• Finding Satisfaction

    Lately, I have noticed a restlessness or unsettling in my soul that I know was there before, but I never paid heed to. It is this sense of needing or wanting something but not knowing precisely what it is. I think it’s items to possess or people I love having something change for the better, but that’s not really what it is. Yet I have allowed it to drive me as I search restlessly for the satisfaction my soul desires. What is it in my soul that is ever seeking but never finding what it craves? Is it sin or…

  • Finding Purpose And Meaning In Life

    Every person who ever lives asks, “What is my purpose and why am I here?” The average Christian is taught to find meaning and purpose through a life of loving and serving Christ. But what if you aren’t the average Christian who was brought up in a loving home and came to Christ through the care and admonition of a Christian parent? What if your life was fraught with pain, betrayal, and hatred? How do you find meaning in value in a life that was broken beyond repair? As a new Christian, I sought my purpose by leaning heavily on…

  • The Book Of Habbukuk

    I have been studying the book of Habakkuk lately and it has really given me some beautiful insight. The reason I love this book is that it is still so relevant today. God didn’t need to continue to write down the history of His people because history just keeps repeating itself. Nations rise and fall, and people continue to whore themselves out to many other gods. They then get corrected and fall back into line with God’s plan for them, only to be led astray once more. Everything we need to know about the history of mankind is in the…

  • There Is Grace In Your Idolatry

    Worship is one of the most important parts of who we are. God created us to worship Him, and it is our highest calling. However, when a person refuses to worship the God that created them, they become idolators. Being an idolator doesn’t need to be put into categories of good or bad, wrong or right. Idolatry should instead be looked at through the lens of unnatural and unhealthy. When a person idolizes things or people instead of God, they are putting themselves into a harmful position, by opening up doorways to the occult giving a foothold to the devil.…

  • Your Call & Commission For God’s Kingdom

    Many people wonder what call God has on their lives. What does God want them to do? Some people already feel certain they are called to be pastors or leaders, servants or mothers. Everyone who is a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ has been called, but what exactly have they been called to do? Let’s start first by understanding what a call from God is. Is it hearing that still small voice of God actually calling you into a line of work? Is it a feeling or pull in a certain direction? When we look to God’s Word, here…

  • The Wages Of Sin

    I have struggled with the concept of sin for a very long time. You see, when I heard sin I hear “evil” and “bad”. I have not been able to separate being evil or bad from being a sinner. I could not understand the true concept of sin and it has held me back from God for a long time. When I was a child, my family and the other occult members that abused me, used the Bible and God’s Word against me. So words like sin and hell were reserved for times when I was disobeying and were used…

  • How I Became A Dominating Wife

    I never wanted to be a dominating wife, but sometimes God leads you down one path in order to teach you along the journey. As a young woman growing up I began to experiment with intimate relationships with other women. I was tired of being “used and abused” by men and I firmly believed that if I was in a relationship with a woman I would never be hurt or abused. A woman would be compassionate and kind, and would never, never use me for sex. However, it didn’t take me long to discover that I was 100% wrong in…

  • Modesty: Emphasizing Your Inner Beauty

    Eight years ago when I came into a relationship with Jesus Christ I had no idea what modesty was. Honestly, I don’t know if I had ever even heard the word. At that time clothing was a way to “express myself” which mostly meant getting attention and feeling good about myself. I often didn’t care about comfort or proper fit if I felt that I looked good. I thought that if I showed off certain parts of my body I would get attention, and attention meant acceptance and love. However, all people are really only looking for the true love…

  • The Hope In Suffering

    I have always viewed suffering as a terrible thing, and have done everything in my power to escape it for as long as I can remember. Lately, I have to ask myself, why is suffering such a bad thing, something I have been so desperate to escape? According to Romans 5:3-5, suffering is actually a good thing, because it produces endurance, character, and hope. Hope is a confident expectation, not in what we can see, but what is unseen; that is in the coming of the Lord, the salvation we have in Him, and the eternal life we will receive…

  • All Things New

    Two years ago, in the midst of the despair in my suffering, Jesus spoke to me saying “I am making all things new”, and He gave me this verse: Behold, I am doing a new thing;     now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness     and rivers in the desert. Isaiah 43:19 I wanted to believe Him. I needed to believe Him, and I held on to that promise choosing to hope in something that looked utterly impossible. Yet as the days, weeks, and months passed by, I never saw a change…
