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?

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...

It's been kind of a difficult journey to embrace a slower lifestyle. Slow living wasn't a thing any adult in my life aspired to growing up. In college, I tried to join two clubs and take seven classes. Then I had a mental breakdown. Then my husband asked me to stop working altogether. As...

I think of You and smile in moments where time slows and I soak in the sun. You are a good God who gives good things. Happy moments of gratitude and praise give me strength and joy. Your goodness saturates my life. And your counsel gives life. I love you God. You're my strength, my...

I called on the Lord for direction and He gave me a couple verses: Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you... ...Whosoever shall lose his life for my sake shall find it... What I'm not getting from the Lord is direction towards...

My in-laws are not low maintenance. They are needy and rather inconsiderate at times. But my husband has been clearly told by God to love them sacrificially for the time being. I feel the pull as well so I want to come alongside him and help. Can I open my heart and do loving actions to...

I'm always trying to make stuff happen, often running ahead of God. It feels like if I don't do it, then Ill be a useless do-nothing forever. Almost like Cain, I come up with what I want to do to serve God and not what He wants. I'm afraid He won't reveal anything for me to do. I'm afraid to...
