JOY IN LIFE
One night during the pandemic, I woke up with this phrase in my mind, "Jesus Only You." This thought that was running through my mind was not by coincidence. I began writing my thoughts down about this phrase "Jesus Only You". The first being He does not change....
IN THE WAITING
Hebrews 4:15 is a foundational verse for me. It says, "For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin." This verse gives me such hope in this season of life. Do you ever...
PRAYING PSALM 91 IN THE PANDEMIC
Psalm 91 has been a chapter that really speaks to my heart during this pandemic. Right after we were in lock-down in our state, the Lord brought this chapter to my mind. We found out that someone we knew had COVID-19 and I began praying these verses and memorizing...
LETTING GO
This blog is for those who struggle with anger or bitterness toward a person or situation. I went through a very difficult work situation and without prayer and the Lord guiding me, I don’t know how I would have endured that trial. Do you find yourself in a...

Authentic Connections
I have been thinking a lot since we have been in a global pandemic. Not being able to see family and friends in person during lock down has been really tough for me. It has me thinking about how we “connect” with each other through social media.

A few months ago, I was in a Bible Study on the book of Proverbs. In the study it spoke about how humble people are willing to listen to advice and input. Then take the advice and filter it with the Bible. It reminded me of 1 Peter 5:6-7, “Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time, casting all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you.”
Where are you God?
So I have been wrestling with these thoughts lately. It has been when I wake up or am driving in my car. It is that “raw” feeling you get when totally exposed. You sense everything is stripped away and all you can say is, “Jesus I trust you.” Have you ever been there?
