Trauma Happens

Trauma Happens.... It can come in a variety of ways
Here in Northern California, most especially Butte Co. and surrounding areas, we started our year off under the fear and distress of a possible Dam Spillway Failure. It's easy to say there is a lot of traumatic stress happening around here, so I was thrilled to be able to learn some new tools to help myself and others around me.

In His Time...

In His time
Isaiah 40:31 “But they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.”
I love to go birding! Have you ever watched an Eagle soar? It seems to be such a graceful effortless flight as they glide higher & higher in the heavens with little or no effort...
Lay your burdens down

Lay your burdens down
So many of us carry around the burdens of our past… things we regret saying… things we wish we had done differently... pain we may have caused others, or that was inflicted upon us. We were not meant to live with the weight of these burdens on us. God did not intend for us to carry such heaviness by ourselves. It's the enemy who comes to distract and destroy...
This journey of Faith
by David and Dianna Wyles June 9th, 2016
In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your path. Proverbs 3:6
I’ve been on this incredible learning Journey…
Changing my negatives to positives, counting my burdens as blessings, seeking God’s goodness and love…
Would you like to know what I have found?
When you Ask; it is Given > When you Seek; it is Found >When you Search; it is Discovered.

I hope this note finds you in good spirits and well. I am sitting here procrastinating about my job hunt this morning as that is what I should be doing but... I'd rather send a note to you;) How are you? It seems from your writings that you have a new found sense of peace that is refreshing you somewhat:) Praise God for all he is doing in your life! I also have learned a little...
Trust and Patience
by David and Dianna Wyles April 1st, 2016
Our Beloved Pastor’s devotion entitled “Thunderstorms" inspired me to write about trust and patience. Patience is a hard one, but a lesson I'm in the middle of now, as I try to patiently wait on the Lord’s timing and open doors of opportunity.
We do not want you to become lazy, but to imitate those who through faith and patience inherit what has been promised....
How my Heart Blessings began
by David and Dianna Wyles March 28th, 2016
How did I become known as the “Queen of Hearts”? It all started through a season in my life where I was struggling to cope with all that life was throwing my way. I felt lost and broken; World/National news was tragic; I was having a hard time accepting truth about a loved one’s fatal illness; I had already lost loved ones I was still grieving for; work was stressful…...
The Best of Friends
by David and Dianna Wyles March 20th, 2016
Spring has sprung, and with it unpredictable weather. California has been blessed with much needed rain. A LOT of rain! The prayers of many were answered as this rain is bringing an end to the drought that has plagued our State for too long. As much as we need this rain… it’s seems to go on forever. Thankfully the Lord has also shown us mercy with a few days of sun to warm...

God is Real! My epiphany
By David Wyles
One morning I was lying in bed, thinking about God and groaning inside myself over the burden of sin (Romans 8:23). This had been going on for about 6 months, the moaning inside how it was unfair that we were born into sin and had no choice. The only one ever to have a choice was Eve, and it was not her fault. It was Satan’s!
Then it happened. ...
On forgiveness...
by David and Dianna Wyles March 6th, 2016
“Therefore, if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you, leave your gift there in front of the altar. First go and be reconciled to your brother; then come and offer your gift.” Matthew 5:23-24 NIV
I have a confession to make... I once didn't talk to my mom for five long years! The same Mom who hugged me when I...
Dare to Love
by David and Dianna Wyles February 25th, 2016
About your heart...
There are many Bible verses discussing the heart because God’s word is clear that the condition of your heart is critical in your walk with the Lord. [Proverbs 4:23] "Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life." [Proverbs 3:5] "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;" [Mathew 6:21] "for where your...
