We need each other. In 1 Thessalonians, Paul writes instructions on how to lift each other up. Notice that his instructions include both encouragement and admonishment. We should always be looking to see how we can help each other become more like Christ and live well in whatever journey we are on. It is encouraging…

Today’s tip was to be consistent. In my mind, this is like what the Bible says when it says to be steadfast. Jesus has given us victory. We need to be steadfast. 1 Corinthians 15:57-58 “57 But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 58 Therefore, my beloved…

Do you need discernment? Do you need help in daily living? Get in the Word!! Look at what Hebrews says about God’s Word. Hebrews 4:12 12 For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning…

Looking forward to a new year, I like to make goals, not resolutions. Resolutions, as we know, are typically done by end of January. Goals allow us a year to accomplish, pressing on in the messy journey toward them. I like this depiction of the journey to success or goals. I was reminded of Paul’s…

Looking back on 2025, I was thinking of what Scriptures stood out. There are so many that it is hard to choose. I decided to narrow it down to two verses for sake of space. Habakkuk 3:17-19 Habakkuk Rejoices in the Lord 17  Though the fig tree should not blossom, nor fruit be on the…

Merry Christmas! Our Savior came for us! Luke 2 2 And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed. 2 (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.) 3 And all went to be taxed, every one into…

Today and tomorrow we will simply be reading the Christmas story from Luke 1 and Luke 2. Remember – He came for you. Luke 1 1 Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us, 2 Even as they delivered them…

Jesus came to take our punishment and our relationship with God would be restored. That truth is astounding enough. Yet, in Psalms, we learn that God also satisfies us, He fills our hungry souls. I don’t know about you, but walking the path of life, specifically with chronic illness, I am often “dry” in my…

As we concentrate on the Word of God, it made me think of Jesus, the Word. The Word who was with God and was God. He is life and light. He shines in darkness. Jesus. We celebrate Him this week, but don’t forget that He is not just the babe in a manger. He is…
