There is such a security in knowing what will happen in your life. To be in control of your everyday. Give yourself the opportunities you want. And be surrounded by the certain people you want.

In today’s culture, men are looked upon as weak beings. They are strongly viewed in a negative light. And while most men in today’s world are not the masculine Prince Charming that all of us girls look for, there are some men that still live up to this standard. These men stand for what’s right, treat women with respect, and follow God’s ways. They try their best to live a life of biblical manhood. I have written on the blog before about biblical womanhood and living out your femininity in a God-honoring way. But in this post I want to…

I don’t know about you, but I have a hard time at being slow to anger. Patience doesn’t come easy to me. And when someone does something that upsets me, I have a difficult time not getting angry.

What kind of testimony would I portray if I got raging mad when someone did something I didn’t like? And what kind of light would I shine when I can’t control my own temper? Acting upon anger…

We all have experienced fear. And how the world is right now, fear can be an emotion that most of us are feeling daily. As we live in this dark, sinful world we have witnessed and will continue to witness many things that have made us fear. And it’s very easy to become anxious when there is so much to be anxious about. But the Lord has commanded us not to fear! “Do not fear” is mentioned many times throughout the Scriptures. And it is something that we should take notice of, especially during these days. There are so many…

We all want to be satisfied. Each of us longs to feel fulfilled in some way. Whether you look for your fulfillment in social media or in your current relationship, you long to find satisfaction in someone or something.

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…
