Halloween is coming up in ten days. My neighbors love Halloween. They have bones and lights and graveyards in their front yards. We do have a few cute decorations up for my kids. I have to admit that Halloween is not my favorite day. It creeps me out. I don’t want to watch scary movies… Continue reading Pray Away Nightmares
Everlasting Kingdom
Some days I go through the day and feel surprised and confused at the world around me. I feel out of touch about the latest shows, trends and fads. Do you ever feel that way? I am trying to keep my eyes focused on God. I am trying to get better and improve myself. I… Continue reading Everlasting Kingdom
An Outcome Beyond Our Imagination
I don't know why I get surprised by the goodness of God. God does amazing things for us. When I let go of my worries and give them to God, amazing things happen. I worry. I get stressed out. I try and control the situation, which just gets worse. Then, finally, I truly let go… Continue reading An Outcome Beyond Our Imagination
God is Sovereign
What does the word sovereign mean? It means to have supreme power. God has supreme power over the universe. God decides. Not you. Not me. Only one person determines the outcome. God. Our God in heaven can do whatever he pleases. But our God is in heaven; He does whatever He pleases. --Psalm 115:3 (NKJV).… Continue reading God is Sovereign
Everlasting Consolation
In the Fall, I cannot help but feel a little giddy over the changing leaves, a cappuccino (sorry Pumpkin Spiced Latte fans), sweater weather and wearing boots again. It is a joy to find pleasure in the little things and celebrate the changing of the seasons. Change can be scary, and it can be beautiful.… Continue reading Everlasting Consolation

Difficult times in our lives can be, well, difficult. These are the times that I really turn toward God. I… Continue reading Live a Life Worthy of God
Faith: Doubt In Your Heart
Do you believe that whatever you ask for in prayer you will receive? I have to admit, sometimes I feel like what I am asking for is more like a dream that won't really come true...until it does. In the bible, Jesus said that if you believe, without any doubts in your heart, these things… Continue reading Faith: Doubt In Your Heart
Seasons of Life
I often hear people talking about their season of life. My season of life cuddling my babies, bottles and sleepless nights has passed. In this season of my life, my kids are not toddlers anymore, yet they are not in double digits yet. In the season of my life, I am starting to deal with… Continue reading Seasons of Life
Trusting God With the Outcome
This morning at church, the message was to trust God with the outcome. I really needed to hear this today. Two months ago, I found out that my mom has a brain tumor. She has stage 4 cancer. Her condition is declining. I have been so worried about my mom's upcoming radiation and chemo treatment,… Continue reading Trusting God With the Outcome
Walk Worthy of God
As I go through difficult times, I find that I truly need to rely on God. Otherwise, I feel like I will fall apart. I feel like this blog is a letter of encouragement, affirmation and instruction to myself. God has put it on my heart to write it, so if even one person finds… Continue reading Walk Worthy of God
