Christian Friends
“As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.” — Proverbs 27:17 God designed us for relationships. From the beginning, He said it was not good for us to be alone (Genesis 2:18). One of the most profound ways God works in our lives is through our relationships with others, especially with other believers. Christian…

The Soul
The greatest possession we have is our soul. Jesus says, “For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?” (Matthew 16:26). Our soul is worth more than the whole world and everything in it. Jesus warns…

Go Your Own Way
Abraham Lincoln once said, “Freedom is the last, best hope of earth.” Of course, he was referring to the struggle of the enslaved people to be free. This principle of freedom is one that all people deserve. It was what our founding fathers were looking for when they broke away from the English monarchy. It…

Careless Whisper
Have you ever been entrusted with information or knowledge that you could not wait to tell to someone else? It may be good news, such as an upcoming birth, wedding, or new job opportunity. Some information may be given to you in confidence, and you tell someone, breaking that private confidence. Some things are shared…

The Long And Winding Road
Moses wrote in the Psalms, “The days of our lives are seventy years; And if by reason of strength they are eighty years, Yet their boast is only labor and sorrow; For it is soon cut off, and we fly away” (Psalm 90:10). Moses himself lived longer than this. Still, he was the exception, not…

I’m a Grandma
I’m a grandma. I have been for the last seven months. It still surprises me and excites me. I didn’t know how much joy a new little one would bring into our lives. I didn’t know how just the thought of her would bring a great big smile to my face. I didn’t know I…

The Yoke of Bondage
“Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.” Galatians 5:1 The gospel of Jesus Christ, the good news of His death, burial, and resurrection, has the power to free all people from their sins (Romans 1:16). The guilt and…

Freedom
Freedom, family, food, and fireworks are how I would describe the 4th of July holiday. It’s a holiday we celebrate because it’s the day way back in 1776 that our Declaration of Independence was signed; a day when we, as a nation, declared our freedom. It was a great day in our nation; a day…

Moving Past Regret
Regret: a feeling of sadness about something sad or wrong, or about a mistake that you have made, and a wish that it could have been different and better. There is definitely some things that I have done in my past that I regret. I regret doing those actions. I regret saying what I said.…

Father’s Girl
I wrote and posted this to Facebook 10 years ago. I didn’t know that almost 2 years after I wrote it that my dad would no longer be a physical part of my life. The lessons he taught, the love that he gave, and all the memories are held so dear. I am forever thankful…
