The Gift of a Boat
I woke up the other morning with a worship song playing in my head—“Build a Boat” by Colton Dixon. “I will build a boat in the sand where they say it never rains. I will stand up in faith; I’ll do anything it takes. With your wind in my sails, your love never fails or…

The Gift of a God-Sized Void
How does happiness happen? This is the topic of discussion as of lately at my church. Happiness happens when we begin to see unhappiness differently.

The Gift of Your Name
I used to hate my name. When I was a little girl, I wished my name were Jessica. Why? Because it was popular, and I hated being different. As I grew older, I learned to not only tolerate my name but love it. I love being different; I love being unique. Maybe you have a…

The Gift of Knowing Him: Taking a Closer Look at Proverbs 31:25
She is clothed with strength and dignity, and she laughs without fear of the future. (Proverbs 31:25) I’ve been meditating on this scripture lately.
