My husband and I will be married a year next month. I have often praised God for providing me with such a kind and loving companion. But lately, I am thankful for how God is using my marriage to change me. Since getting married, I have learned a lot about myself. I have learned that I am impatient. I have learned that I can be passive aggressive. I have trouble
Starting a Prayer Life
Prayer works. You know it works. I know it works. God definitely knows it works. So why don’t we spend more time in prayer or make a higher priority of it? I think that sometimes we don’t know how to pray or where to begin our prayers. We wonder what it is exactly that we are supposed to talk to God about. And after every devotional on the whole internet
The Perfect Hug
Written by: Buife Have you ever been there? Yes, there. Where your world ceases to move…in any direction. It’s like you’re stuck in this time machine with everything moving so fast, and yet, at the same, does seem allstagnant. Those times you want to scream. ‘Maybe, just maybe, the sound of my voice will travel the distance that I can’t seem to go’. Those times are irritating. They are frustrating
Do you struggle with compassion?
I have a confession, sometimes, I have little compassion for people. Sometimes, as in 20% of the time, I’m not as compassionate as I should be. I know I should be more sensitive, and pick up on things that they may need comforting on, but sometimes it’s just hard! The bible tells us that…Matthew 9:36 When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and
Faith
Written by Obi Faith is a HUGE part of most people’s lives. I would like to share a little story with you about how I have come to know and appreciate my faith more. For me having a strong Faith has allowed me to go forward in many things despite the obstacles. My biggest test of Faith thus far has been with my eyesight. Starting in September of 2013 I
Are you a Proverbs 31 woman?
Written by Stephanie K. Here lately, I’ve been thinking “Am I a Proverbs 31 woman?” I know many Christian women who have such a strong faith, and can speak so eloquently, that you know the Lord is speaking through them. They just have that natural ability. I also know some whose kindness melts your heart, or their gentle spirit calms and encourages you, or they just have the right advice
A Need for Healing
Written by Makeda We see it all the time. If we don’t see it, we feel it. The need for healing. There are times when we know that healing will come. Then there are times when we wonder how long it will take for the healing to arrive. Over the past couple of weeks, I have dealt with death. As if that wasn’t enough for me I began to deal
God’s Plan
Written by: Stephanie I’ve questioned my faith a lot in my lifetime. When bad things happen. When good things happen. Even when nothing happens. I question whether or not I should believe. Over the years I have gotten further and further away from my faith. I have let the bad things in my life convince me that I shouldn’t believe. When I was 15 I lost my mother in a
A Moment in Time
written by: Makeda There are times in life when things seem to go so fast that you can’t keep up. There are times when it seems like life has taken you by surprise and there isn’t anything to do but trust the One that knows it all. I know this feeling all too well. There have been times in my life where I could barely comprehend the shifting and changes
