Patti Burris Ministries

Welcome!

I’m glad you could stop by! Take your time and enjoy your visit. I started this blog in January of 2013, as a way of encouraging others in their daily walk with God. Whether you are a new christian or have been following Jesus for years, I am here to encourage you as you deepen your relationship with Christ. Many of the topics that I post are on issues that I deal with myself. I am not perfect, but I believe that God gave me a message to give to others who struggle in their walk with God. God gave me a voice to encourage and empower others who may be ready to give up. NEVER GIVE UP! JESUS LOVES YOU!

I will tell you a little about myself. In this season of life, I am a:

WOMAN OF GOD: First and foremost, I am a daughter of the King. This relationship comes before anything else for me. In the early years as a single mom, I decided that I wanted my life to be more than chasing after relationships. I knew that my true joy comes only from God. I took solace in Isaiah 54:5

For your Maker is your husband- the Lord Almighty is his name- the Holy one of Israel is your Redeemer; he is called the God of all the earth.

I have made a commitment to live for God and God alone.

MOM: I am the blessed single mom of 5 beautiful kids. I have 3 daughters; Cherokee 26, Kiowa 25, and Cree 23. I also, have 2 sons; Talon 20 and Ty 18. They are my heart and as I see them grow and mature, it is bittersweet. I have not been a perfect mom. I have made mistakes, but I have done my best to always show them how much I love them. I couldn’t be prouder of the character they have shown in difficult circumstances.

Mom-in-law: In May of 2017, Cree married a wonderful young man named Antony (Tony). Tony is originally from Egypt and Cree has immersed herself in learning how to cook Egyptian dishes and learning about Egyptian culture. These two are a blessing and I am blessed to share life with them.

On July 21st of 2018, Cherokee married Chris and blended two families with four kids. Chris is amazing and I am blessed to have him as my son-in-law. I know that they will have many, many wonderful years together.

MILITARY-MOM: Kiowa is serving this great country in the United States Air Force.

GRANDMA: I am Nana to four adorable kiddos; Haydon is 10, Ava is 6, Keaton is 6 and Christopher is 4. They are the sunshine in my life and I absolutely adore them! There is nothing on this earth like being a grandma!

As a follower of Jesus: 

I try to encourage others to be that example of Jesus in their daily lives. I am passionate about fighting for justice for those who can’t fight for themselves. I am passionate about giving a voice to those who have no voice. I am passionate about speaking the truth of God’s Word to a society that cares more about self gratification than helping those in need. I am passionate about following Jesus.

I have a message for the church: If we really are living in the end times, then why aren’t we doing more to live as God wants us to live? Why aren’t we tearing down those denominational lines that divide us? Why aren’t we showing compassion to those who are hurting? Why aren’t we sharing our blessings with those in need? Why aren’t we loving others to Jesus? Why aren’t we sharing the best thing in our lives with others?

It is all about JESUS and that is what you will find here.
