The past two days have been a little tough in parenting. Many times I feel over my head in parenting…I really have no clue what I am doing! BUT, that is where in my weakness, He is strong. I am learning to cry out to Him often and seek Him in His wisdom in how […]

Reflecting on my 20’s :-)
I have been thinking about all the things that have happened this decade! SO much change. So many beautiful moments….this decade began with me beginning my journey with the Lord. I’ve been thinking a lot about that moment lately. For so many reasons… It’s been 10 years with the Lord. It’s been such a beautiful, life-changing […]
Do You Walk in White?
“We were buried with Him…that just as Christ was raised from the dead…even so we also should walk in newness of life” (Romans 6:4) No one experiences complete sanctification without going through a “white funeral” –the burial of the old life. If there has never been this crucial moment of change through death, sanctification will […]
Lent Season Ideas :-)
Lent is the season when we are reminded of Jesus’ sacrifice. It burdens are hearts to also sacrifice something for Him, out of our love of Him, our great thanks for what He has done for us, and our desire to share in His suffering. Usually, I think of something tangible to give up…like a food, […]
Valentine’s Day ideas
There are SO many aspects of God’s love to focus on…that I really didn’t know where to start this Valentine’s Day. I love that though! There isn’t any one way to display it or appreciate it! I love differences in expression and understanding and always love hearing how different people perceive things. It broadens my […]
Valentine’s Day :-)
This was probably the best Valentine’s Day I have had ever! I have learned to be so thankful for God’s gifts, no matter how they come and focus on showing God’s love to others instead of wondering what will come my way 🙂 God blessed my attitude and poured His love out to me yesterday through […]
True LOVE for Valentine’s Day
These are some of the verses I have read this week and they are pefectly timed for Valentine’s Day 2012 🙂 : 1 John 4:7-11: “Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know […]
Post-Advent :-(
This is always a tough time for me. I am not entirely sure why, but I think with all the excitement, joy, and anticipation of the Advent Season…I feel a bit sad afterward that it is all over. BUT, truly, it is only beginning! Christ’s birth was the beginning of what was to be the […]
4th Week of Advent
The Lord says: “Be Still and Know that I am God.” – Psalm 46:10 This is the last week of advent!! And then we get to celebrate Jesus’ birth!!! We are so excited to spend Christmas together as a family this year. I have felt that the Lord wants us to pour out our love […]
3rd Week of Advent
I still feel there is much more to be cleansed from our hearts and home, so we are going to make a MONTH of cleansing. Everywhere I turn, God is calling me to live a SIMPLE life. He is telling me to get rid of EVERYTHING that distracts me from him or leads me into […]
