes on in the morning. It should be the book we can’t wait to dive into.

My brothers and sisters please seek His Word; let it be all that you hunger for!

Prayer: Jesus there is nothing sweeter than Your Word. May we hunger and thirst for the love, adventure, healing, and hope that it has to offer. In Jesus name, Amen
