Journaling is a valuable tool to deepen our relationship with God. Writing down our prayers and keeping a record of what God speaks to us and teaches us helps us understand what He is doing in our lives and in our current season. Journaling also helps us look back over our history with God to see how much we’ve grown in our relationship with Him over the years. Although I have always kept a record of my relationship with God, it was only last year that I began to practice what I call “heart-to-heart journaling.” What is Heart-To-Heart Journaling?

Waiting on the Lord isn’t always easy and it’s something I want to grow in. It definitely takes discipline to shut out all the noise and be still before Him. It’s no secret that we live in a world of distraction and a society focused on speed. Waiting on the Lord is all the more important in these times. Here are 5 benefits we receive from waiting on the Lord. 1. Soul Wholeness The Hebrew root word for wait is qavah which means “to bind together (perhaps by twisting)”. To wait is to intertwine. When we wait on the Lord, we are intertwining with Him, meaning that we begin to experience wholene ..read more

The Good Part: Lessons from Martha and Mary

One of my favorite passages of Scripture is in Luke chapter 10 when Jesus comes into the home of Martha. A Visit from Jesus Jesus often visited His friends Lazarus, Mary and Martha, and He even raised Lazarus from the dead. This family of siblings were dear to Him. The Story of Martha and Mary Luke 10:38-42 tells us, Now it happened as they went that He entered a certain village; and a certain woman named Martha welcomed Him into her house. And she had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus’ feet and heard His word. But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she app ..read more

The Importance of Preparation

I believe preparation is overlooked in our generation. Let’s be honest. Our generation is used to instant communication, microwaves and having everything fast. We want it quick and we want it now. We have fast food, fast shipping and overnight success through social media. But unlike our modern mindset, the Bible shows the importance of preparation as it relates to our life’s calling, and even every believer’s responsibility to prepare for the marriage of the Lamb, Jesus Christ. Esther’s Example of Preparation Esther’s story shows us a great example of preparation. The king had called all the ..read more

5 Truths That Will Change Your Life

Today I want to share 5 truths I’ve learned that have completely changed my life for the better. I believe they will do the same for you as well. 1. The Gospel isn’t about our future in Heaven One of the greatest truths I’ve ever learned is the reality that the gospel isn’t focused on our future in Heaven. Perhaps the most famous verse in the Bible is John 3:16, For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. The gospel is centered around the gift of eternal life through Christ. Romans 6:23 For the wage ..read more

We hear a lot about Jesus’ many great ministry works. His earthly ministry was flooded with miracles and many astonishing things, such as turning water into wine, raising the dead and healing all manner of diseases. However, what has always interested me about the life and ministry of Jesus was His lifestyle. Many people focus on the works of Jesus, but don’t mention His everyday lifestyle. We miss a profound destiny-shaping revelation when we neglect to study His patterns of living. What Was Jesus’ Lifestyle? Jesus’ lifestyle was to seek God’s will and do it. He summarized His heart on this ..read more

Recently, while reading Galatians chapter 3, the Holy Spirit began to unfold a revelation to me. This chapter contrasts the Law with faith, emphasizing that believers are justified by faith in Christ, not by works. The key verse that resonated with me was Galatians 3:13, which highlights how Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us. Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”) Christ took the punishment for our sins that we deserve, although He did no ..read more
