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

Faith: Doubt In Your Heart
Do you believe that whatever you ask for in prayer you will receive? I have to admit, sometimes I feel like what I am asking for is more like a dream that won't really come true...until it does. In the bible, Jesus said that if you believe, without any doubts in your heart, these things… Continue reading Faith: Doubt In Your Heart

Love Is the Bond of Perfection
When things get tough, how do you handle yourself? Do you fight to control the situation? Or, are you like me? I just want to curl up with a blanket and sleep. That is how I felt this morning.

I have realized that I… Continue reading God’s Wisdom Reigns

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
Day 7: Keeping My Eyes Focused On The Lord
Yesterday was another day full of unexpected news. My mom was released from the hospital on Tuesday and went home to my sister's house. Yesterday, I called to check on my mom, and she said there were complications. Oh no. "What complications?" I ask. My mom said, not with her, with other sick people in… Continue reading Day 7: Keeping My Eyes Focused On The Lord
