I recently finished reading Keep Your Love On by Danny Silk. It’s an amazing book if you haven’t read it yet! In the last part of the book, he used the phrase “learn to love” and it has stuck with me this week! There are so many areas in my life where I need to … Continue reading Enlarge My Heart

Compare to Others or Critique Yourself
I was reading through some Psalms the other day, and a specific verse in Psalm 128 jumped out at me. “Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine in the innermost parts of your house…” – Psalm 128:3a (AMP) It got me thinking... “Am I a fruitful vine in my home? What does that even … Continue reading Compare to Others or Critique Yourself

He is omnipresent … Continue reading God Doesn’t Miss A Thing

You filled your lungs with polluted unbelief, and then exhaled disobedience. We all did it, all of us doing what we felt … Continue reading Saved By Grace

I also love Pinterest. I go through seasons of pinning like crazy, followed by seasons of wishing that I could actually … Continue reading Homemade Valentines
Am I Convinced?
I received a timely email a couple weeks ago from FaithGateway (Devotionals Daily). In it was an excerpt from Lysa TerKeurst's Made to Crave devotional. She talked about doing things because you're loved, not doing things to get love. It was a total perspective shift for me, one that I'm still wrestling through. I don't have to do things … Continue reading Am I Convinced?
