God's Character, Hope and Peace, Paul

Live a Life Worthy of God

This morning, it is chilly. The sky is dark and gloomy, as rain clouds form. It has been a dry month. We need the rain. Sometimes, you need rain to appreciate the rainbows and sunshine. 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

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

Choosing Faith Each Day, Paul

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

God's Character, Paul, Trusting in God

Love, Peace, Comfort and Patience

At this stage of my life, I am going through a difficult time. I am learning that the only way for me to get through hard times is to turn to God.

A breastplate protects your heart. The next line says to put on a helmet as a hope of salvation. A helmet protects our… Continue reading Build Each Other Up

Peace Through The Storm

Today is an exciting day. I have a job interview for a part-time job. I have been praying for a job where I could work a few hours a week and still be home for my children and visit my mom. My mom has a brain tumor, or stage 4 Glioblastoma cancer. She is in… Continue reading Peace Through The Storm

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

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
