    Studies and Devotionals to Strengthen Your Quiet Time

    June 4, 2021

    One of my favorite times is when I’m able to have my quiet time with the Lord. I love to read His Word and study it out farther.

Without studying and learning new promises, laws, and commands, I will not get to know my God better. But studying His Word daily helps me to grow more in my special relationship with Him. I love to look up videos, listen to podcasts, and read…

    Why You Should Take Time to Rest

    April 19, 2021

    We live in a world that is full of go, go, go. There is no room to stop and take time to ourselves.
