Is there peace on Earth? It’s not a trick question. With everything we see every day in the news, we are not seeing much peace on Earth. But despite that, how many of you know that God has still made a way for us to walk in peace? The peace that we experience on the [...]

The Path is BRIGHT!
Been thinking about this post for weeks now...not able to completely articulate what's stirring in my heart yet. For me, 2020 was a year filled with much pain, confusion, loss, heartache, anxiety, uncertainty, and revelation. And yet, I have felt the love of the Father like never before. His path is not always the easy [...]
Christmas Miracles!
I believe in CHRISTmas miracles! I believe in EVERYDAY miracles, too! If we acknowledge CHRIST everyday and seek to find it, we can see the very power of God at work in our lives. Miracles are not always supernatural. They are every little thing we have been blessed with, every new day we are alive [...]
Seek First to Understand
I truly love this quote. This is simply a practical application of the Biblical concept of 'preferring one another'. If we strive for this mindset in our approach to every relationship, it can be a win-win where neither person feels the need to act offensive or defensive. We can trust that the other person is [...]
Don’t Be Ashamed to Celebrate Your Spouse!
Women’s lives are so complex and their responsibilities vast. Some are wives, some are sisters, some are caregivers, some are moms, some stay at home to care for their families, some work at home while simultaneously caring for their children, some work outside the home and must balance caring for their children during the early [...]

One Bit of Unbelief Against the Word of God is Poison
"Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you will abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." Romans 15:13 I'd like to quote Smith Wigglesworth, who was a man of great faith and prayer when talking about hope in believing God's Word. "God [...]
Going to the Other Side
I absolutely love the Amplified translation of Hebrews 13:5b,6 "for He [God] Himself has said, I will not in any way fail you nor give you up nor leave you without support. [I will] not, [I will] not, [I will] not in any degree leave you helpless nor forsake nor let [you] down (relax My [...]
Undistracted
The enemy seems so slick but in all honesty, he really only has two modes of operation; deception and distractions, and being deceived can be the biggest distraction of all. I've heard it said that not every thought that is in your mind originated with your mind. Our thoughts are shaped by our surroundings and [...]
We DO Faith, BY Faith!
Wherever I let my mind go is what possesses me. My feelings will line up in that direction and then words and eventually, actions will follow feelings. It is the same in the positive or negative direction. It begins with a thought but will eventually be followed by feelings. Sometimes it seems like feelings came [...]
