Wanted: Day 3

Ambitiously Adopted 5 God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure.  Ephesians 1:5(NLT) As a child, I had many questions because I was not raised by my biological parents. Therefore, I struggledContinue reading “Wanted: Day 3”

Wanted: Day 2

We Are SO Loved! For God SO loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16 Can you think of someone who wouldn’t hesitate to give their life for you? A dear loved one was probably the first to come to mind. Did youContinue reading “Wanted: Day 2”

Burden of Confession

Reblogged from the blog, “Maggie Tiggles”, by Kathy Wire God has given me a burden of confession. It started when He laid this on my heart: Sometimes, when I want something that I know I shouldn’t, I don’t want to cry to God for deliverance from temptation. “I want it, I’ll have it,” is whatContinue reading “Burden of Confession”

The Great Comforter

 Matthew 5:4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. Grief can be a tricky thing. It’s unpredictable and comes in waves. One moment, you can be happy and unable to get out of bed, the next. I had never experienced the loss of a loved one until the death of my fatherContinue reading “The Great Comforter”

26“If then you cannot do even a very little thing, why do you worry about other matters? 27“Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; but I tell you, not even Solomon in all his glory clothed himself like one of these. 28“But if God so clothes the grass in the field, whichContinue reading “Jireh: The Lord Who Provides”

After the Storm

Last week, I had the opportunity to hit the road with my husband and 2 youngest children to vacation in Florida.  We were met by several thunderstorms on the way there. At times, it rained so hard that we had to pull over to the side of the road because we could hardly see. WeContinue reading “After the Storm”

Brand New Mercies

The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. Lamentations 3:22-23 This morning, I woke up with Lamentations 3:22-23 on my heart. As I lay in bed, the light piercing through my window reminded me that today is a newContinue reading “Brand New Mercies”

The Power of Community

I will be the first to admit. Sometimes, I do NOT like people. They are messy and chaotic. They can be fickle and wishy-washy. They can even be too much at times. Honestly, the older I get, the more I’ve come to enjoy my own company and have become quite selective about who I giveContinue reading “The Power of Community”
