Hi there! My name is Kathleen Laurence. I’m a wife to Mark of 28 years and mother to five children. Life is fun.
I love to encounter the Lord through prayer, worship and the Word.
Since we were created to walk in close, daily fellowship with the Holy Spirit and move in his power to see God’s kingdom come and his will be done on earth as it is in heaven, I’d love to encourage you along your way.
I’m excited to share stories with you as we journey alongside our Savior Jesus Christ together. And if you don’t know him yet, that’s okay. Use this as a place to discover him.
“Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place.” (2 Corinthians 2:14 NKJV)
MY PRAYER FOR YOU
“For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom his whole family on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.“
Ephesians 3:14-19 (NIV 1984)
WORD FOR 2026 – SIMPLIFY
Simplify. It’s my word for 2026. We were challenged during a recent retreat to ask the Lord for a word for 2026. As soon as I had typed in our text thread, “I’m praying for my word for 2026!” it was as if it fell from the sky. I heard in my spirit the Lord…

That is the question. To the ones in limbo… The clock is ticking. It’s almost that day. November 5th will come and go but the results of it will not. If you’ve been avoiding the ballot box because you’re fed up with the news, the times we live in, or would just rather not get…

The Funk and Your Destiny in 2023
With the new year having begun and so many promises of God that were released for 2023, what do we do when we begin to feel like it is all impossible? What do we do when we feel the funk? What do we do when we wake up feeling depressed, hopeless, sorrowful, apathetic and wantingContinue…

JESUS IS THE ANSWER
I could pretty much end the blog post with the title and that would be enough said. Jesus IS the answer. Oftentimes, the Lord will wake me up with songs. Today he woke me up to an old song I used to sing as a child called “Jesus is the Answer (Above Him There’s NoContinue…

WHY NOT TODAY?
There is so much grace coming down from heaven that even as you breathe and read this post, the Lord is singing over you. He is sustaining your life whether you realize it or not. (see Zephaniah 3:17) Just the thought of that overwhelms me. Thank you, Jesus. I know the time draws nigh withContinue…

DANGEROUS LOVE
I am so in awe of our Lord. He’s amazingly humble and kind. And in the same breath, the MIGHTIEST Warrior of all time. A couple days ago, as I was outside painting the manger my friend’s husband made for our upcoming children’s Christmas program, I was praying outloud. As I was saying the sentence,Continue…

ISN’T HE AMAZING?
“Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can doContinue…
