A new post on my other blog! Worthy of His Call Photo by icon0.com on Pexels.com Do you struggle with idolizing what you think is the right thing versus looking to Jesus Himself to direct you on the right path? I would like to share with you today some lies versus truth that I wrote down last year in an attempt allow God to set me free from perfectionism. Lie #1: Iam a victim of fear The truth is, we have no reason to fear. You have God Himself on your side! Don’t live in fear, live in love. Be persistent about living in love.

Elizabeth’s Child

Worthy of His Call Photo by Pixabay on Pexels.com Here is a story told from Elizabeth’s perspective, the woman in the Bible who gave birth to John the Baptist. I hope you enjoy it and that it blesses you. I stood in the doorway, watching Zechariah on his knees praying to God. My heart fluttered within my chest. He was a good man. He prayed often for a child, but I thought for certain our days to give birth were over. I was barren, and that was that. I hated it. I wanted a child so badly. I had begged to God for eighteen years to give me a child, but he did not seem to hear my prayers. The peo ..read more

How To Overcome Obsessive Thoughts

Worthy of His Call Photo by Luis Quintero on Pexels.com Is Jesus your everything? He seriously should be. He is not just a crutch to rely on, but He is your wheelchair to glide on. He isn’t something to look to only in a dire situation, He is the tight rope to walk on in every situation, never looking to the right or to the left. Fix your eyes on Him as Peter did walking on the water, ignoring the waves about Him. “He said,’Come.’So Peter got out of the boat andwalked on the water and came to Jesus.But when he saw the wind,he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out,’Lord, save me.’Jesu ..read more

His Eyes of Love

Have you ever longed to feel a touch from God? Just one touch? Or have you been doubting God’s love for you lately? Do you feel you’ve had too many failures to be able to truly be loved by Him again in the deep way you’re craving for? Well, my dear friends, you are not alone. These past few weeks I have felt like a total failure. I wasn’t trusting God. And so the devil was ruling my life in many ways. I wasn’t believing He was enough. I wasn’t believing He was the happiest and safest and most wonderful place to be. I wasn’t totally submitting to Him completely, so I wasn’t able to cooperate w ..read more

Speaking the Truth In Love

Photo by RODNAE Productions on Pexels.com My last post was on the topic of gentleness. Gentleness can easily be misinterpreted as tolerating people’s beliefs to the point of not pointing out their error. Thus, the Lord led me to write this post to explain that while we are in dire need of gentleness in our day and age, we are also in dire need of speaking the truth in power and love and conviction from the Holy Spirit. People seem to go to one extreme or another: being too sensitive to hurting a person’s feelings so they don’t speak truth, or yelling truth hatefully in someone’s face. Both of ..read more

Faith Over Fear, part 9: A Gentle Answer Turns Away Wrath

I have been going through a series about the fruits of the Holy Spirit and how they counteract fear in our lives. So far, I have done: Be filled with the Spirit, love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, and faithfulness. This second-to-last post in the series is about one of my favorite fruits: gentleness. What does it mean to be gentle? Does it mean simply politeness, or something more? Where has gentleness gone in this day and age of social media, “say it like you mean it” angst, and hate speech? Has our culture lost the art of gentleness? While there is a place for speaking truth firmly and bo ..read more

Faith Over Fear, Part 8: Be Faithful in the Little Things

Photo by Andrea Piacquadio on Pexels.com There is such a lack of faithfulness in today’s culture. So many are content with living below average lives, just working the bare minimum to pay the bills, just studying the bare minimum to pass the class. So little motivation for living a thriving, healthy lifestyle. I can’t say I’m totally exempt from this attitude. I feel so dragged down by college schoolwork, so I overly distract myself with social media, YouTube, and other various things, leaving schoolwork in the backburner and letting ugly procrastination rule my life. Ouch. Lord, help me. The ..read more
