Giving it ALL to God with our expectations, sorrows, discomforts, and He will give you joy, peace (!), and understanding? We cannot begin to gain the magnitude of God’s greatness nor even the magnitude of His total and complete LOVE. Allow God to write you a love story; it’ll be one that is never-ending. Within […]
Justifying peace
What kind of pain does God feel when He has to exercise patience with us? To be alert to this awareness justifies why the Lord takes time to reach us as He teaches us. Understanding that the Lord’s painful process took place with and is associated with the death of Christ on the cross helps […]
Letting Peace Produce a Godly Harvest
After a couple days of practicing obedience to God, I find myself in a calmer place, both spiritually and naturally so. Every day living comes with a sense of self-awareness – in my interactions, engagements, conversations, thoughts, and even in my personal time with the Lord. My approach to things in efficiency and awareness comes […]
God IS SOVEREIGN
In this moment, I am reminded of a forceful prayer God placed on my tongue just a few months ago: “Lord, deal with them justly.” I prayed this with such utterance and strength of the Holy Spirit.

Prayer and Movement
Today’s devotion setting was eye opening in a manner that gave me insight about honoring the Lord, having understanding, and looking at things from His perspective.

Personal Day Yields Results
I didn’t do much today. But what I did do was of grand importance. Our plans can sometimes get derailed by what God sets in front of us. Today, God made rest a priority so that my body can obtain some rest from it’s weariness. No longer could I focus on the list I’d set […]
Rest and Recharge!
What a perfect day to rest and recharge! Today began in as really special way, with the peace of the Lord filling out home with beautiful songs of worship as my husband and I sang along. I felt like time just slowwwed dowwwn. It’s amazing, having the wherewithal in which to take notice of the […]
It felt like a Saturday
Cool, calm, the end of the week. A FREE day – no pressure and no plans. So we decided to take it easy, spend a little time focusing on ourselves and the needs of our home. Although time seemed to pass by so quickly, the day also seemed to move by with ease – slowly […]
Persistence: Working while it is day
Today it felt great to participate in actions within my home. I love taking part in making my home comfy, and today was perfect for marking things off my to do list to make a more perfect home. I enjoyed cleaning, organizing, finding old things, and looking for reasons to get rid of old unused […]
