Our King
May God be our strength, when it is growing dim May in our weakest, we choose to go to Him May God be our courage, when in sets fear May in our worry, we remember, that He is there May God be our leader, when we don’t know which way to turn May in His…

Enjoy the day
Though it is good to look to the future, may we learn to live in the present. It is all too easy to be too consumed with trying to plan the future completely. Sometimes in that planning, we forget the day in which we are in. Honestly, the best planning is subject to change. The…

Choose to be kind
It is hard to have compassion towards people that seem to lack it. It is hard to pray for those that seem so undeserving. It is hard to turn our cheek and not retaliate when someone is being unkind. Though that’s exactly what we have been called to do. Jesus Himself still showed kindness, grace,…

Somewhere along the line, I inherited it. I noticed today that there was a decent sized hole in it. The yarn not…

In Him, I find my peace
I don’t always know God’s plan or His reasons. Though I know that He is faithful, and I can find peace in that. I can choose to trust Him, in my I don’t know why’s. When my husband and I lost our unborn baby this past year, it was devastating. Then we were told it…

Sing praises to God
I have learned that many of us praise God with music, differently. Some praise Him in quiet hymns. Some praise Him loudly with modern music. Our oldest son for instance, some of His Christian music is rap. Although not what we would choose for us, we have no problem with him listening to it. If…
