Yet the LORD will command his lovingkindness in the daytime, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life. Psalm 42:8 Have you ever dreaded nighttime? Why is it that when night hits everything seems worse? Colds are more miserable at night. Sadness hits harder …
What are you doing with your heritage?
Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward. Psalm 127:3 The word heritage in this verse means “inheritance, or property”. Your children are God’s property, gifted to you for their time here on this earth. What are you doing with that gift? We would all say …
Stepping Into Your Place
My husband and I like to go have a walk on the beach on our date nights. There’s something about the water, salty air and the waves that beacons us. We take off our shoes, hold hands and walk in the water. It is so refreshing and so romantic. We talk and sometimes we just …
The Eyes of Envy
The saying “Your eyes are green with envy!” is a very true statement. Sometimes no matter the biological color of our eyes they turn to a not so lovely shade of green. Why is it that, all of a sudden we look at the prosperity or fame of another and become uneasy about it? Envy …

Take a Look In the Mirror!
Do you ever just take a good look at yourself in the mirror? I mean just stop what you’re doing and look? I’ll be honest, sometimes it is very hard to look at myself, see blemishes and not try to cover up or justify them. I don’t want others to see my faults or failures. …

How’s your joy?
Are you lacking in the joy department? I’m not talking about temporal happiness, as the world would define it. The world finds its happiness in things, people, and situations.
