The Gift of a Wife: Becoming the Proverbs 31 Woman
He who finds a wife finds a good thing. (Proverbs 18:22) What makes a wife? A wedding ceremony, a ring on your finger, a shared bank account and living space? I want to make a bit of an ironic claim: The “Proverbs 31 woman” was a wife before she had a husband and would have…

The Gift of an Unanswered Prayer
“God answers prayers in three different ways: yes, not yet, I have something better in mind.” Unknown When I was in my mid twenties, I thought I was in love. I’ve never prayed so hard for someone to stay in my life, and I never will again. It was never God’s will for this person…

The Gift of an Answered Prayer
An answered prayer is an opportunity for God to show us His love and goodness. A couple of months ago, after eating at our favorite Mexican restaurant, my mom and I went back to her house for some quality time. Little did I know, this “quality time” would consist of a desperate search for Sophia,…

The Gift of Your Prayer Place
In the evenings, before I get in bed, I get comfortable and sit in the presence of God. After I clean up and after I eat, I make up my couch and turn down the covers on my bed. Then, I turn the thermostat down so it’ll be nice and cool when I climb into…

The Gift of Prayer
This is my rosary. It was given to me on my first communion, and I have my grandmother’s rosary as well. I’ve always loved rosaries; I think they are so beautiful.

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…
