Back in February, Arlin Yrastorza shared her God-story with us, but we were unable to publish it on the blog at that time. You may remember her poem, Kaleidoscope, which we did publish that week. Here is the story that accompanied that poem. In Laura Story’s popular song, “Blessings,” she asks a series of questions …
God Is Our Hope
Laurie McPerrin, leader of our MUMs ministry, shared her God-story with us a couple of weeks ago. Her story is an encouragement to anyone going through a life-changing crisis. Show me your ways, LORD, teach me your paths. Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope …
God’s Love is Personal
We continue our series of God-stories this week with this offering from one of our Titus teachers, Sara Eyster: We have thrilled to the stories of our sisters here this year haven’t we? What a variety of testimonies. Mine is not very exciting or dramatic but just as desperate a rescue. There are those in every …
Escaping the Pit
Our God-story this week comes from Renee Cook one of our newer members of Titus Women: I grew up in a Christian home. And not merely a “Christian" home, but one with parents who loved God and did everything they could to teach us about Jesus. It's all I've ever known. I went to AWANA, …
From Frustration to Freedom
This week, we were blessed to hear this God-story from Doreen Poehling: Growing up, I was told about Jesus every Sunday. I heard over and over that Jesus died for me. I even professed my belief in Him every week in a creed. I loved saying that I believed in God. I went through all …

Kaleidoscope
Arlin shared this poem during opening time this week. Enjoy these words of restored hope with us: Kaleidoscope by Arlin Yrastorza This kaleidoscope I hold in hand seems simple in itself, a child's toy I once enjoyed retired on the shelf. What is it now that beckons me to turn it to the sky; internal shards …
When Jealousy is Good
This week Claudine Lehman shared with us her "god-story" of her Jealous Valentine. “Jesus Lover of my soul – let me hide myself in Thee.” I've always loved those words from that familiar hymn. Jesus is my precious Valentine. Jesus. The one who created me, and then gave himself for me that I might be His …
God’s Abiding Love
June Griffin told us about her true Valentine this week when she shared her story of God's abiding love. It did not surprise me that Valentine's Day was the day assigned to me for giving my testimony, for God's abiding love has always been the characteristic of God that is my Rock. Many times I …
God Is Faithful
We continued our series of "God-stories" this week with this contribution from Kathy Anderson where she shared her experience of God's great faithfulness. My late mother-in-law loved the color blue. As a result, my father-in-law would be sure to plant as many blue flowers as possible in their backyard garden. Growing up in south Texas, …
