Yesterday and today, I have felt exhausted. Drained. I felt like I have not had the strength to move. What is wrong with me? I have been tired. It was a busy month, and I feel tired emotionally and physically. This was a new thing. I felt like a sack of potatoes, dragging myself from… Continue reading Let Praise Renew Your Spirit

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.
About me: Most importantly, I am a child of God. I reside in Ashburn, Virginia with my husband, two children and pet dog. Thank you for reading my blog.
Fight The Forces Of Darkness With Prayer
Have you ever needed a prayer for help? I sure have. I can be having a great day. I can wake up praising and thanking God, then something happens. Someone says something that snaps my spirit. I wish that I could say that I have an almighty armor to resist being hurt by others, but… Continue reading Fight The Forces Of Darkness With Prayer
God Acts For Those Who Wait For Him
This morning I was so happy remembering family visits. It was so nice to have family that wants to spend time with you and goes out of their way to visit us. They traveled for many hours to see us. This afternoon, I was reminded of people close by that stir up descent and hostility.… Continue reading God Acts For Those Who Wait For Him
Serve God With All Your Heart, Mind, and Strength
For the past month, we have had family visiting. It was so fun. Now, I am so tired. I prayed for each visit. I prayed that God would bless our time together and give us grace. I tried to be a good hostess, and it is not hard when everyone smiles and says thank you.… Continue reading Serve God With All Your Heart, Mind, and Strength
I was complacent to the Lord, but the Lord did let me stay that way
Do you know any people that call themselves Christians and go to church occasionally on Christmas and Easter? Know any of them? I do. I was one of them. I would say that I was Christian, but I didn't read the bible or go to church very often. I grew up attending Catholic schools and… Continue reading I was complacent to the Lord, but the Lord did let me stay that way
Choose God, Not Society
We had company visiting over the weekend, and we were watching a late night talk show. I do not usually stay up late enough to watch them anymore. One of the talk show hosts made a joke that he made a decision to accept the Lord, Jesus Christ as his Savior. I cringed inside, as… Continue reading Choose God, Not Society
Praise God From Sunrise To Sunset
God is so good! God can deliver us from our greatest weakness. Everyone has weaknesses, but God can help us to be strong. We have to praise God all the time. On Sundays, when we go to church its easy. When we go to school, work and in the neighborhood, it can be harder. You… Continue reading Praise God From Sunrise To Sunset
I don’t want to be the person that says, “I will not walk in it.”
Have you ever wondered how you got to where you are right now? I am so thankful that God has answered so many of my prayers. I have a great husband and two great kids. Sometimes, I still feel anxious. Actually, I feel that way often. Am I afraid that God is going to take… Continue reading I don’t want to be the person that says, “I will not walk in it.”
The Lord God Is My Strength
I love my kids so much. I think they are amazing. There are so valuable to me. I get deeply hurt when others do things to make them feel less than what they are. I tell them they are loved. Worthy. Valuable. Worth more than anything that money can buy. Their value is infinite to… Continue reading The Lord God Is My Strength
Love Has Power
The definition of hatred is extreme dislike or disgust. The definition of love is strong affection, warm attachment and devotion. The definition of love has adjectives describing the emotion as 'strong' and 'warm'. The definition of hate is short, hard, and to the point. The bible says, "Hatred stirs up strife". So, when you hate… Continue reading Love Has Power
