Are you a worrywart? Do you find yourself worrying over every little thing? In this week’s Create in Me a Clean Heart Devotion, we are reminded that Yeshua (Jesus) commanded us not to worry. He said don’t do it. Don’t allow those “what ifs” to rent space in your head (this is where taking thoughts captive comes into play). Right. I’m a mother. How can I possibly not worry?? Matthew… Continue Reading
Another New Year, What’s New?
It’s hard to believe yet another year has flown by! My baby will be FIVE next month, my firstborn will be THIRTEEN…my head is spinning. There’s been many changes in the last year or so, mostly in the spiritual and emotional areas for me. Good ones, thankfully!

The kind that bring enrichment to the lives of those around us, not just to ourselves. Even with that realization, though, it can still be hard to step out and do something new when the destination is unclear. But that is where faith… Continue Reading
Coffee With the Enemy
We all have people in our lives who rub us the wrong way. Some have even gone as far as to plunge a long, sharp knife deep into our back. So what do you do when God says “be a blessing to your enemy”? You have a choice to obey – or not – just like with anything else. But when God is asking you to step out and be… Continue Reading
