a christian’s take on the lgbtq+ community
a christian’s take on the lgbtq+ community
far too often i see christians hating on the lgbtq+ community. as christians, we are called to love our neighbors. the bible even goes further to say that we need to love not only those that are likeminded, but also those who may be different from us. just because this community may have different morals or values, that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t love them. the bible says that even the pagans love…

the education system: learning or memorization?
the education system: learning or memorization?
as i’m about a week from graduation, i’ve been thinking a lot about my education. the past 13 years of school have been full of learning, yet i somehow don’t remember even half of what i learned. sure, i’ve got the basics down. i remember a lot of my favorite classes and the classes i worked extra hard in. but those classes i dreaded everyday? i hardly remember what i studied.
i chalk this up to…

not my will, but His
not my will, but His
one of the struggles i have in my faith is my trust in the Lord. i have a tendency to try to take control of my situation, rather than surrender my life to him. the pastor of this church i’ve been visiting said that the way we can gain eternal life is by surrendering our lives to God–to put our full faith in him. it isn’t about our works or personal righteousness. righteousness is given, not…

the meaning of our good works
i think so often we have in our heads that these good works that we do for the Lord have to impact a large group of people. i want to encourage you in the fact that these good works don’t have to be grand or these “big” things. it can be praying with a friend. it can be buying a stranger coffee. it can be sharing a bible verse with a coworker. if you have the ability to preach to a large crowd:…

power of the tongue
there is so much power in our words. the way we speak to ourselves matters. if we continually speak negatively about ourselves, we will experience the effects of that. we have to speak life into ourselves and our lives.
Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits. – Proverbs 18:21
this verse shows the importance of the power of our tongue. we must be…

master of none
the idea of a master of none troubles me. we are told to be masters of ONE not masters of NONE. while i greatly support cultivating your gifts and using them for God’s glory, who’s to say that there’s just one thing?
while i understand the perspective that in order to be talented at something, we must devote our time to it. while this is true, if you have multiple interests, you can take time…

remaining hopeful
it has been a whole year since the pandemic first began. it feels surreal to imagine that the world hasn’t been “normal” for an entire year. through the constant changes of this year, i learned to put my hope in the Lord. it was a continual choice, and while i didn’t always do the best at it, it was my greatest effort. so how can we put our hope in God?

dealing with temptation
temptation is a common fault of human nature. when living in a world of sin amidst our own flesh, we are bound to give in to sin and temptation. yet, we are not to live in this lifestyle. we are to live with intentionality for the Lord.
No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are…
