“but where sin abounded, grace abounded much more” - romans 5:20 - 

no matter how far you have gone or how many times you have messed up, the grace of God is greater and bigger than any sin you could ever commit. He is always faithful to forgive those who will repent and turn to Him. Do not let shame or guilt keep you from experiencing the forgiveness and freedom found in Christ.

I need you everyday, God. May I never forget how desperately I need you. Thank you for your compassion and mercy. Thank you for being quick to forgive when I fall short and sin, over and over again. Thank you for not giving up on me. Keep me near to you. Keep my mind focused on You and the things of God. In Jesus Name, Amen.

something that’s been on my heart . . .

My, oh my, does this world just seem to be getting crazier each and every day? It seems like every time I turn around, there’s something new. Whether it’s record-breaking death rates due to COVID, racial injustice, warnings of earthquakes, job losses and financial strains, or any of the other hundreds of things that are going on right now, it just seems like everything is falling apart. And it is. This world is temporary. Death will come. Money will fade. Things will continue to spiral downward. But God. Two of the most important, life-altering words in the Bible. But. God. He is above it all. He sees the end from the beginning. He holds life and death in the palm of His hand. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. When things change day by day or even hour by hour, it seems, He is constant and sure. He is the solid rock on which we stand. He is unshakeable, immovable. And He offers that same peace and stability to those who trust in HIm. Thank you Lord that we do not have to navigate these circumstances alone. Thank you Lord for your word that we can hold onto, for your promises that were true thousands of years ago when they were written, that are still true today, and will remain true throughout eternity. Lord, I confess that I have allowed fear to creep into my heart. I have focused my attention on the circumstances of this world rather than on you. Forgive me for that, Jesus. Pull me back into your presence, keep my mind stayed on you, for you promise to fill those who do with your perfect peace. And that is what I need right now, Lord. Peace. Your peace. Peace that surpasses all understanding. Replace my fear with faith. You are my solid rock and my firm foundation, Lord. I trust in you. Heal my unbelief. Lead me in your ways. Fill my mind and my heart with your truth. Strengthen me by your spirit. Help me to be a light, Jesus, in this world. Help me to spread light and peace where you are not known, that people may come into relationship with you, the author of peace. And Lord, help me. As I walk through this life, may my eyes remain focused on you. Give me what I need to run the race that you have set before me, that I might finish strong, being counted a victor and conqueror in Christ. Amen. 

“The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer;

My God, my strength, in whom I will trust;

My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.”

- Psalm 18:2 NKJV

Amen! Thankful  for our God who longs to hear our voice. He craves that intimacy and fellowship with us. Thank you Lord, for your goodness and compassion upon us! 

"Don't ever hesitate to take to God whatever is on your heart. He already knows it anyway, but He doesn't want you to bear its pain or celebrate its joy alone.

—Billy Graham

“And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.” - John 1:14

Sometimes I get caught up in wishing I was born at a different time, to live when Jesus lived, to have walked with Him, to have beheld His glory and power firsthand as John mentions here. But then . . . then I am reminded of the awesome and amazing promise that I will one day see the risen, fully glorified Jesus face to face. I will gaze upon His face that shines brighter than the sun. I will hear Him speak. To address me by name and hear those words “well done, good and faithful servant.” And I will touch Him. Touch the scars on His hands and feet, the lasting reminder of His sacrifice, of His unfailing love that runs far deeper than I could ever comprehend. What a glorious day that will be.

a little encouragement . . .

In this time of social distancing and quarantine, it can be so easy to feel alone and isolated; however, we need to remember that the LORD is with us. While it may seem like we are alone in our homes, in our rooms, we can be encouraged by the fact that Jesus Christ is there with us. He sees us. He hears us. He knows our every thought, worry, dream, etc. Set your eyes upon Him. Place your hope and trust in Him. Allow His peace to permeate your spirit. Spend time in His presence. Allow Him to fill you with His truth and comfort you with His love. As He promises in His word: 

“Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’”

Isaiah 41:10 NKJV ✨
