Christian living blog posts written by and for today’s Christian women.
Hold on, hold on. She sent me a nasty email. How dare she do that! I have just been wronged. By a woman in the church. She wasn’t supposed to do that. I was doing a good job. Wasn’t I? That was the beginning of one of my experiences with church hurt. I’m sure you…
This past summer was rough for me. Not just the normal summer struggles, but I spent a couple weeks in the hospital and the remainder of the summer recuperating. Just when I thought I was as good as new, I over did it and ended up back in my doctor’s office. It started out as…
Procrastination. Does anyone else struggle with this? Please tell me I’m not alone. A little more than two years ago, I lost one of those tiny pins that help hold my glasses together. I tend to not take care of things I need very quickly… this means my husband jury rigged a solution – he…
Nothing can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus. (Romans 8:38-39) I just want to leave this scripture here and stare. Write nothing further. Seeing it over a social media feed encouraged me greatly. It’s been a few weeks now of wondering if the cloud over my head, between God and I,…
Thank you for all the kind comments about our daughter’s cat adventures. I’m a little in mourning because Boston went back to his owner. He was an imperfect cat but he was more like having one of my own. Ruthie says hello to all her fans. We have just spent ten days together while mommy…
Job 17:15 “Where then is my hope – who can see any hope for me?” Sitting on the cold concrete porch, my heart pounded within my chest over my new reality. I wasn’t enough. I wasn’t enough. Those words resounded within my head so loudly I wondered if everyone around me could hear them. Were…
My son is officially a high schooler. He will be a freshman this coming school year, but I already see it. He’s friends with all the lifeguards at the pool. Random high school guys (and girls) talk to him. He took a practice test for his driving permit today. And he passed. He is ready…
You can live a Christian life, and still have a stagnant relationship with Jesus. I know, because I have been. My faith hasn’t grown this summer. In fact, it might have been a while since it has… I still pray and go to church and Bible study every week. I have my quiet time each…
(This post contains affiliate links) I’ve had Taekwondo on the brain lately; my two oldest have been practicing their forms and board breaks for upcoming belt tests. My eleven-year-old will have to break one-inch thick pine boards with various kicks to progress to his next belt. Lately in practice he has been able to break…
Does anyone else have a love-hate relationship with summer? I love the extra time with my kids, but hate how little I get done around the house. I love spending time outdoors in the sun, but I hate the extreme heat. I love the relaxed schedule, but miss my normal routine. All of this led…
I believe God created us with the desire and the need for community – first with Him, but also with one another. What I want to share today is what I’ve been learning about community within the church – specifically women in the church. I’ve seen a wide range of how this can look, from…
I’ve been discussing ways to stay fresh in our daily walk with God… something I’ve found I need so much more the older I get. The first two points were to see things through the eyes of new Christians, and to keep a proper perspective of my own abilities. This last point is to get…
