If you’re hurting because of rejection, please know when God has selected you, it doesn’t matter who has rejected you.
We miss out on a lot of beautiful things when we worry, Here are just a few of them.
Guilt and shame are two of Christian’s biggest enemies. They slither into our lives taking our joy, our confidence and hindering our relationships. We try hard to ignore them hoping they will just leave us alone but they only become a heavier weight to bear. Guilt and shame are the voices in our heads that tells us we are not doing enough for God, for our family or job. They are the voices that scream at us telling us to believe that everything that goes wrong is somehow our fault. They spew the lies: If you only would have done this…
Here are three things I have to remind myself everyday in order to stay on track:
Upgrade your prayer life with these important four keys to answered prayers.
It’s easy to praise God when things are going good in our lives, but the sign of true faith is how we react when things are not so good.
We’re not always going to understand everything that happens. True faith is trusting God even when it doesn’t make sense.
It’s interesting the number of times people in my life have discounted the Bible. Once, a man I am close to argued, “But a human man wrote the bible, which means it can be wrong.” Another person said, “How do you know which bible to read? They’re all so different.” And, yet another stated, “I took a theology class in college that discounted the bible and other stuff behind Christianity.” Whoa. This is some heavy stuff. So, why didn’t their arguments drive me away from reading the Bible? My first and only argument for people who present these issues is:…
This past weekend my husband and I took our daughter to a Princess Ball. 90 screaming little girls, all of their mommies (and some daddies), and all the Disney princesses that have ever existed were all in one extremely hot middle school gym. As it was coming to a close, all of the little girls gathered around Queen Elsa (from the movie Frozen) as she sang her signature song, “Let It Go”. The next morning, as I was lying in bed, the song came back to my mind. I have to confess that I’ve only seen the movie 1 time…
Remember God is greater than whatever it is that has you feeling down.
Some of us have allowed fears and limitations to control our lives. It has become our boundaries to go beyond and margins to dream greater things. But if we realize that all these parameters can be surpassed, then we can reach our fullest potential that God has called us to fulfill. Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. – Hebrews 11:1 To surpass all our fears and limitations, it requires faith which means getting rid of your “I can’t” mentality, “maybe tomorrow” mentality and replacing it with your trust in Christ.…
I am obsessed with my looks. There, I said it. Not the type of obsessed that I can’t pass a mirror or other reflective surface without checking myself out. I’m not arrogant in that I think I’m so beautiful that I simply must have another look at myself. I don’t take selfies anywhere and everywhere and scatter them throughout various outlets of social media. I don’t make selfie books for my husband, Kim Kardashian-style. But I’m obsessed with certain aspects of my appearance. I don’t quite know how or when this “obsession” started, but I suspect it had something at…
Sometimes we seek things to fill a void that only God can fill.
Sometimes we have to distance ourselves in order to focus on the things we should have been focusing on all along.
Let me tell you five Bible stories about 5 men of God who have committed unspeakable acts of evil and how God turned their life around.
What are Christian ways to deal with an enemy? Dealing with someone who dislikes you is never easy. It is like walking on eggshells. You are very uncomfortable and always uneasy because you’re constantly butting heads. It is bad enough if it is a co-worker or boss but It is even more difficult if we live with the person(s) and cannot avoid interacting with him/her. So as Christians, what do we do? How do we handle such situations? Here are Five Godly Ways to Deal With an Enemy: 1. Avoid the conflict – As soon as we see it…

God has a plan to bless you. Right now, He’s placing the right people in your life, to lead you to the right place at the right time.
Most people, if not all, have probably looked in the mirror once in their lives and hated what they saw. Some might have wished to change something about themselves physically. Some may have felt they are just not good enough and some may even flat out detest the person they’ve become. Dark experiences may have been tattooed in their minds which make it even harder to love themselves. I am one of those people. I was unhappy and dissatisfied with myself and my life in general. How did I escape out of this seemingly hopeless situation? Learn to forgive yourself “If we confess…
