What gives value to human life? Is it being wanted? Or perhaps having a name, likes, dislikes, and dreams. I ask this question because I am confused by why some feel compassion, anger, and sadness over the murder of 10-year-old children but are not upset by unborn children being murdered in the womb. I wonderRead the Post
All is Well When all isn’t Well
All is well; words she had spoken when all wasn’t well; she climbed onto her mule with haste and rode at the pace her servant set, remembering as she rode the feel of her dead child in her arms. As she approached her destination, Gehazi ran out to greet her, asking if all was well.Read the Post
You Do You: You Do Holy
We live in a you do you culture: a society that says whatever you feel is best for you is right, and unfortunately, this lie has been bought by many Christians. Having a view of you do you, is destructive and a breeding ground for sinful lifestyles. God did not create us to do us but to doRead the Post
Be Aware: Obedience May Require Discomfort
When I find myself praying throughout the week for someone in my life, I ask God to send someone to that person to show them his love or to speak the truth to them that they need to hear. Obedience has become increasingly important to me lately because someone must be obedient for those prayersRead the Post
Take Heart He is Calling You
I was reading in Mark 10 when I got to the story where blind Bartimaeus is crying out as Jesus is going by. The crowd rebuked him, but he continued to cry out until finally, they spoke these words to him, Take heart. Get up; He is calling you. Elated, he jumped to his feet, threwRead the Post
The Cross Bought Much More
With the message from Easter Sunday still fresh in our hearts, I feel compelled to post this today. Although we all recognize that the gift of Jesus’ blood shed for us rescued us from hell, the truth is his death purchased even more than that. Although that is more than enough and much more thanRead the Post
The Bible is the Literal Word of God
According to a survey done in the US, only 11 percent of Americans read the Bible daily, and only 24% believe that the Bible is the literal word of God. Doubting the Bible is 100% God’s word is a dangerous belief that is destroying us. Hosea 4:6 says, my people are destroyed by lack of knowledge. OurRead the Post
Three Lessons we can Learn from Ruth
I’ve always loved the story of Ruth because her life was an act of love and obedience. Although she had a deep love for Naomi, following her to a new land would have been a huge decision. Ruth left everything familiar to her: her parents, her land, her people, and her gods to do whatRead the Post
Are my Words Wholesome or Unwholesome?
I took this last week off from writing and social media to turn my focus fully to God; I started the week by studying Proverbs; I highlighted verses that stuck out to me and wrote down the scriptures that had a common theme that applied to my life. Throughout my reading of Proverbs, a common themeRead the Post
Time to Return to Our First Love
Lately, I have been thinking about how much sin is in the church and the hearts of Christians. Sinful practices have become social norms, and no one wants to call these practices out for fear of being called judgmental. I get this, and I am working through how to stand up against sin and preachRead the Post
