Maybe it was a surprise plan they figured out, something they said about another person, or a not-so-nice word they picked up. I know we don’t have to teach our… Continue reading Where Did You Hear That?

We need to be careful and intentional with our words and actions, including your social media posts. I’m not saying you should never… Continue reading Are You Slowly Damaging Your Marriage?
Glorify God: 1 Corinthians 10:31
1 Corinthians 10:31 says, “Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.” We all have a purpose, regardless of our position, gender, race, or financial status: to glorify God.

Thoughts From Revelation
For the last few days, I have been reading Revelation for my personal devotions. There is a lot going on in this Book. My pastor has preached through it verse by verse, and I still feel like there’s a lot I just don’t understand. I’m okay with that. Some things just won’t be perfectly clear… Continue reading Thoughts From Revelation
Bought With a Price
What was the last thing you spent money on? Did that item meet your expectations? What if it didn’t? Our money is valuable to us. It is something we need and it never seems like we have enough of it.

With Good Will

I am sure I’m not the only one that needs it. Webster’s 1828 dictionary explains good will as being… Continue reading With Good Will

When You Don’t Know What to Say
Have you ever felt like you should pray or praise in a more specific way, but you couldn’t find the words? It seems like our words aren’t enough sometimes. Can we really praise God for all that He is and does when we can’t even wrap our minds around all He is or does? So… Continue reading When You Don’t Know What to Say
Is Anything Too Small?
We often say, “Is there anything too big (or hard) for God?” We know the answer is “No.” Nothing is greater than our God and this truth brings us much comfort and encouragement. However, I feel like we never think of the opposite. Is anything too small for God? Things we don’t think are significant. … Continue reading Is Anything Too Small?
