To the Christian Who Doesn’t Read Their Bible
I know you feel like the only one. I assume you are a 'bad Christian'. Satan is feeding your a host of lies and you are accepting them. You hate to admit it but you don't read your Bible.

Is It Really Okay?
Recently with all of the chaos in the world I have seen many social media influencers speak out on the top of just being. They have said that it is okay to just grieve and sit with the chaos. Many have made a major point to encourage followers to not attempt to use this time at home intentionally. Their point is that the ‘trauma’ and stress is enough and we shouldn’t pressure ourselves to be productive. We should instead eat all the ice cream our tummy needs and enjoy as much Netflix as we can binge. It is a ‘you do you’, ‘self-care’ driven rhetoric that has me feeling very…

Render a New Song
What sin have you ignored, justified, or hidden? The time is NOW to bring it to the Light. No more 'I am sorry, I won't do it again' and then choosing that sin again when temptation feels crushing.

What’s the Word?
Two years ago I decided to pray the week from Christmas to New Year’s Day to see what word the Lord would give me. Two years ago my word was “rest” it was a year I needed to recover and press into the Lord. I didn’t feel to many grand feelings from considering that word but it was a blessed reminder when I started to get angsty.

No Hiding, Be Hidden
“Don’t look at me, mama!” This is my toddler’s new favorite phase. He says it when he has made a poor choice or is being sneaky. As my little stinker lay under a chair hiding from his hand washing, I couldn’t help but think about how I do this. We ALL do this.
