This morning was stressful. There was yelling, complaining, crying. By the time I was downstairs getting breakfast ready and lunches made, still waiting for my kids to get ready, I was on edge. We were running late. After I finished getting their lunches ready, we had 3 minutes. I figured God would make the 3… Continue reading The Gift That We Did Not Know We Needed
Strive for a Crown
I flip through the Spring catalogs, and I love the clothes. The pastel hues are so cute. I want to buy it all. I wish that I was one of those people who say that they have everything they need. Honestly, I have everything that I need too. I still want stuff. Why can't I… Continue reading Strive for a Crown
The Side of Victory
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
