Sometimes, we keep asking God to answer our prayers, and when we don’t get what we want, we walk away from God. I pray about everything. I pray about little things and big things. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;… Continue reading I Choose God’s Plan

A Faithful Life
Yesterday I watched a funeral online, for my husband’s uncle. He died at 94 years old. As his grandchildren tearfully shared stories and moments about their grandfather, I was touched by how much they loved him. Even after he died, his life is an example on how to really live. They talked about how his… Continue reading A Faithful Life
Let God Show Me How He Sees Me
Do you ever get consumed by your life, that you feel weighed down? Sometimes I think of all the things that I need to do and should do, instead of focusing on what is really important. Sometimes I get hung up on the mistakes that I made in the past, and I don’t let myself… Continue reading Let God Show Me How He Sees Me
If God Is For Me, Who Can Be Against Me?
Sometimes Satan reminds us of our past. This morning I was thinking about people that used in be in my life. With memories, I remember how people made me feel, especially when people made me feel less than what God intended for me. God removes people from our lives for a reason. God can see… Continue reading If God Is For Me, Who Can Be Against Me?
God Is the Light in the Dark
God can change your circumstances, and when he does, he will take care of every detail. Seven years ago, my husband was unemployed. His contract ended. We tried to sell our house, but it wouldn’t sell. I started working more hours, from being a part-time employee. I had always wanted to be a stay at… Continue reading God Is the Light in the Dark
God’s Mercy Endures
Seven years ago, I was in a different place. I lived in another state. I went to church and thought that I was faithful. I had a job and worked part time. My kids were so little, 2 and 4 years old. I had no idea what was going to happen. It would make me… Continue reading God’s Mercy Endures
Hope, Comfort and Joy
We live in a world, where when we read the bible, people say we are in a cult. The most sold book in the world is the bible. I go to a church that studies the bible every week, from cover to cover. It takes years to go through the entire bible. I learn so… Continue reading Hope, Comfort and Joy
Trust In God
God is all powerful and full of glory. God fills this space in our hearts and lives that nothing else can fill. When you know God, your heart is full of calmness and peace. God has carried me through tough times and happy times. When I follow God’s timing and do his will, God can… Continue reading Trust In God
God Will Equip Us To Do His Good Works
Do you truly believe that God’s goodness is better than anything else? I do, yet I still sin. Why would I miss out on some of God’s blessings and go against God? All humans sin. Understanding our own ‘why’ is complicated. If we repent, God will forgive us. I have to keep reminding myself that… Continue reading God Will Equip Us To Do His Good Works
Return to God With All of Your Heart
In the Old Testament, Josiah restores true worship. When we stray away from God, and feel compelled to return to God, we do so with gusto. Once you live in the presence of God as a believer, you never want to live your life without Jesus. You feel safe and protected, even in storms, because… Continue reading Return to God With All of Your Heart
