What a year it has been! Retirement, relocation and starting a new ministry just to name a few of the events that took place. My year of 2024 will go down in the books as a very sad year of losses, however I have to be excited about the visions and dreams that God has given me for 2025!
My main prayer now is that God will “use me as a tool to help him build his Kingdom”! In giving me that expression, I am seeing the faithfulness of our Heavenly Father as he continues to break my heart. You see, God is breaking the curses, strongholds and biases that I had allowed the enemy to apply to my life over the past years. God is opening new doors in ministry as he softens my once hardened heart! I have issues and strife but I have a God that can use me to minister even in my weakness. As a matter of fact, I feel that he is using me through my weakness.
2024 is about to be over and I for one am glad of that. Now, as 2025 comes into reality, the excitement of New Beginnings has me posting blogs at 3:30 in the morning! I’m excited to wake up and have the opportunity to pray instead of sleep. I’m excited to have the opportunity to meet new people and pray for them “Right Now”! I am most excited to see the Kingdom of God invade this world in the most profound way I have ever seen.
Let your Kingdom come Lord!
In Jesus mighty name!
All I want for Christmas!
With the month of December starting today, I am getting into the Christmas spirit. I am wondering what gifts to get for family and friends and also being asked, “Jeff, what do you want for Christmas this year?”
2024?

With the month of December starting today, I am getting into the Christmas spirit. I am wondering what gifts to get for family and friends and also being asked, “Jeff, what do you want for Christmas this year?”
Was I really that busy?
With 2 hurricanes, damage, loss of power for a week, no gasoline and then extensive clean up for our house, neighbors and churches… I just quit blogging on the site. Bear with me as we get back to normal and I will continue to let you all know what God is doing in 1st Light Ministries!
Walking and Talking with the Lord
Every morning I walk 5 miles around 6:00 - 7:30 am. This is a little story to let you know about my walk and talk with the Lord this morning. For some reason I woke up around 2:30 this morning? I went ahead and did my Bible study which was 1 Corinthians 8, but I went ahead and read the whole book… around 4:30 I went for my 6:00 walk. As my phone was announcing that I had walked a mile, the Lord told me to pick a flower 🌸 for my sister. She is going to stay with my brother in law for a few days. He is quite ill, possibly in his final days…
A little story about 1st Light Ministries
Perhaps you're wondering how 1st Light Ministries got it's name? Well, I have an interesting story about that!
Another lesson learned.
In my life I have seen God use the most normal things to help me understand the most SUPERNATURAL things! I am a guy that wants to make things happen. This is a pro and a con in my character. If it needs to be done, I will do it and do it now. I don't like to procrastinate. As the comedian said, "get 'er Done"!

Beyond beautiful!
04 October 2024
If you have read my blog before you know that every morning I walk and talk with the Lord! He has shown me mailboxes, churches that need a volunteer to help after the hurricane and many, many people to just be nice to. This Friday morning he showed me a first light that was awesome! A blue streak right down the middle of the sky! I didn't think it had any meaning other than, “Check this one out Jeff”…. Then this happened...
A young girl who was walking on the bridge had stopped to look at it and I stopped along side her. She asked what it was that we were seeing? I said I didn't know what the blue streak was but the sky was first light. I told her about our ministry, how the darkness has to flee when the light appears and that Jesus is the light of Life. It was about a one minute conversation but she ended it by saying "if heaven looks like this, it is beyond BEAUTIFUL! I could just stand here all day and look at that sky!"
What a wonderful God we have, that he just throws in a beautiful first light morning to show me his variety and that girl was shown how beautiful God's creation is when we stop to look at it!
Use me as a tool to help you build your Kingdom Lord!
