The Gift of a God Who is Greater
My Bible study group is beginning a new book. As we were looking over it together, I found myself becoming more aware of my human-ness. It’s one thing to know that we are human; it’s something else entirely when you feel it, accept it, and allow yourself to live in it. I’ve always struggled with…

The Gift of a Heart Hidden in God
“A woman’s heart should be so hidden in Christ that a man would have to seek after God just to find her.” -unknown For many years of my life, I held my own heart in my hands, ready and willing to give it to anyone I felt like I could love. My heart was anything…

The Gift of a Woman’s Joy
Lately, I’ve really been enjoying my floral finger painting. It’s really brought out two sides of my personality that are precious to me—my femininity as well as my inner-child. “Some days, you just have to take off work, put on some classical music and paint some flowers.” I told myself, and that’s exactly what I…

The Gift of Christmas
“Christmas isn’t about presents; it’s about His presence.” -unknown I had a dream last night. A lady and I were talking, and she asked me, “If God is real, why doesn’t he give me the two hundred dollars I need right now so I can buy Christmas presents?” As I looked into this lady’s eyes,…

The Gift of a God-Sized Void
How does happiness happen? This is the topic of discussion as of lately at my church. Happiness happens when we begin to see unhappiness differently. Happiness happens when we begin to use our unhappiness as the catalyst for our happiness. We have the power to change our lives, and the amazing thing about it is…

The Gift of Being Chosen
It was spring—not too long after moving into the first place I could call my own. I went to sit outside on the porch steps and noticed a black and white cat with a trail of itty bitty black and white fur babies tagging along behind her in a single file line. As they passed…

The Gift of the Little Girl
Sometimes God speaks to us, but we are so lost, so broken, it can be hard to hear Him. There was a point in my life I was lost. During this time, God gave me a dream. “The Little Girl” 6/19/16 (an entry from my dream journal) I was supposed to be babysitting a little…
