And I love you all so much, and it’s been awesome growing so more with this blog and with you...
Anonymous asked: What country do you live in?
Anonymous asked: You are a beautiful woman of God. It is beautiful to see a blog filled with the Lord. Because of Him we are alive and well. It is often that He is neglected in our day to day lives, but you have made it clear that you wont let this be the case in yours. Thank you for that. I pray that you never lose sight of Him and what He has planned for you. "All things are possible through Him who gives...

Family - cliché, but it’s so true, we have laughed, cried together and grown together so much this year.
Education - The grace of God has been so prevalent in...

Lessons from 2011 (5)
Start off your day thinking how the life you’re going to live that day is going to please God. Life is so much clearer and easier when we fix our eyes on God - suddenly you know how to act around people, you know how to handle things with wisdom, you’re at ease because you know you’re in the will of God and you’ve nothing to fear, and you start following in Jesus’...

Anonymous asked: I saw your post when you answered the question asked about how to overcome addiction to pornography, and I wanted to thank you. I've struggled with it myself, and your answer was the same as mine when I decided to leave that addiction behind. I still struggle with the temptation, but I always need to remember to rely and focus on Him, and deny myself. Thank you for reminding me at the very...

In life, God will take everything; the good, the bad, the unfortunate, the fortunate, and He will make it work together for your good. In the times where our lives look like they’re spinning horribly out of control, He is actually in control and He knows what He’s doing.
You intended to harm me, but God intended it all for good… - Genesis 15:20
Anonymous asked: I'm a Christian girl, when I was delievered I stopped liking girls for a while but then it came back and I dated my close friends sister but if I tell her it will break her because she actually looks up to me, I know I screwed up and everytime I try to stop thinking about it there is always something there to remind me of her, then it makes me want to go back.

Jesus Our Hope
For millions of people, the Christmas season means nothing more than parties, gifts, decorations, and time off work. For Christians, however, this time of year is a happy reminder of the hope we have because of Jesus Christ.
Before Jesus came, God seemed distant, hidden in the Holy of Holies in the temple, accessible only to the high priest. Worshipers wondered whether their sacrifices were...

"Christ in you...the Hope of glory"
The Virgin birth is more than just another Christmas story; it illustrates just how close God wants to get to you. In fact, He’s asking you the same question He asked Mary, ‘Are you willing to let me move in?’ Throughout scripture it’s always been His desire to get close to His people. He told the disciples, ‘…I am in you’ (John 14:20 NCV). Paul prayed,...

I'm learning that...
There is no such thing as “too much sacrifice” with God. If Christmas teaches us anything, it is that God’s love for us knows no bounds so our love for Him should in its response, be boundless. And I’m still growing and learning to let Jesus into every room of my heart and life - I’m taking down the “off-limits” signs and allowing Him to roam about freely,...
