The Gift of Sharing Treasure
It all started when the sweet little old lady next door decided to share with me one of her best kept secrets—a nearby laundry room for the residents in our area, much cheaper than any laundromat around. Although it wasn’t exactly a secret, I had no idea about it until she decided to share it…

The Gift of His Words
By the Word of the Lord, the heavens were made. (Psalm 33:6) Beloved. Valuable. Precious. Beautiful. Blessed. Free. Redeemed. These are the words God uses to describe those who love Him. Words are so powerful. Someone can use hateful words toward us at a very young age that will stay with us forever. Today I…

The Gift of What God Builds
There came a point in my life where I had to be torn down so I could be rebuilt. I came to understand that my life was meaningless and empty without the belief that I had pleased God and made Him proud. I had to come to a realization that I couldn’t honestly say I…

The Gift of God’s Grocery Store
God is the source of everything we need to nourish us, to survive. He is the source of our spiritual (as well as our physical) fruits. There’s something very important He needs, though, in order for us to receive our goods—He needs us to come to Him and ask for them. I love to be…

The Gift of His Temple
Your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God. You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body. (1 Corinthians 6:19-20) I believe God gave us this analogy so we could better understand the value He places on caring…

The Gift of Your Markings
My cat, Sassy, is full of unique markings. One of my favorites is the one right on the bottom of her little paw. One can be found on her ear and the roof of her mouth as well. These are just some of the markings that make Sassy who she is. You will know them…

The Gift: Sensitivity is Your Superpower
I can vividly remember being a little girl and my mom singing— On top of spaghetti all covered with cheese, I lost my poor meatball when somebody sneezed. I began to cry, and a look of pure confusion spread across my mother’s face. “Why are you crying?” She asked. “The poor meatball!” I cried. Sensitive…

The Gift of a Faith-Filled Morning
It all comes down to faith, doesn’t it? I wasn’t sure what God would have me write about, paint about that day, but I had faith He would show me. As I sat down that morning to read the last chapter of the book of Samuel, I soon realized faith was the very thing God…

The Gift of God’s Love
And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God and God in them. (1 John 4:16) The best advice I could probably ever give someone is to learn how to see people through the lens of Christ, through a “love-tinted glass”…
