When I look in the mirror, I see a reflection of a flawed person. I don't think that I can always see what God sees in me. I see all the things that I want to change. In the bible, God uses the imperfect people, so his glory can shine through. A king is not… Continue reading The Side of Victory

The Ultimate Betrayal of Jesus
This morning I opened up the bible to the gospel of Luke. As Christians, we are in the season of Lent, preparing our hearts and minds for Easter. Jesus was crucified on the cross, died and was buried, three days later, he rose from the dead and ascended into heaven. Jesus was crucified, because one… Continue reading The Ultimate Betrayal of Jesus
Revere God’s Name
The first commandment in the bible is "You shall have no other Gods before me." God created this whole amazing universe, and he doesn't want us to worship false gods. There is only one God. Everything in this universe is by his design, including every person. When we cherish and respect God's name, the sun… Continue reading Revere God’s Name
The Weak Call On God’s Strength
The official first day of Spring is in one week. I love Spring. I love the flowers blooming and leaves growing on the trees. The one thing that I always forget comes with Spring, seasonal allergies. I have been knocked out the past few days. I think I had a cold and forgot to take… Continue reading The Weak Call On God’s Strength
God Will Be Our Shield
Lets face it, we all mistakes. Nobody is perfect. Its what you do with your mistake that matters. Do you push the blame on others? Do you deny that you made a mistake? Do you ignore your mistake? Or, do you own up to your mistakes. Do you ask God for forgiveness and try not… Continue reading God Will Be Our Shield
The Ten Commandments
Lent started on Wednesday, so it seems like good time to review the Ten Commandments. I wrote numbers next to the commandments in the verses below. The Ten Commandments written on the tablets by God were condensed. I wanted to see all the information, so I searched for the verses in Deuteronomy. The Ten Commandments… Continue reading The Ten Commandments
Boast About Your Faith In God
Lately, I have mulling over the concept of pride and faithfulness. Pride can manifest itself in so many different ways. Pride can make you think you are great and mighty, and then be deflated in a flash. Pride is like a balloon, one little comment can be like a needle popping the balloon into tiny… Continue reading Boast About Your Faith In God
Ask God To Show You The Way
Have you ever had a difficult time in your life? I have had several difficult times. When you are deep in the struggle, that is when you are willing to do anything to get out of where you are. You try and try on your own to find a way out. You are desperate to… Continue reading Ask God To Show You The Way
One Moment at a Time
I love my kids. I prayed to have each of them. I left my career 4 years ago to become a stay-at-home mom for my kids. I felt like they needed me here. We moved to a new state, and my son was about to start kindergarten, which was half-day at the time. My daughter… Continue reading One Moment at a Time
God Prepares Us For What We Don’t Know
This morning, I was a spiritual mess. My kids woke me up at 4:15 am (I know the early risers don't feel bad for me), and I didn't really sleep until the alarm went off at 6:15 am. I felt like Satan was shooting darts at me, because doubts, fears, reminders from past failures were… Continue reading God Prepares Us For What We Don’t Know
