The Love That Left Glory

Imagine a love so great that would move someone to leave the perfection of Heaven and come to earth. This earth, that is filled with such terror; so much pain. Imagine the sinless Son of God, who possessed riches beyond belief, willingly submitting himself to this sinful world, coming to save those who spurned his name. Those who would scream “Crucify him!”

This article was originally written for We Are His Daughters My Husband and I are reading Randy Alcorn’s book entitled “Heaven.” Now, that’s a book that will cause you to long for our true home. Heaven is a place of perfection and righteousness. A place with no more pain, fear, or death. Can you imagine never […]

The Pursuit of Happiness and Why Its Pursuers Aren’t Happy

Our happiness collides almost daily with the happiness of others. Because we live in a sinful world, as sinful humans, we will encounter difficulty with other people.

It’s a vicious cycle, really. Climbing the “corporate ladder”, trying to get your foot in the door before anyone else. It’s even on display in the festivities of Black Friday, which seems to be a bigger “holiday” than Thanksgiving lately. What’s behind the arguing and backstabbing we witness so frequently? People striving for whatever they […]

God Will Use Your Brokenness

Because of sin, we will experience pain and loss. It’s inevitable. People will hurt us. Sometimes, in very grievous ways. God never promised that our lives would be easy, but if we are his, he does promise to use our pain for our good and his glory.

This article was originally written for Broken Beautiful Bold Ministries here. We are a broken people, am I right? Each of us come from various backgrounds and upbringings that shape our character and struggles. We have been broken by others, broken by this world and are undeniably broken at the core of our being. For the […]

Ladies, You Can Trust Your Bible

God’s Word is true, unchanging, sufficient and inerrant. It can and should be trusted.

Across the world, many self proclaimed Christian women have forgotten the value of their bible. There are different explanations for this. Some of them feel they are too busy. Some rely on books and devotions about the Word instead of relying on the Word itself. But I’m certain there are some who, for whatever reason, […]

When Your Thoughts Are Wicked

Have you ever been scared of your own sin? I’m talking “heart skips a beat, shame fills your head, despair in your stomach” kind of scared. A sinful thought that appears to come out of no man’s land enters your mind, breaks your weak heart, and off you go into a spiral of doubt. “I’m a […]

Your Feelings are Lying to You

All day, we are fed truths and lies from every direction. A TV show can cause us to become sad (The Walking Dead, anyone?). A conversation with a friend can leave you feeling like your husband isn’t nearly as sweet as hers. The magazine rack at the store can make you feel less attractive. So many things feed into our emotions. When unwanted or sinful feelings arise, we must hold them up to the truth found in God’s word.

Feelings. They are the devil, am I right? Okay, no not really. Feelings can actually be a blessing in many ways, though they often feel like a nuisance. What would it be like to experience feelings apart from the fall? To experience love in it’s purest form, or the closeness of a relationship without fear of being hurt. […]
