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

Build Each Other Up
I had never considered protecting my heart through faith and love. This morning, when I read the scriptures from Thessalonians, the verses said to put on a breastplate of faith and love. 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

The bible is a powerful book. When I start my day, I remind myself to lay my worries before God. Through good times and difficult times, I always have concerns.

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
