Over the past few years I have started to learn how to recognize spiritual warfare and ways to combat the schemes of the enemy. I feel like many of us often forget how the enemy works. We don’t realize the power he possess and the ways he will use it against us. And I think we are often naive because we are not taught how much the spiritual can affect our physical. “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces…

There have been times when I just didn’t know what to pray. Some times things were just so rough around me and life seemed to keep throwing arrows my way. Other times I just don’t know what to pray. It’s not that I’m confused or struggling. I just don’t have words. This is often when my faith life and relationship with the Lord seems to be in a dry season. Honestly these times can be very hard places to be. I, at least, end up feeling guilty. Deep down I try hard but I feel like I am failing as…

Winter is hard when you have toddlers in your home. And it can be so easy to just turn the tv on to occupy them when it’s too cold to get outside. I am so guilty of this myself. But I have really tried to reduce our screen time this winter. Sometimes that means getting creative. And sometimes that means I put a little extra work on myself. I do…

It’s almost the new year and this is the time people think about setting goals. I know that not everyone does this. But it is a popular thing to do at the turn of the year. And I want to give you some help and maybe a little bit of conviction when you are thinking about the goals you are setting for the new year. If you are a daughter of God your goals should reflect holiness and how you can be actively walking in His ways. And if we are being honest many of the goals we tend to…

When you become a wife your prioritizes should change from what they once were. And when you become a mom they change again. Then when you have another child and another child and so on, again your prioritizes will need to change so that you can get everything in order. That is life. You must continually be reworking things and reorganizing your time so that you can be the best version of yourself and get your responsibilities done in a smooth manner. I have been a wife for over four years now. It took me a while to figure out…

Having a heart of thankfulness is a wonderful quality to have. And we should be teaching our children to be thankful from an early age. But how can you start that? How can you teach your little ones to be thankful to others and to God? Well there are a few things that I have been doing from day one with our kids that have helped them be thankful for so much. I am only three years into motherhood so I sometimes feel like I don’t have too much wisdom to share. But the years that I have learned and…

Our homes are where the majority of us spend most of our time. It is where we raise our little ones, where our husbands come home from their work, and where we decide what type of atmosphere we will establish. Like everything else in life we can decide to establish one of two atmospheres in our homes. We can bring in confusion, stress, and strife. Or we can welcome peace, kindness, and righteousness. Which do you think is from the Lord? 1 Corinthians 14:33 says, “For God is not a God of confusion but of peace.” Our God does not want His people to be in confusion. He doesn’t…
