Waiting is hard. Sometimes, waiting on God is incredibly hard. Waiting can feel like a giant roller coaster of faith—some days it’s exciting, some days it’s terrifying, and others you want to get off the ride. Over the past few months, I’ve seen friends move out of the waiting season and into receiving their promises. Mind you,…
I was two weeks postpartum scrambling to feed my hungry daughter in the wee hours of the night. “Hey, I’m here. I know you’re hungry” I told her. She had a tendency to go from sort of hungry to starved in a matter of seconds. I picked her up as her cry became desperate. I…
Believing in God for Big Things by Jaime Hampton Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom. Psalm 145:3 (NIV) If you’re a beach person (or were when you were a kid, like me), you know how it works: you stand in the water, talking with other people…
My prayer life hasn’t been that stellar lately. Non-existent might be a better word for it. So today, I wanted to offer you some advice: Don’t stop praying… you know, like I did. My life has been pretty chaotic lately. From the passing of my grandmother, to the graduation of my son, it seems like…
“Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!” Psalm 46:10 Psalm 46:10 is one of those verses most Christians know by heart. It’s a good coffee cup verse, one that goes on t-shirts and tumblers. However, it’s also one that most…
In life perspective is key. I can attest to being in situations in life that I truly did not know my way out of. Long story short, I recently relocated to Montreal Quebec and found myself without employment or stable housing. If I solely looked at the physical, I would have already given up due…
When was the last time you felt frazzled? That’s where I’m at right now. I have a decent amount of things I should be doing, but one thing went wrong and it left me feeling frazzled. Which eats up my brainpower and keeps me from focusing on anything else. Have you ever been there? Truth…
As I was reading my Bible this morning I was in Matthew reading the Sermon on the Mount. The phrase, “tomorrow will worry about itself” stopped me in my tracks because I have definitely been worrying about tomorrow. I’ve been stressing myself out over something that’s going to happen on Friday this week. There’s nothing…
As a little girl, I always dreamed of being a hard working woman. I played with my dolls and stuffed animals, but they weren’t my children like how my seven year old daughter plays. They were my students. I would set up my classroom in the dining room right in front of the bookshelf that…
This week I witnessed a miracle. Our second grandchild was born last Sunday, a little girl. She’s as beautiful as her older sister, who was born only a year ago now. God is in the miracle business, just like he was back in Enoch’s day, and Noah’s day, and Moses’, and King David’s, and Hannah’s,…
“Love your enemies.”-Matthew 5:44(NIV) Clearly, Jesus was not talking about me. His audience must have been the “thousands of years ago brutal mob who was known to occasionally throw stones and needed some serious behavioral modification.” Not me. I don’t have any enemies! At least, I don’t think so… I’m a suburban housewife with four…
You’re a Christian but maybe you’re not and you’re reading this. It’s okay. It’s for you too. Prayer is one of the fundamental principles of your faith and of life. People pray. There are untold sermons, books and more about prayer and how to do it. But, what if your praying is just hard. What…
