In the book of Mark, we are told of a beautiful story of Yeshua (Jesus) and some little children. “And they were bringing children to him that he might touch them, and the disciples rebuked them. But when Jesus saw it, he was indignant and said to them, ‘Let the children come to me; do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God. Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.’ And he took them in his arms and blessed them, laying his hands on…

At the beginning of last year, I decided to go on a music fast for the whole month of January. “What is a music fast?” you may be wondering. Well, for me, I decided to only listen to Christian/worship music for one month. I chose to turn on music that was uplifting to the Lord instead of any other kind of music. Is all music bad?

Reading has always been a passion of mine since I was little. And still today, reading is one of my favorite things to do. There is so much to gain by reading. Many books hold great truth and wisdom. You can learn so many new things just by reading a couple of pages. Christian books are my favorite books to read because they help to grow my faith. Whether it’s a biography or a type of information book, faith-filled books are great to add to your daily life. They tell you of other believers’ journeys and help you dig deeper…

Hanukkah, or the Feast of Lights, is a reflection of our Savior. As He walked on this earth, He healed the sick, forgave the sinners, and taught on His Father’s commands.

Although this feast is not a required one, it is still a great time to reflect on our Savior. And I want to look at how this feast can grow our own faith. We are called to be lights…

As a young girl you probably watched or read the fairytale stories of how the prince charming sacrificed all to save the lovely princess. These stories that were planted in our minds as young girls stay with us today. We are still wondering if a fairytale romance actually exists. The story of the princess and her prince charming is just that—a story. A fairytale romance between a boy and a girl does not perfectly exists. I know that there are some couples who come very close. But they are still not perfect. But there is a fairytale romance that does…

You read in the Scriptures about great men that followed God and His Word. And you hear stories about amazing men of history who lived boldly for the Lord. But do godly guys still exist today?

I think everyone goes through a season of loneliness at some point in their life. Every girl will experience the loneliness of being single. And as a Christian, you may experience a time when it feels as if you are the only one on earth living for the Lord. Whatever the lonely season is that you may be in, know that it is only that—a season. But loneliness actually doesn’t exist if you are a believer in the living God. There are so many verses that tell us that we are not alone. No matter when or where we feel…
