And He Loves Me Anyway… {31 Days of Imperfection – Day 27}

I've said it before, and I'll probably say it again: I LOVE MY LIFEGROUP! Somehow ordinary living rooms become sacred as we open our hearts and open God's Word. At one point last night, our conversation drifted slightly off topic (which is where the most sacred moments are often found) and what happened there reminded… Continue reading And He Loves Me Anyway… {31 Days of Imperfection – Day 27}

Giving Up on Perfect {31 Days of Imperfection -Day 26}

Repost from December 16, 2011 Ever have those days when a message gets repeated over and over and over in various contexts? …one of those days where you start to think that maybe God might be trying to tell you something? Today is one of those days for me. The “something” isn’t anything grand or… Continue reading Giving Up on Perfect {31 Days of Imperfection -Day 26}

Until God’s Love is Enough… {31 Days of Imperfection – Day 24}

Maybe you've been there-I know I have-getting ready to settle in and have some "date" time with Jesus but then, you just don't.  You know it's good for your relationship.  You actually enjoy it most the time you spend with him.  You even miraculously HAVE time to interact a little. And yet... You check your… Continue reading Until God’s Love is Enough… {31 Days of Imperfection – Day 24}

31 Days of Imperfection, God-Sighting Saturday

God Sighting Saturday {31 Days of Imperfection – Day 22}

Each Holy Saturday, I try to comprehend, just a little bit, of what that day might have been like for Jesus' disciples.  The person for whom you gave up everything to follow was just beaten and killed.  What now?  Everything you based the entire last 3 years of your life on seems pointless.  You saw… Continue reading God Sighting Saturday {31 Days of Imperfection – Day 22}

Read it today and give yourself time to ponder... It was when Jesus was broken that his life purpose was fulfilled...… Continue reading The Essense of Brokeness {31 Days of Imperfection – Day 21}

Because God’s Love is Perfect… {31 Days of Imperfection – Day 20}

"Because God's Love is Perfect, I Don't Have to Be" Before I got past even this chapter's title in a book I'm currently reading (A Confident Heart by Renee Swope), I knew it would likely have things to say to inform my 31 Days of Imperfection blog posts.  Within a couple pages I was overwhelmed… Continue reading Because God’s Love is Perfect… {31 Days of Imperfection – Day 20}

31 Days of Imperfection, Devotional

Open Our Eyes, Lord {31 Days of Imperfection – Day 19}

I think sometimes we get so blinded by our imperfections that we forget that we have a Savior who can heal if we'd just ask.  We forget that our imperfections may be the things that draw us closest to Christ. Open our eyes, Lord. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It was an ordinary day… like every other day.  I… Continue reading Open Our Eyes, Lord {31 Days of Imperfection – Day 19}
