Isaiah 40:28-31: “Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tiredContinue reading “A Renewed Strength”

An honest prayer to God, when times seem uncertain.
This is a prayer I wrote in my journal recently. I am believing God to provide me with another job, and I am sure I am not the only one who has this prayer. I hope this prayer reminds you that you are not alone, and I hope it encourages you to trust in theContinue reading “An honest prayer to God, when times seem uncertain.”
Thinking before speaking
I think it’s safe to say we’ve all been there. We have all been frustrated with others and/or felt like we have been treated unfairly, and so out of our minds boiling with anger that we literally feel like we are going to explode. There have definitely been times when I have felt mistreated andContinue reading “Thinking before speaking”
Knowing God
So I have been thinking and praying a lot lately about what I hope for in my life, what my dreams are, what I feel God calling me to do to glorify him with my career (and in my life in general), how I can be a good daughter, sister, friend (and one day, IContinue reading “Knowing God”
What will you say?
What will you say to yourself when there is no one there to encourage you? What will you say when you feel all alone and want to give up on everything you are working so hard for? What will you say, when there is no one beside you? When you feel all alone, like noContinue reading “What will you say?”
Made in God’s Image
Be yourself. So cheesy and cliché to say, right? You probably feel like you hear someone say this to you every other day, and you hear it so often that you probably don’t even think about what it means at this point. But seriously, BE YOURSELF. Be proud of the person that God made youContinue reading “Made in God’s Image”
Scripture Reflection: Joshua 24:14-15
Joshua 24:14-15: “Now fear the Lord and serve him with all faithfulness. Throw away the gods your ancestors worshiped beyond the Euphrates River and in Egypt, and serve the Lord. But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors servedContinue reading “Scripture Reflection: Joshua 24:14-15”
Vision Boards – Never Stop Dreaming
So one of the places I currently work is a residential behavioral health facility. It is a 28-day treatment center for anyone struggling with substance abuse. There is a men’s unit and a women’s unit, and I usually work on the women’s unit (which I also did yesterday). Yesterday, for our group time, we hadContinue reading “Vision Boards – Never Stop Dreaming”
John 12:1-11 – Jesus Anointed at Bethany
John 12:3: “Then Mary took out a pint of pure nard, an expensive perfume; she poured it on Jesus’s feet and wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume”, (NIV). This week I have been thinking a lot about the story of Mary pouring perfume onContinue reading “John 12:1-11 – Jesus Anointed at Bethany”
You got out of bed today
Sometimes, there are days when getting out of bed seems like the most we can possibly do that entire day. It takes all the strength we can muster up within ourselves to not lay in bed all day and actually decide to get up and try to do something “productive”. I just want to sayContinue reading “You got out of bed today”
