Jesus Enjoys Giving

My two grandchildren, Isabella and Liam, live very close, and I am fortunate they visit often. One of their favorite activities is to check out Grandmom’s snack bag, which is just for them. I intentionally purchase new snack items they may have never had. They open their mouths wide whenever I ask them if they […]

God’s Power Works Best in Weakness

I enjoy playing worship music in the kitchen for inspiration and company. I don’t usually listen intently, but my ears perked up when I heard the question posed by a honey-voiced announcer: “Who have you disappointed today?” Being a people pleaser, I made a list in my head. I didn’t get to the grocery store, […]

Few things will bring joy to your life like knowing you’re following the dreams God has put in your heart.

Ephesians 2:10 For we are His workmanship created in Christ Jesus for good work, which God prepared ahead of time for us to do. God has made each of us unique and in His image.

Joy is a fruit of the Holy Spirit, who lives in all believers. If Jesus Christ is your Lord and Savior, His Holy Spirit lives in you and gives you the ability to go through every situation with love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness(humility), and self-control.

PROACTIVE VERSES REACTIVE

I really enjoyed this article by Hannah Brencher and I want to share it with you! Before we move full steam ahead into the holidays, I want to show up with a simple reminder for you and me: This year isn’t over yet. It’s not time to throw in the towel. There is still a […]

ACCEPTANCE

I love the fact that God has promised to never reject anyone who comes to Him. Yes, this is a promise from God. You may think that my behavior is not acceptable, but God makes us acceptable “in Him,” meaning in Jesus Christ. If you have faith in Jesus, you are considered to be “in […]

Guarding Your Soul This Christmas. By Chuck Allen

I love this time of year, or at least I’ve convinced myself that I do. I often think that I reminisce of how I’d like to remember Christmas more than I actually love this most wonderful time of the year. With the kids jingle-belling and everyone telling you be of good cheer, well that’s just […]

Thanks-Living

While many associate Thanksgiving Day with family, stretchy pants, football and shopping, let it propel us toward a heart of gratitude. It is a time to consider God’s goodness, grace, and provision for us. He is the Author of encouragement, help, and hope. I like to think of Thanksgiving as trust-giving and thanks-living.
