We are human. Being a Christian does not make us exempt from times of frustration, fear, uncertainty and sadness. The beauty, however, of experiencing these emotions while also having faith in God, is that he will speak to us and reassure us all is well. (We must listen for, seek out and recognize his voice!) …
Time for a heart checkup
When you want to know about the health of a certain part of your physical body, where do you go? Probably to a specialist in that area. A pulmonologist would know best about your lungs, an orthodontist helps you straighten your smile, a podiatrist would know best about your feet. When it comes to the …
Don’t forget to take your Vitamin “B”!
*Disclaimer: This post is not intended as medical advice. Please pray and consult your doctor or health professional before making any obvious health decisions.

Teach them to love their children
Shouldn’t loving your children come naturally? It should be a package deal. You give birth and become a Mother, therefore you love your children. Don’t get me wrong, there is NOTHING like the love of most mothers for their children. So why, then, does this verse in Titus exist: That they may teach the young …
Don’t bury your head in the sand!
It has been a rough couple years for most of us. The easiest thing to do would be to simply become a hermit, stay at home in our own little world, keeping to ourselves until Jesus returns! I hate watching the news anymore. (In fact, I have not watched mainstream media coverage since the election. …
How do I manage my time better?
Remember – Martha was cumbered about with many things…but Mary chose to do what was most important, and Jesus said she was wise in so doing.
Does time management matter to God?
You see, from the very beginning of creation, as illustrated in the book of Genesis, God set us up with a system by which to tell time. He gave us the sun, moon, stars, seasons, etc. It is by these things that we know one day from the next. God, himself, is the creator and giver of time. We should thank him everyday for the time he has given us. We are never promised more of it! Enjoy and use wisely every moment you have.
While I suffer
God’s people are no stranger to suffering. One of the blessings of having God’s written word in the Bible, is being able to read about those who fought battles before us. With the Lord on their side, He worked all things for good to them. (Romans 8:28) We must keep in mind even in our …
Comparison: the thief of joy
Happy new year! ‘Tis the season for new beginnings, second chances, and goal setting! Over the next few weeks we may all see social media posts about our friends’ lives; how they have been going, and the great plans they have for the new year. While there is nothing wrong with sharing updates about your …
Mothers are nation changers!
Though sometimes viewed as controversial these days, the way that God set up the Biblical family is for Dad to be the head of the home, or have the “final say-so”, and Mom to be the nurturing, supportive ‘nucleus’ of the home that makes it all work right. As mothers, we have the power to …
