Choosing Faith Each Day, Paul

Let God’s Glory Shine Through You

Good Morning! It is a cold day here. The kids are off school today for an administrative day. We made slime this morning. My daughter added pink food coloring, and my son added green food coloring to his slime. After washing their hands for 20 minutes, my son's hands are still a light shade of… Continue reading Let God’s Glory Shine Through You

Peace Through The Storm

Some people say 2020 is a new decade and some say 2021 is a new decade. I do not know which one is technically correct, but I would like to think that I am starting a new decade. I start 2020 with sadness, having lost my mom to cancer on Christmas day and my dad… Continue reading Peace Through The Storm

Replace Your Weariness With Peace

This morning, I woke up feeling overwhelmed. Do you ever feel that way? I felt like most of the world was against me, and that feels like too much. I prayed that God would take away my burdens and give me rest for my soul. We are always supposed to be happy and cheery, but… Continue reading Replace Your Weariness With Peace

God's Character, Paul

Power Through Jesus

We have power through Jesus Christ. I have been trying to wrap my head around this idea for awhile now. Whatever thing we are going through, God can give us the power to endure it. If we want to change ourselves, God can break the chains that hold us down. In the bible, Paul prays… Continue reading Power Through Jesus

God’s Love Compared To Toxic Relationships

When you truly believe in Jesus, your heart changes. We still live in a world with everyone else, good people, bad people, believers, and unbelievers. I have to remind myself that God created me for a purpose. God considers me worthy.  There will be people in my life that will look down on me. I… Continue reading God’s Love Compared To Toxic Relationships

God Fights For Us

I hope that all my American friends had a great Thanksgiving yesterday. I hope that everyone reading this today has many reasons to be thankful. Over the past year, I have been getting closer to God. The closer I get to God, the more thankful I am that God is so, so good. Everything good… Continue reading God Fights For Us

When You Trust In God, Even Fire Has No Power To Harm You

This morning, I was thinking about the scriptures verses in Daniel. When Daniel's friends were put in the fiery furnace, they did not know what would happen to them. They knew that they were being put to death. Who survives a fiery furnace? Their faith was steadfast and did not waiver. They answered to God,… Continue reading When You Trust In God, Even Fire Has No Power To Harm You

In Everything, Give Thanks

One of the best things we can do for ourselves is to be thankful during difficult times. I have been trying to focus on the positive things in my life and not the difficulties, because difficulties will consume me. I opened up the bible to 1 Thessalonians this morning. It says to rejoice always. Some… Continue reading In Everything, Give Thanks

Praying That Your Struggles Turn to Joy

Today is Veteran's Day. I am thankful for all the men and women who have served in the military to protect our freedoms in the United States of America. Those that serve in the military make so many sacrifices. Freedom is not free. Some make the ultimate sacrifice and die, so we can have freedom.… Continue reading Praying That Your Struggles Turn to Joy

Pursue the Goodness of God

After we had children, I really wanted to teach them things that I did not know growing up. I want their lives to easier. I don't want them to make the mistakes that I made. I love how the epistles of Paul tell us how to live our lives. Paul wrote letters to the newly… Continue reading Pursue the Goodness of God
