John 13:35, 17:23 In today’s scripture, God is saying that one of the ways we can show we belong to Him is by loving one another. This can be done in various acts and may even be easy to show towards others that we like or who are seemingly like us. However, we are called […]

YOU are someone’s miracle. Someone prayed for you, wished for you, dreamed of you. Someone called life into you- someone NEEDS you, and someone is counting on you. Make no mistake— you are NOT a mistake, and you are your own purpose. You have a reason for breath and life in your bones, and YOU […]

Who am I? Why am I here? I believe that goes through everyone’s mind from time to time; but do we ever get the answer to that question? The answer can’t be any simpler but yet complicated. Why are we here and who we are is found in Christ. We are deeply loved children of God and […]

Hebrews12:11 Oh how true today’s scripture is. Discipline in the beginning is painful but later it will yield peace. Yes! I am looking forward to the peace part! I have struggled with my weight for years. I know what I am supposed to do, it’s the discipline of doing that is the problem. I have […]

She continued with, “It sucks now; everyone is quitting, nobody likes […]

John 14:15, 21 In today’s scripture, Jesus is reminding us that by following God and being obedient to him in essence is how we can show our love for Him. Now this is not saying that God wants us to perform or act in such a way where we are trying to earn His love or […]

2 Corinthians 5:5 We all have taken a trip. Planned it all out carefully in detail. We can all agree it’s the preparation of taking the trip that is more stressful. Making sure we remembered to make sure the cat has plenty of food and water, turn the lights out, lock all the doors, ask […]

Galatians 6:9 I have been on a cleansing diet recently and we all know how that goes; but something stuck out to me that I didn’t realize before. If I don’t see results, even small ones, I give up and go back to eating like I used to. This is the same with our Christian […]
