Do we blend in with the world? Do our choices, behaviors, attitudes and mindsets reflect the culture of this world….or do they reflect Christ? Each day we are plagued with the mindset of a lost world. We see it on social media, on television, on the news, in fashion magazines and even with some “Christian”…
A Green & Fruitful Tree
Do you ever feel like if only your circumstances changed or got better then you could be your best? You are waiting on everything to be and feel just right and when the circumstances are bad, you lose hope. I’ve got good news!! We don’t have to wait until our circumstances change! The Bible tells…
Be Still
Waiting on God brings calmness to our souls. When we frantically try to control and figure everything out we are like a restless baby that squirms and wiggles in her Mama’s lap. However, when we quiet our hearts in God’s Word and His unchanging love for us, we can become still. Secure. Peaceful. #hope #bestill…
Faith, Hope & Love
Who or what you put your faith in matters. Who or what your hope is based upon matters. Your definition of what love is matters. Faith, hope and love that originate from God and line up with His word are anchors in our stormy seas. God’s faith, hope and love are the real deal and…
Anxious Heart

You don’t hear an answer, so while you are waiting, maybe you should ask a friend’s opinion? You feel…
Are you anxious?
What are you anxious about today? I love today’s verse. We are reminded that when our focus is on and our trust is in Christ, our heart and mind is guarded by HIS peace. Picture a Dad protecting his little son from a rabid and angry barking dog. The Dad stands in between the little…
The Focus of Faith
Things are not always as they seem. On the outside we can look defeated. However, as Christians, on the inside we have already won the battle. If we look at our circumstances, we may not see any hope. If we look to Jesus and His finished work on the cross, we already have the victory….
He is Able
No matter what you are facing, He is able to carry you through. No matter how broken your heart feels, He is able to heal you. No matter how far you have gone, He is able to restore your soul. CHRIST IS ABLE. Not only that….. He loves you deeply. He keeps His Word. He…
