When things get tough, how do you handle yourself? Do you fight to control the situation? Or, are you like me? I just want to curl up with a blanket and sleep. That is how I felt this morning. Two months ago, my mom was diagnosed with Stage 4, Glioblastoma. She had surgery to remove… Continue reading Love Is the Bond of Perfection

My name is Karen Jean. I started this blog in 2018, after I fully accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. As I learned how amazing life is with the Lord in control, I could not wait to share the good news of Jesus Christ in this blog. As you read through it, I hope you see my biblical understanding continue to grow and develop.

Stand Perfect and Complete In All the Will of God
Each morning, my kids read a devotional book. This morning, we were running late, so I read it. I also started saying a prayer with my kids, after reading it. Lately, I have been praying that we have hearts and minds like Jesus Christ. For “who has known the mind of the Lord that he… Continue reading Stand Perfect and Complete In All the Will of God
God Triumphs Over Everything
Have you seen the video with the lady saying that we should eat children to save the planet? It sounds insane! It sounds horrific. It sounds unbelievable. It is a hoax and not true. The scary part is that it has happened in history. It is a horrible part of history, that I don't like… Continue reading God Triumphs Over Everything
Peace Through The Storm
Today is an exciting day. I have a job interview for a part-time job. I have been praying for a job where I could work a few hours a week and still be home for my children and visit my mom. My mom has a brain tumor, or stage 4 Glioblastoma cancer. She is in… Continue reading Peace Through The Storm
Honor the Lord By Doing Your Best
I find myself saying, "Do the best that you can", to my children lately. I have been saying a bunch of these phrases... You are only cheating yourself, when you don't work hard. Check your work three times. Do your best, and if you can do better, do it. Instead of doing the least amount,… Continue reading Honor the Lord By Doing Your Best
Sing With Grace In Your Heart
I went to the women's bible study this morning. It starts out with singing. We have two amazing ladies who sing and play instruments. I love the singing. The Holy Spirit fills me up and energizes me. This morning we read the book of Colossians. This is part of the series of epistles that Paul wrote… Continue reading Sing With Grace In Your Heart
God’s Wisdom Reigns
I used to be one of those people that planned out everything. It gave me a sense of order and reassurance. I would spend time thinking of possible scenarios or outcomes and how I would handle each outcome. Over the past two years, I have been getting closer to God. I have realized that I… Continue reading God’s Wisdom Reigns
God Knows Our Hearts
Sometimes, I just want God to fix the things that I think are broken in my life. I am not looking at it the right way. I need to surrender to the Lord and praise everything that he does in my life, even if its not what I thought I wanted. The Lord can answer… Continue reading God Knows Our Hearts
Look For Praiseworthy Moments
The book of Philippians is full of wonderful advice on how to behave as a Christian. I really love to read all of Paul's books in the bible. Each one is eye opening for me. We read the passage, "Mediate on These Things", last week at the women's bible study. Instead, of 'brethren', we said… Continue reading Look For Praiseworthy Moments
Only Let Your Conduct Be Worthy Of The Gospel Of Christ
Sometimes, people are not always nice. It makes me feel sad, frustrated and even angry at times. Paul tells us some hard truths about how we should behave. I want to pass over them, but I really need to hear them. Once we believe in Jesus, we can no longer walk as other unbelievers walk.… Continue reading Only Let Your Conduct Be Worthy Of The Gospel Of Christ
