During Week 3 of our "A Confident Heart" study we reflected on one of my very favorite passages from Psalm 90:14 as we explored the theme "Satisfied." "Satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days." Each moment of every day, we are bombarded with… Continue reading Satisfied {A Confident Heart}

Known {A Confident Heart}
I wanted to continue to share some bits and pieces of what we've been learning in our "A Confident Heart" studies on Wednesday nights. The second week of our study we explored the concept of being "KNOWN". To think about being fully KNOWN by God can bring about a variety of emotions: excitement, fear, worry,… Continue reading Known {A Confident Heart}
Doubt {A Confident Heart}
About four weeks ago about 30 women, myself included, began a journey through a book by Renee Swope called A Confident Heart. What a beautiful journey it has been. I was originally hoping to blog each week through the journey, but obviously I'm a few weeks behind already. Better late than never, though, right?!? As… Continue reading Doubt {A Confident Heart}
Resting in Grace
Bloggers Note: Yes. It's been too long since I wrote a blog post. No, I'm not promising to get back on to a regular posting schedule, but I sure hope that happens! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I'm currently reading through the book of Hebrews (which happens to be one of my favorite books of the Bible). I always… Continue reading Resting in Grace
God Provides for Nico, God Provides for Us
As I was looking for something in Psalms the other day, I came across a note next to these verses that reminded me of a little boy, Nico, that lived at the orphanage where I served in Africa back in June 2010. The verses come from Psalm 145: "The eyes of all look to You,… Continue reading God Provides for Nico, God Provides for Us
Worth Waiting For…
Anticipation. As we started a sermon series this past weekend on the return of Christ and the end times, I found myself pondering what things I find myself waiting for. Sure there are plenty of "waiting" times... waiting in line... waiting for a phone call... waiting for dinner to be ready or the pot to… Continue reading Worth Waiting For…
But what can I do?
Tonight at a Bible Study I attend we were talking about the book of Nehemiah. One of the things I've always loved about the story of Nehemiah leading the people to rebuild the walls of the city, comes in Chapter 3. There it talks about how they were able to accomplish the task by simply… Continue reading But what can I do?

Is Cinderella a Christian?
Often when we think of Cinderella, we think of this picture perfect story with a fancy dress, glass slippers, and a handsome prince. Of course we could have a pretty princess smile on our face all the time if we had THAT life. But it's easy to forget what Cinderella's day-to-day life was like: What… Continue reading Is Cinderella a Christian?
