"The Christian life can be explained only in terms of Jesus Christ, and if your life as a Christian can still be explained in terms of you —your personality, your willpower, your gift, your talent, your money, your courage, your scholarship, your dedication, your sacrifice, or your anything—then although you may have the Christian life, you are not yet living it." Ian Thomas I have to admit…I am speechless when it comes to this quote.  The heart conviction that accosted me wh

Angels filled the sky with light, proclaiming, “Glory to God in the highest,” announcing that the Prince of Peace had entered the world. Shepherds trembled and hurried to see

While a new calendar finds its way onto our desk, Scripture reminds us that our security is not found in a new season but in an unchanging God. Trusting God with the new year begins with acknowledging that He is sovereign over all things. Proverbs 16:9 tells us, “The heart of man plans his way,

“Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm.” Prov 13:20 Christmas is often described as a season of togetherness. We gather with family, reconnect with friends, and spend more time with the people around us. In the middle of all the lights, music, and celebrations, Proverbs 13:20 gives us a simple but powerful reminder: who we walk with matters. At its heart, Christmas celebrates Emmanuel— God with us . Jesus didn’t come to remain d

Welcome to the 12 Days of Christmas: Godly Girl Version! Day One: Godly Habits We celebrate Christmas to celebrate our Savior’s birth; to remember the day He gave up His place in Heaven to come as a wee babe here on our lowly earth because He loved us so dearly. During this Christmas season, we should reorient our gaze upon Him and praise Him for all He's done. One of the ways we can accomplish this is by cultivating Godly habits. 

“Make me to know your ways, O LORD; teach me your paths. Lead me in your truth and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; for you I wait all the day long.”  ~ Psalm 25:4-5 How many times have you sat there, gazing at your life, and asking God “where are you?”.

You aren’t doing anything. The E
