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 [...]
Don’t Join the Team
Have you ever thought that when we are tempted to speak about others in a negative way we are not only stepping out of love but we are siding with the enemy? The enemy will ALWAYS whisper things to you about others because the Bible says he is the accuser of the brethren and usually [...]

Choosing to worship, especially in the midst of a trial, is one of the greatest acts of faith we can do. In fact, worship is one way we can release our faith. Did you know that you can have faith but not have it working for you because you have failed to release it? We [...]
True Unity Requires Diversity
"Unity is not uniformity. Most people's understanding of unity is the fight for uniformity. True unity requires diversity. Diversity is required for Biblical unity. Unity does not tolerate diversity, it celebrates it. It's what makes it so beautiful. Unity is not something we can create. Most human efforts for unity, as noble as they may [...]
Another Man’s Shoes
My heart is heavy and it made me think of this quote today. This is something Atticus tries to teach Scout at the beginning of the book. The idea of putting oneself in another man's shoes. It seems utterly impossible at times. But we still need to try. Just to stop, breathe, and consider another's [...]
God’s Will Sustains Us
Finding out God's will for your life and doing it will sustain you, just like Jesus. It's like food in your belly that satisfies like nothing else. Having an understanding of God's will for your life will keep you grounded when everything around you seems like shifting sand. Over the years there can be many [...]
Choose to Believe the Power is Working
What we can see outwardly of our situation may seem very discouraging, but the eye of faith chooses to see from God's perspective. After all, that is what faith is for, the unseen. Once we can physically see that which we have been believing for, faith is no longer necessary. No matter what it looks [...]
