Hello and welcome! My name is Maryann Lorts and I am a daughter of the One True King. I need to remind myself of this truth every day. I get out of bed and wake to a tired world and see a need to be a light. My calling may be small among many, but by God’s will, I will run the race that He has placed before me and finish well.

The only way out of this sinful world -BELIEVE- Mo

The only way out of this sinful world
-BELIEVE-
Most people don't want to work their thoughts into believing what the Lord says is real or change their standards to those of God. They may ride the line but think righteous living or sanctification is just too hard of an effort. Their sin is much easier. We must pray for those who are lost and those who are waning. The Lord's time is drawing near, and we must be standing in His light.

The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him.
Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God.
John 1:9‭-‬13 NIV

What is stopping us from planting seeds in the sea

What is stopping us from planting seeds in the season of harvesting? Planting seeds of hope, building the kingdom, and stepping up in faith should be something that should be done in all seasons.

No season changes so much that we can’t strive for revival.

Our life actions should glorify the Lord, not mock

Our life actions should glorify the Lord, not mock Him by His own words- trying to say that your light allows you to live a sinful life because your own religious liberty allows your light to burn for free thinking and feelings. No! Our lights illuminate a path to true freedom in the Lord...that leads to Heaven... Righteousness gained at new birth and sanctification on the way to glory... This is not lighting a way to liberty of sinful freedom just because you believe in Jesus...you must live out true faith and not drag others down in lies.

“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven..."
Matthew 5:14‭-‬16 NIV

People are drowning in their nonsense and science.

People are drowning in their nonsense and science. It's not that they forget who the author of life is- they just don't care or they don't believe. They live in fear or in ease of sin or some political disillusionment. We are called to be -DIFFERENT- Many Christians are sleeping on the fence and dragging along through the grey area of modern faith thinking. Time to wake up! Live such a good life and act like we're called to the light that people want what we have. Live in the light!

But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy. Dear friends, I urge you, as foreigners and exiles, to abstain from sinful desires, which wage war against your soul. Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day he visits us.
1 Peter 2:9‭-‬12 NIV
