Having a changed heart and renewed mind, the next thing to do is to walk purposefully. The change God makes in us is never meant to stay on the inside. It must express itself in our behaviors. Intention is living on purpose, deciding that points to the heart and mind aligning with God’s intention. It’sContinueContinue reading “Shift Part 3: Moving with Intention”

Shift Part 2: Shifting Our Minds
Once the heart is transformed, the mind needs to be also. Paul reminds us in Romans 12:2 to “be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” Our thinking makes our world because “as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he” (Proverbs 23:7). If the heart is where it’s at, then the mind isContinueContinue reading “Shift Part 2: Shifting Our Minds”
Shift Part 1: Shifting Our Hearts
All true transformation begins in the heart. The Bible teaches, “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it” (Proverbs 4:23). Our heart is the seat of our emotions, desires, and affections. If our hearts are not right with God, then the rest of our lives fall out of balance. MovingContinueContinue reading “Shift Part 1: Shifting Our Hearts”
Look Up
Life has a way of distracting our hearts in every direction. Work deadlines loom, family responsibilities call, bills need to be paid, goals to be met; before we know it, our eyes are fixed on all the activity around us and not on the One who holds it all together. But as soon as weContinueContinue reading “Look Up”
Don’t Miss the Fruit
In my last post, The Trap of Distraction, I shared how God led me to step away from group chats and other noise in January so that I could refocus my time, energy, and creativity on what truly matters. It wasn’t easy, but I’ve come to realize that distractions don’t just steal our time. TheyContinueContinue reading “Don’t Miss the Fruit”
The Trap of Distraction
Distractions are everywhere. Notifications pinging from our phones. Endless scrolling through social media. Group chats buzzing with conversation. Even the mental clutter of worrying about tomorrow or rehashing yesterday can steal our focus from today. If we’re not careful, these distractions will quietly drain our energy and rob us of the ability to walk fullyContinueContinue reading “The Trap of Distraction”
Steward Well: Managing What Matters Most
Part 2: The Assignment Is Purposeful: Are You Managing or Just Maintaining? It’s one thing to carry something. It’s another thing to manage it. We’ve been entrusted with purpose; whether in business, ministry, or leadership, and that trust comes with expectation. The parable of the talents in Matthew 25 reminds us that the master gaveContinueContinue reading “Steward Well: Managing What Matters Most”
Steward Well: Managing What Matters Most
Part 1: The Assignment Is Personal: What Has God Placed in Your Hands? Photo by Philippe Donn on Pexels.com Some assignments don’t come with a title. They come with tears. They come with tugging in your spirit. They come with moments when God whispers, “This is your portion. Steward it well.” Before God ever calledContinueContinue reading “Steward Well: Managing What Matters Most”
Martha or Mary: Which One Are You?
Let’s be honest. Most days feel like a race against the clock, deadlines looming, emails unanswered, orders to fulfill, families to tend to, and somehow, we’re also supposed to keep our sanity and our spiritual life intact. Sound familiar? In Luke 10:38–42, we read about two sisters, Martha and Mary, who welcomed Jesus into theirContinueContinue reading “Martha or Mary: Which One Are You?”
Open the Eyes of My Heart
I’ve been sitting with this thought all week: Do I really reflect the image of Christ, or do I just say I do? It’s easy to wear the title “Christian” and go through the motions, church on Sunday, a verse here and there, a kind word, a reposted Bible quote. But when I look intoContinueContinue reading “Open the Eyes of My Heart”
