Excited to be with God?
One of the best times of our day should be when we sit down to spend time with God. If it isn’t then maybe there is something that you need to change in your life. “Wow! I was not looking to get scolded this morning.” I know that, but sometimes we need the good, hard…

Collected… or chaos!
It surprises me at times to learn that the people I though were so put together are actually not. We all have someone in our lives that seems to have all their ducks in a row, and to be flying through life without any glitches. But what we don’t know, is that they are struggling…

“I’m Thinking. I’m Thinking.”
What are you thinking about today? We spend so much time in our thoughts, but too often we don’t think about what we are thinking about. I know that sounds weird and maybe a little crazy, but it is something that God mentions in his word. 2 Corinthians 10:5 Casting down imaginations, and every high…

Heaven or Hell?
One day many years ago, I attended a meeting and the speaker asked us to look at the person to the left, to the right, in front, and behind us and ask the question: “Heaven or Hell?” Every person on earth will either end up in Heaven or Hell. This is not a popular topic…

Is it Vacations Time?
This is usually the time of year when everyone is itching for a vacation. It is cold outside and no good holiday breaks in sight.

Just a reminder.

How important is prayer in your life?
I have learned more and more just how important prayer is in our daily lives. Too often, we go about our days and forget that God wants us to talk to Him and spend time in his Word. Fellowship with God in prayer, isn’t only for talking to God, but it is also the way…

Family
The Bible teaches that God established two institutions one is the Church, which we talked about earlier, and the second is the Family. The Family and Church are meant to work together to make a strong foundation for spiritual growth and service to the Lord. In the book of Genesis 2: 15-25, God gives the…

Free will.
This is a tough topic. For a lot of people serving God seems like you are giving up on living life the way you want. But… it isn’t like that at all. Even though the Bible clearly explains that there are things we shouldn’t do, it also helps us to see things through God’s eyes.…

Becoming a Valentine
Dear Becoming a Valentine, I know that this is probably your biggest dream right now. I get it. I was there too. When I hit puberty and my girly mind started seeing boys as potential relationships rather than having cooties, everything changed. The boys I once thought were gross now seemed cute. It was weird…
