I always write about how its easier to do things with God than on your own. That is because I have spent most of my life trying to do everything on my own. It is hard for me to ask for help. I don't think that I can do it better, but I feel like… Continue reading God Equips His Faithful Servants

Give Cheerfully
I have to admit that I do not always give cheerfully. When I am exhausted, and my kids ask me to do one more thing, I don't always smile and do it. Have you ever been there? You are emotionally drained, and yet others still need you? It is hard to give, when you feel… Continue reading Give Cheerfully
Revere the Power of God
When I see a lightning bolt flash in the sky and hear the rumble of thunder from above, I am reminded of God's almighty power. When I see the beauty of nature in the Grand Canyon, sunsets, oceans, and mountains, I am reminded of God's majesty. When I pray and the Holy Spirit fills me… Continue reading Revere the Power of God

Jesus was mocked, whipped, abused, tortured and hung on the cross to die. It shows… Continue reading God Loves Us At Our Worst
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 Easter season is upon us. Lent starts in two days. I grew up Catholic and attended Catholic schools. Easter is late this year on April 21st. Growing up, we always observed Lenten practices. The first day of Lent marks the 40 days before Jesus died on the cross. It starts on Ash Wednesday and… Continue reading Do I Deny Knowing Jesus?
Go to God First
Even when we are not, God is always faithful to us. He is a good father. Good parents have to teach their children good behavior. I have found myself warning my kids, to not repeat bad behavior. I warn them to not do that again or I will take away screen time. I want them… Continue reading Go to God First
