Love and Praise, Paul

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

Daniel, God's Character, Paul

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

Choosing Faith Each Day, Paul

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

You Can Be Filled With The Fullness Of God

Do you ever feel anxious or worried? Lately, I feel very anxious and worried. If I dwell on what is going on around me, I will be a nervous wreck. That is the exact opposite of what Christ wants us to do. God does not want us to worry about anything. The bible says, "Be… Continue reading You Can Be Filled With The Fullness Of God

God Will Bring Glory Through Suffering

On the drive home from seeing my mom, I was thinking about where I was five years ago. Five years ago, my husband was laid off from his job. I was working from home part-time. My kids were 2 and 4 years old. We had just taken our house off the market, because it didn't… Continue reading God Will Bring Glory Through Suffering

My Faith Must Be Bigger Than My Fear

This morning, I attended the women's bible study at my church. We read through the book of Philippians. The book was written by Paul, while he was in prison. Paul was converted by God. It was a complete and utter transformation from murdering Christians to sharing the gospel. His letters are books in the bible.… Continue reading My Faith Must Be Bigger Than My Fear

There Is No Need For An Explanation

Yesterday at church, we read Chapter 3 in the book of Daniel. Our pastor did a great job explaining it. Its an amazing story. Daniel's friends get thrown in a fiery furnace and come out unharmed. Not one hair of their heads was singed. It was a miracle. I was fascinated with their attitudes before… Continue reading There Is No Need For An Explanation

My Tool Kit: Faith, Bible, Prayers

Do you ever pray and wonder if or when God will answer your prayers? I used to almost give myself a panic attack trying to figure out if God would answer my prayer and if so, when. I would become stressed and worried. I had no patience, because my faith was not strong enough. I… Continue reading My Tool Kit: Faith, Bible, Prayers
