There have been so many times when I just didn’t have words to pray. That is when I love to turn the Scripture so I can pray God’s Word back to Him. And I love praying Scripture any time I am anointing my home or family. If you’re lost on what to say, where to even begin with anointing, or what verses are best for praying over your home I completely understand. I was in the same place a little over two years ago. But I want to encourage you to just start. Grab some oil (olive oil out of…
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…
So I’m pretty sure we all have realized the growing cost of groceries and just living in general. Sometimes it may feel hard to keep your head above water in the economy today. I completely understand. Around a year ago I was getting tired of seeing our grocery bill each week. It was almost always going over the budget we had set which didn’t make sense to me. For the most part I cook everything from scratch. We rarely buy pre-made or packaged foods. I try to buy groceries as healthy as I can but not in excess. (We all…
We’ve all been there, feeling the frustration of taking care of our homes. If you’ve been a homemaker and mother for any amount of time you have more than like experienced this. It’s easy to fall into anger, exhaustion, and complaining when you are always cleaning, preparing, and homemaking over and over again. It feels like it never stops and that gets frustrating. But I want to encourage you in your homemaking and tell you that you don’t have to live with this mindset. Homemaking doesn’t have to be frustrating. We are serving our families which is a beautiful thing.…
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…
