Welcome

My child, eat honey, for it is good, and the honeycomb is sweet to the taste. In the same way, wisdom is sweet to your soul. If you find it, you will have a bright future, and your hopes will not be cut short.

-Proverbs 24:13-14

When Your World Is Shaken

I have not been sure how to share what’s been going on in our lives, but I’ve felt a nudge from God to share. I have wanted things to be all tied up in a pretty bow before sharing, but that’s just not life. We all have these unresolved struggles and that is where the rubber really hits the road, and we have to put our faith into practice.

Daffodil grit

Spring is here, guys! I love Spring. Daylight Savings happens, so the days are longer. The temperatures warm up a little, but not too much. Flowers bloom. Layers of clothing can come off. It’s just lovely.

Precious and precarious

A few years ago, Cherry Blossom trees came to my attention two random times in the same day.

I was in the car with my husband and girls trying to remember what the cherry tree I climbed as a child looked like. I googled cherry trees but only came up with pictures of Cherry Blossom trees, which were at least pretty to look at.

The Waves

We will all face waves of difficulty in this life. The question is, how will we handle them. Will we allow them to pull us under, or will we acknowledge them but put our eyes and hope on the One who is in control of it all?

Through personal and biblical stories, author Melissa Webster helps you see that you aren’t alone and you can withstand the waves. This book is a reminder that God is in control, and He is with you. The key is to keep your eyes on Him, and not on the waves. They may be big, but God is bigger.
