"He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end." Ecclesiastes 3:11
Originally written in 2019. “Boyfriend” is now “Husband.” My boyfriend and I have been going through The Encounter TV series. (It is a show where people encounter Jesus. A great series that I highly recommend). I was judgmental about one episode saying, “That’s it? No repentance? Just forgiveness with a simple, ‘I’m sorry Jesus’???” I … Continue reading When It’s Your Story, You’re Grateful For The Mercy
After much struggle, I gave up caffeinated coffee January 1st of this year. In fact, I gave up all caffeine (you can read more about my history with coffee in Part 1). I know I am touching on a sensitive topic here and many Christians will not agree with me. I used to be one … Continue reading The Struggle Is Real, But So Is My God: Laying Down Coffee At The Foot Of The Cross Part 2
I never thought I would be writing this post…ever. But, here we are. And God has brought me to this place. I have had a long journey with coffee and caffeine. I have always loved the flavor of coffee and coffee flavored things, like coffee ice cream, coffee yogurt, and coffee candy. Even as a … Continue reading From Coffee Addict To Caffeine Free: Laying Down Coffee At The Foot of The Cross Part 1

You would never let them drive you the short distance to the grocery store, no matter how badly they wanted to drive. You would never hand them the keys to your car and say, “Go ahead, … Continue reading Letting Children Drive: The Transgender Tragedy Part 1
I have a theory about relationship. I believe that as you fall deeply, madly, and truly in love with Jesus, as you chase after Him as hard and as fast as you can with every fiber in your being, He brings someone (who is matched perfectly by the way) alongside you to run your race … Continue reading Romance With Jesus Part 2: The Key To A Successful Marriage Relationship
Do you ever just sit with Jesus? Draw near to Him and enjoy His presence? Do you ever let His love and very Being fill your heart and mind? Do you love and desire Jesus with the love and eager anticipation young lovers do? Does your heart and soul yearn for Him? Do you even … Continue reading Romance With Jesus Part 1: Have You Ever Heard Of Such A Thing?
I have always loved the story of the Sinful Woman in Luke 7. In many ways, I have identified with her and understood the great love she had for Jesus because of the forgiveness He freely offered her. She who has been forgiven much, loves much. As I read the story this morning, I noticed … Continue reading Uninvited & Unashamed
After the Fourth of July weekend I saw several photos pop up on my feed of bikini clad Christian women. After the first few I thought, “This isn’t right.

As a follower of Jesus Christ, I feel convicted not only to abstain from Halloween, but to pray against it. It is a satanic holiday and wickedness is exalted. You can try to justify it up, down, and sideways, but there really is no justification for participation. Even if you don’t think you celebrate Halloween … Continue reading Holiness & Halloween
