Your Heart
Did you know that God is after your heart above all else? Why your heart and not your mind or your marital status or your family? Why is God after your heart? The Bible says that out of the heart, the mouth speaks. (Matt. 12:34) Jesus also said that everything that goes into us doesn’t…

Rest vs. Hard Work
Rest, rest, rest! It’s pushed at us so much at church, in Christian books and posts. The idea of rest is so important – ITS A COMMAND FROM GOD! We are in a generation that is so busy that it can feel like the world is on our shoulders and it’s all on us or…

I hope you fail
Catchy title, I know. Hear me out. We are our own worst enemy at times. We do have a real enemy but a lot of the times that enemy can just use us against ourselves. So with that said, your ego and pride can really be used against you. If you are a child of…

How do you know the difference between something good and something great? Good things will keep us from God’s ultimate plan for our lives. Gods purposes in our lives should prevail! Have you heard the saying, “good is the enemy of greatness?” Well, it is in fact true! An example of this could be anything…

The Valley
It’s just a season. Baby, don’t camp out in the valley, it’s just a season. I have life lessons all over this one. When you’re down and out or at your last few dollars or have to move back in with you parents or your car is broken down and you don’t know when or…

Walk it Out
Talk is cheap. Coming from someone who’s love language is words of affirmation – this is a hard pill to swallow. Let me unfold this.. Words matter. The way we talk about ourselves, others, our future and our relationships all make a huge impact on us and those around us. BUT. Sometimes words spoken need…

Spiritual Warfare
The battle is already won! So, why do we still have spiritual warfare? The Bible says the enemy walks about like a roaring lion seeking who he may devour. When we become Christians we still have to walk out our authority in Christ. Some of it is learning what is just our flesh wanting its…

Boundaries
A safety net against making mistakes. Limits. Setting limits creates freedom. Let me explain… If you have no boundaries or very low boundaries then just about anything can go in relationship. Then, you’re kind of victim to circumstances as they come your way. You’re not put in a position to decide but situations are thrown…
