What should you do when you feel anxious?
I Constantly Felt Anxious I spent several years climbing the corporate ladder. I would job hop to something that would pay more and I worked extremely hard to get raises and promotions. To me, a higher salary meant happiness, comfort, and peace. While I was happy to get a higher salary, which could lead to […]
Your enemy walks around like a prowling lion.
Your Enemy Prowls Around Like a Roaring Lion “Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.” 1 Peter 5: 8 (NIV) This was the first thing to pop into my head after the day I had yesterday. I had a full day planned. The best part was that […]
When You Are Weary, God wants to give you strength.
When You Are Weary I am a single mom. Sometimes, the weight of everything that I take on seems to be too much. A lot of it is self-inflicted as I often sign up to do things or I agree to do things before I think about how I’m going to fit them in with […]
Jehoshapat made a breakthrough prayer when surrounded by enemies.
Breakthrough Prayer Have you ever heard of breakthrough prayer?  I was recently introduced to that term, however, I was already aware of the concept. I just didn’t realize what it was. At the end of last year, I was going through something that was wearing me down emotionally and spiritually. I was at the point […]
I'm Tired. But God gifts rest to the weary. Let Him guide your steps and you will have the strength to go about your day.
Choosing to be Positive I missed posting Sunday. Had I done a normal “New Year’s Resolution”, I would have felt like a big failure. However, since God repeatedly reminds me that His mercies are renewed daily, I see each day as a new beginning. Just because I missed Sunday, doesn’t mean that I should miss […]
Talk to God first. This helps set the tone for the rest of your day.
Talk to God First What is the first thing you do in the morning? Do you grab your cell phone and scroll through the news, social media, or your calendar? Are you clicking on the television to see what’s happening on the news? Do you rush out of bed, wash up and head out? Or, […]
Keep Looking Forward - Look forward to the blessings
Keep Looking Forward So far this year, my posts have been about looking forward. This is an issue for me and I feel that God really put this on my heart. I spent far too much time regretting decisions made in the past that I can’t change. While it’s good to reflect on past decisions […]
How is your resolve? Are you still determined to make this year the best you've had?
How is your resolve? We’re now on the fifth day of the new year. How is your resolve? How have you done with any resolution(s) you made? My last post was about not only looking at a new year but looking at each new week and each new day. I started out strong and faltered […]
New year new me. New day new me should be our motto.
New Year New Me? We’ve all probably heard some form of the saying “New year, new me!” and we may have even said that ourselves. A lot of people start the new year with the best intentions, “I’m going to hit the gym”, “I’m going to eat more healthy”, “I’m leaving toxic relationships behind”, “I’m […]
My spiritual battle. Trust God to get you through your spiritual battle.
My Spiritual Battle I haven’t posted for a while because I’ve been going through a spiritual battle. In the past, when I felt oppressed by evil, I tended to take my focus inward. I stayed to myself and I wasted time by watching videos with no substance just to stop the internal noise. But not […]
