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 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…

It was Saturday, and I couldn’t wait to get my day started. As I made my way to the car after dropping off a nice fat check to my CPA, I stopped in my tracks when I saw a beautiful magenta plant spread out against the backdrop of a bright gray sky. How does one…

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…

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”…

The Gift of Change: Melting an Ice Cold Heart
The other day, I was filling up my water bottle with ice and noticed some of my ice cubes had began to clump together. I picked up a chunk and realized it couldn’t possibly fit in my bottle. “It just needs to melt a little bit.” I told myself. As I looked at it, I…

The Gift of Your Glow
Lately I’ve been on a sunless tanning journey. When I realized my old foundation powder no longer matched my skin tone, I decided to make a trip to the makeup store. I quickly grabbed a couple of shades of powder and made a beeline to the first employee I saw who wasn’t already helping someone—a…

The Gift of Being a Woman
Women’s Day is right around the corner, and I’ve been thinking lately about what it means to be a woman. A woman at her best is driven by love not leadership, peace not power, connection not control. This doesn’t mean women can’t be leaders, but it shouldn’t be her driving force nor her end goal.…
