So many times I find myself trying to make things go my way. I do tend to lean on Christ for this but sometimes I get ahead of myself. I am to WAIT for God to MOVE. Not try to do His work for him. So many times I need to let God do His thing and be constantly awash with His presence in my life. That doesn’t mean I’m perfect. None of us are. It doesn’t mean I’m overextending by leaps and bounds in trying to find meaning. We know Who to go to. We know who to lean on. In His might and power Jesus should be like a soft pillow. In our quest for betterment, we should remember Who holds us in His hand.

Jesus, the most beautiful Name of earth. Jesus… makes my heart skip a beat just to hear His name. I’ve been learning about Satan in my Bible study. It’s so comforting to know that God has already beaten him. He has already won! So I don’t need to do it in my own strength. If I try to do it in my strength, I have already failed. I know that in His power and might, I can beat Satan every time. He is holy. He is worthy. He is righteous. He is just and true. At His name, rulers stumble and fall. At His name mountains move and the people quake. Just the sound of His name and all these things happen. He made the skies and the heavens and yet we are the only thing made in His image. Think how special that is. One being created in His image. And now I wanted to leave you with a prayer. Jesus, Thank You for all that You are. Thank You for going ahead of us and never...

God is with those who mourn. He is acquainted with grief. He bore our sorrows with every last breath He had. As the blood was oozing out of his body, even as He Himself was tortured and mutilated, He said not a word. What is the practical application here? Jesus knows what you are going through. He knows what you are dealing with because He already had to bear the brunt of it. He is familiar with our struggles. Hey we all have hard things that happen to us. We all wrestle with flesh and blood. The trauma of losing a child. The loss of a job. Someone dying unexpectedly in the close nit family. A devastating move. Failure to launch a start up business. The list goes on. Life is so hard sometimes. I hope you realize there is mercy in your grief. There is hope in your situation. You know how I know this? Because I know pain. I am struggling with my school right now. I’ve been at near...

You know what I’ve been noticing lately? I’ve been noticing how good people can be to each other. In the checkout line, at church, school, or in the park. I’ve been noticing people being kind to their fellow man. At the same time, I know the human heart is desperately wicked. Who can know it but God Himself? I wonder if there is a way for each person reading this to go a little bit out of the way to help their fellow man today. Maybe it’s a estranged family member that needs fixing with the relationship. Maybe that means paying for someone’s food or gas ahead of you. Maybe it means calling someone to tell them how much they mean to you. I know for me, I am going to look how I can bless my sons and husband and maybe call someone I don’t normally call. Look for a way to go a bit above the call of duty to help your fellow man. Be blessed and till next...

Lately I haven’t been watching the news. And maybe that’s a problem! Staying up to date with what is happening and in our country and abroad should be a thing. So that I can know how to pray for our nation’s leader and President Trump especially. I need to pray for wisdom for him and them. I need to pray for unification and collaboration and for peace. Praying for them should be a priority. I realize this is not a popular subject to many but we are called to pray… and pray HARD for our country and for the issues at stake in the next election. For our children and the world they are growing up in. For their future and all that’s at stake here. This is really short, but I hope you enjoyed reading. Please take some time right now to pray for our leaders and our children’s future. 2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble...
