I love podcasts, and one of my favorites is Love Worth Finding. Pastor Rogers shared how joy is one of the most attractive qualities in a Christian

In just 3 verses of Psalm 143, you can clearly see a big change in David's perspective

I've been battling morning sickness a lot, so I've spent more time reading books. This week, I finished a book by Elisabeth Elliot entitled "Keep A Quiet Heart."

Why does God allow bad things to happen to good people? I’ve asked myself this question more than once in my lifetime.

As we chatted happily and listened to Finley’s coos, I looked down at the dashboard and was shocked to see that we were below empty on the gas tank! I guess I had just gotten lost in the conversation and completely forgotten about the need to fill the gas tank. I watched the blinking light flash, “0 miles till empty,” and my mind raced to all the different scenarios I could envision us in. 

Have you ever had a conversation with a friend, and as it continued and continued, you eventually realized they had quite a bit to talk about but no interest in listening? 

For years now, I’ve had my time with the Lord at night before I go to bed. But this year, I also started looking up the meanings of specific words in Greek or Hebrew.

I love gardening. Every step of the process brings me joy. It’s pruning season now, and I enjoy cutting the dead parts off each shrub or flower because I can envision how it will make it stronger and more fruitful during the blooming period this year.

As a mom to five little ones, I have those days when everything seems to go smoothly, and hearts stay happy throughout the day, and yes, those little hugs and kisses seem almost endless. But I also have the days where I am just trying to get ahead and make a dent...

It is hard to have a heart of contentment and thankfulness for the gifts God has blessed us with when we are surrounded with messages telling us we need more and would be happier if we had more.
