More than just blessings, I want God's presence. I do want another personal encounter. I have to be honest with myself. He has emotions like we do. He isn't just a concept. He wants to be sought out. I want to pursue Him. I don't know why He doesn't always choose to appear when we seek Him...

Lord, you bless me in so many ways. But You are the greatest blessing of them all. You are not aloof. Not just a concept. You are very real, a very present help. I long to encounter You again. I want to speak to you like Moses. To have the joy of being overwhelmed by your presence. I want this...

Let's start with Consumerism. Marketers know that women are more likely to buy stuff so they've convinced us that we need makeup products to be attractive to men (we don't) and that a "basic" wardrobe includes at least 30 different articles of clothing. I fell for this scam in my own life. I...

I see a lot of modern groups spreading distrust and hatred between men and women. On the men's side, I see pick-up artists, MGTOW (Men Going Their Own Way), and incels. On the women's side, of course we have feminism. The Bible says both genders were cursed after the first sin in the garden of...

Volunteering is very underrated. I think people understand it as a noble thing to do but don't realize that what you get out of it is way more than any effort you put in. When I started volunteering at the local pregnancy resource center, it introduced me to women who were like-minded and...

She's just so .... :rolleyes::rolleyes: So I have a theory that if a post involves reading past the title and more than one paragraph, many will not read it. My theory is that people see a title that grabs their attention and go to typing immediately without fully reading the first post in...

As I get older (turned 28 this week) Ive noticed some perks! 1) Ive become 1,000 percent more selective of who I give my energy to. I try to give my best to my husband, family, and quality friends. But Ive stopped sharing my life on Facebook at all because I love having privacy against those...

Please share a good memory from your childhood. It can be anything good: A type of candy they don't sell anymore... Your parents saying something good about you... Certain smells in the kitchen... Milestones. Times you felt God calling you. I'll go first. My great grandmother's place...

When we are online, those outside the faith are watching and assessing the merit of our faith and the Lord Jesus through what we post. Sometimes I wonder what they see. Are we joyful online? Or do we just love to complain? Did we become Christians only to get a sour face, disapprove of things...

North Carolina congress will meet today at 4pm EST to decide whether to override our governor's veto of the bill that would ban abortion at 13 weeks. Currently it's at 20 weeks. Please pray all the members would be there to vote and for the very real potential of an override to the governor on...

Titus 2:3-5 3 The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; 4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, 5 To be discreet, chaste, keepers at...

Spiritually or in other areas of life, how have you grown, improved, or matured?

What are some guidelines you use when deciding to buy something you don't really need?

Ephesians 3:17-19 17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; 19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be...

For me, it's rice and bread. Bread has gotten a lot of bad press. But Jesus liked bread so it can't be that bad. It's delicious and Im not giving it up. I have lost 22 pounds last year but I refused to eliminate any food group in the process.

What's an amusing headline you'll not likely see in the news? I think Ive got one: Feminists Agree: To be pro-woman, support stay-at-home-Moms.

I have never traveled outside of the U.S. But I would like to learn more about cultures around the world and also the views of non U.S natives have of U.S culture. I'd love to hear especially from believers from other nations. I have learned much of what I know from Youtube videos. But I...

The Bible actually says to speak evil of no one (Titus 3:2). This is actually pretty challenging either because we have a habit of "venting" and speaking evil of people to let out frustration or because other people around us do it and expect you to join them. Here's an example: insulting...

I wanted to become a prayer warrior so I had to face my fear of God not being there or not wanting to connect with me. Hebrews 11:6 says But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek...

Let's just dive in to some verses I found on grace and works. Grace: For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; - Titus 2:11-12 8 For...
