Resilient

One day last week I listened to this podcast while choosing to go for a run after work on a Monday, Made For This with Jennie Allen. And these were the verses she referenced: Therefore, with minds that are alert and fully sober, set your hope on the grace brought to you when Jesus ChristContinue reading “Resilient”

Have Faith

Matthew 9….have faith. Have faith in God. Have faith that He still heals today. Have faith that He is in control. I listned the other moring to a devotional on Matthew 9:18-38 and it was all about not only having faith and trusting God, but walking that out in our actions and words. Pray. LiveContinue reading “Have Faith”

What am I seeking?

This past month I have been searching for new ways to be connected to God. More ways to step back from society, to walk away from the flesh and walk more obediently with God. In doing so, I have been listening to more podcasts, reading more books, and seeking out God more. Seeking His presenceContinue reading “What am I seeking?”

Rise Up

If you are anything like me, you see in your daily life how desperately this world needs love and peace. You see people suffering in your daily life; you see the darkness and you can feel the heaviness. And if you are like me, you are looking for a way to bring light into theContinue reading “Rise Up”

Joy.

I recently ended with the fruit of the spirit, today is about joy. Joy. I have long believed that there is an instrumental difference between joy and happiness. People talk about the “pursuit of happiness” and having a happy life. And there is nothing wrong with that, in fact there is a LOT of goodContinue reading “Joy.”

Humble Yourselves

It’s been a few weeks since I have had the energy to put together a post. I have learned that writing a blog is something that takes time and purpose. I want my words to mean something. I journal almost every day and there are many days where I think, “Maybe I should write thisContinue reading “Humble Yourselves”

God’s Workmanship

Last week, I wrote a few quick notes in my journal. I was running late for work, something that is engrained in my DNA I think. Of course, I had all of these thoughts and feelings running through me, but did not have time to write them all down. Quickly, I wrote down a fewContinue reading “God’s Workmanship”

Embrace the in between

Celebrate the already, put your faith in the not yet, and embrace the in between. I absolutely LOVE what God has for us in the in between. I have been so caught up lately in what this world is going through and in my own self-focused life that I forgot for a moment about thisContinue reading “Embrace the in between”

Trust in the Lord

I don’t have fear in me right now, I am not worried. But, I am also not naive. I see the darkness that is covering our world. My heart is breaking for the people in Afghanistan, in Haiti, in our own backyards. I am questioning why the media finds it more important to cover theContinue reading “Trust in the Lord”

How do you keep smiling?

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Philippians 4:13 I love this bible verse and if you have been in the church or a follower of Christ for any period of time, I am sure you have heard it. It has to be one of the most notable verses, besides John 3:16.Continue reading “How do you keep smiling?”
