The Gift of an Old Thing
That old air conditioner at our old building was giving out. All the nurses and aides had to commute to our sister building—the new building. I stood next to the young girl and helped buckle our patients onto the van for our commute. I don’t like to compare myself to others, but there I found…

The Gift of Rest
Come to me, and I will give you rest. (Matthew 11:28) God had been trying to reach me lately, but I ignored His calls. Between work, day to day chores, errands, church, small group activities, my blog, social media—I’ve been putting a couple of very important things on the back burner: God and rest. The…

The Gift of True Love: Letting Go of the Fairytail
It’s beautiful, isn’t it? This picture is like something straight out of a fairytale. As I made my way around this beautiful garden, I began to think about how amazing it would be to share this with someone. These desires inspired me to write about something that is very much everything— true love. True love…

The Gift of Color
My all time favorite question to ask someone has always been “What’s your favorite color?” Someone’s favorite color says so much about them. I have the hardest time choosing just one, and I used to really dislike that about myself. I’ve learned to love and accept that little quirk. Maybe, it’s the artist in me.…

The Gift of a Childlike Faith
Once upon a time there was a little girl. She was absolutely terrified of bad weather—thunder, lightening, and especially tornados. One spring night, tornado warnings flooded the television as a storm raged outside the windows of her home. In the midst of the storm, the little girl fell asleep. When she woke up, she was…

The Gift of Rain
In the midst of all the storms lately, I have been thinking about the gift of rain. Without rain, the flower will never grow. Without rain, we cannot truly appreciate sunshine. Without rain, we cannot have the rainbow. Hardships, like rain, serve a purpose—without experiencing them, we will not learn how to overcome them. Without…

The Gift of Prayer: Life Lessons From a Ladybug
The sermon at church today was one I won’t ever forget. Our pastor preached on a topic very near and dear to my heart, as it should be to anyone who desires a relationship with God. He talked about prayer. There were three key instructions he gave us today related to prayer. The first one…

The Gift of God’s Guidance
There is no rock like our God. (1 Samuel 2:2) I took a long walk yesterday to one of my favorite hiding places. I picked up several rocks that caught my eye and found a place to stack them. A cairn is a set of stones set up as a marker, monument, or memorial of…

The Gift of Dreams
“Let her sleep, for when she wakes, she will move mountains.” unknown It all started with my dreams. I don’t mean my faith, as I was raised to be a Christian, but my journey towards my relationship with Christ. This is crucial, because what so many people don’t realize, is true Christianity isn’t about religion;…

The Gift of Inspiration
As I brainstormed for blog ideas the other day, I couldn’t think of any. Then, the moment I got settled into my bathtub, ideas began to flood my brain. Inspiration is one of many ways God communicates with you. The devil loves to hijack this communication. Think of inspiration like the issues you have with…
