    7 Ways to Set Yourself Up For Rest

    February 2, 2023

    Taking the time to rest during your week is so important. The Bible speaks on this in so many places and it is so important to God. He established a special day of rest to remind us just how important it is to Him. But if you’re like me, applying yourself to actually rest can be difficult. My mind is constantly going, there are things that I see that need cleaning, and so many responsibilities are just never done. So how can I find time to rest? The concept of rest is such a mental thing. If you don’t set…

    How I Prepare My Home for the Weekend

    January 5, 2023

    When I first got married I knew that I wanted to set a solid foundation for our weekends. That is when my husband was home from work, we would often entertain guests, and it was a time of rest for us. And I wanted our weekends to be as organized and stress free as possible. Every Friday is my prep day and the day that I reset my home and heart so that my family and I can have a nice, peaceful weekend and Shabbat. Here are the things that I like to do each Friday to reset my home…

    Don’t Settle: A Believer’s Take on Halloween

    October 30, 2022

    We tell each other, “Don’t settle.” We mean, “Don’t settle for less than what you want and deserve.”   Stand firm on what’s important to you.   Hold out for your truest desires.   Wait for God’s best for you.   It seems a lot of us have developed a stubbornness on that front that is necessary to keep from bending. However, we’ve learned not to settle or bend on ‘our own’ values – what’s important ‘to us.” What’s sad is that we’ve given ourselves permission in many cases to “settle” in regards to God’s’ values – what’s important to…

    Dedication Boot Camp Book Review

    October 6, 2022

    I always love a good faith-based book or Bible study. But there are so many that are on the marked today that are just full of fluff or only about surface-level biblical themes. Dedication Boot Camp: Biblical Tactics for Winning This Spiritual War is not that way. This ten chapter study will equip you with all that you need to fight the war that we are in as God’s people. There is so much evil in the world that is fighting for our attention. And we, as God’s children, need to prepare our minds, hearts, and spirits to defend ourselves…

    Dealing with Death and Grief as a Christian

    May 26, 2022

    Death is a difficult thing to experience. Even as a Christian, it’s difficult. For some reason, I think we have high expectations that we aren’t supposed to mourn or cry when it comes to death because we’re Christians. But we need to remember that while death holds no power over us, it’s still a painful reminder that this is not how we were meant to live life. We were never meant to experience death but because of sin we do.  It also becomes complicated depending on the relationship you had with the deceased and the manner of their passing. For…

    A Letter to the Tired Mama

    May 5, 2022

    Dear tired mama, No matter how many years you’ve been doing this or how many little ones you have, the tired feeling will come. I’ve only been a mama for six months and have already seen my share of struggles, giggles, and tiredness. In the back of our minds we wish we could put it off, take a break, and make it stop. But we can’t. If we stop doing all the things, life will truly stop. There are little ones who count on you, a home that needs your care, and a hundred tasks that need to be accomplished…
