The Gift of Freedom: Why Caged Birds Still Sing (Part II)
What’s caging you right now? Anxiety, depression, heartbreak, illness, poverty, maybe a failing marriage, or even children? Freedom is not a physical place or circumstance but rather a state of being we create. It’s part of nature to use our God-given gifts to bring ourselves and those around us joy. We as humans forget this…

The Gift of Joy: Finally Finding Freedom
How would you describe joy? Like a field of wildflowers on a bright summer day—vibrant and warm; free. If you asked me this question a month ago, this is probably how I would respond. God’s been speaking to me lately. He’s been speaking to me through pain, through waiting, through uncertainty, through trials, and tribulations.…

The Gift of the Immovable One
Anxiety plagued me for many years. It’s not that I don’t still struggle with it at times, but it doesn’t control me; it doesn’t move me. The key is to never let your anxiety become bigger than your faith. When I feel anxiety coming on, I surrender it to Jesus. I know, easier said than…

What’s the one thing you have to offer the world that no one else has? The one unique thing you have to offer is you. Be you! Always be you; everyone else is taken. I drive by this house almost daily, but for some reason, the other day, that bright pink door spoke to me.…

The Gift of God’s Glory
Someone said something in our Bible study group recently. “We are not the main characters; if anything, we are just extras.” For a moment, that stung a little. Then I quickly realized that was the human in me. We as humans all desire to be the main character, to be chosen, to be glorified in…

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. What does it mean to be clothed with strength and dignity? You can’t go to the mall and find either of these things. Strength and dignity is spiritual clothing—they come from…

The Gift of Movement
The wind blows through the trees, and rain falls to the ground. The bird flies across the sky, and the mother gives birth to her child. The baby takes it’s first steps and eventually learns to walk. Life is marked by movement. We experience mind shifts, heart changes, and spiritual growth. Even our mere thoughts…

The Gift of God’s Protection
I have a list of my passwords for all my different accounts. If one were to obtain this list, they would see that my longest and strongest password is for this blog. Everything I create is precious to me, and I take good care of it. I protect it. God too puts a password on…
