It’s time to start preparing our hearts for Christmas. Are you ready? If so you’ve come to the right place. It happened again this year. The holiday season started to fly by at record speeds. Before I knew what was happening, Thanksgiving was upon us. Now it’s December and Christmas is near. My first Christmas…
You might already know that my name is spelled a little differently. The most common spelling is J-a-m-i-e, while mine is spelled J-a-i-m-e (I’ve been known to be confused with a Hispanic male by people I correspond with in writing only!). What you probably don’t know is that my mother chose to spell my name…
10 Truths from Isaiah for Difficult Days is a guest post written by Joby Saliceti Our homeschool day began with so much promise. The weather forecast pledged sunshine and warmth, perfect for outdoor adventures. The assignments seemed doable – nothing too challenging in math, English or history. My two daughters seemed to get a good…
A young man, I’ll call him Steve, was recently told that he’d occasionally be teaching a young adult class at church in the next few months. Steve was talking to me about this, and something was bothering him. A friend of his at church told him they weren’t sure he’d be able to relate to…
For the past few weeks, I’ve felt this frenetic pull within me. It’s this desire to do more than I currently am doing. I feel this need to propel myself into a new season by my own willpower, but that goes directly against submitting and surrendering to God and His plans. Lately, I’ve been getting…
As a mother of two lively toddlers, each day unfolds a new chapter in the heartwarming yet sometimes tumultuous journey of parenthood. The echoes of laughter resonate through our home, painting our days with joy and gratitude. Yet, amidst the giggles lie the inevitable toddler tantrums – sudden, intense, and often unexpected. The storm of…
I’ve always admired people who have a ton of Scripture memorized, but that’s not me. Try as I might, I just can’t seem to get it. It is what it is. I’ve never been very good at memorizing things, but after seven years of migraines, my memory is definitely shot. My mom has memorized entire…
I had to stop and look up Bible verses for insecurity this week. I started a new job working for a prayer line, and I feel woefully inadequate. In my mind, this job was perfect for me because I love to pray. And, don’t get me wrong, the prayer part of my job is great….
This past summer has been a blur. Due to my husband’s critical illness and subsequent complications, I am steeped in the role of being a caretaker. I love my husband dearly, but I must be honest and say that caretaking is one of the most challenging jobs I have ever done. It becomes all-consuming, and…
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…
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…
