Have you ever felt small or worthless? Overlooked, rejected, or like you just don’t measure up? The world may fail to see your value, but God never does. ❤️ You are precious to Him—worth more than silver, gold, or rubies. He knew everything about you and chooses you. Our greatest treasure isn’t something God can…

We can spend a lot of time doing things for God without spending time simply being with Him. I have felt a sense of distance lately, even in my duties. I faithfully show us to serve Him every day, but do I faithfully show up to just love Him and spend time getting to know Him better? Today…

Waiting on God can be a lot like pregnancy. You know something is coming, but you cannot force it to arrive before it is ready. Much of the most important development happens where you cannot see it. Stay faithful, keep preparing, and trust God with the timing. Don’t rush the delivery…just wait upon the Lord.…

Faith is a lot like learning to ride a bike. The Father gives us the gift, teaches us how to use it, holds us steady while we learn, and encourages us when we fall. Little by little, we learn to trust Him—and things that once seemed impossible begin to look possible. Do you want to…

Sometimes God doesn’t give us all the answers because we don’t need them yet. Job couldn’t see what was happening behind the scenes—and neither can we.

There are times when God warns us without telling us exactly what is coming. We may not know what is coming, and perhaps there is wisdom in that. If we knew, we might prepare according to our own understanding instead of looking to God as our source. Whatever lies ahead, our greatest preparation is to…

Sometimes trusting God with ourselves is easier than trusting Him with the people we love. We may be able to surrender our own lives but when it comes to our children, spouses, family, or friends—especially when they are struggling—we can find ourselves reaching back for what we already placed in His hands. We worry about…

When someone we love is struggling, our natural instinct is often to help. We want to solve the problem, change their thinking, convince them to make better choices, or somehow rescue them from whatever they are facing. And when someone we love is making choices that hurt us, the temptation can be even stronger. We…

Struggles have a way of revealing where our hearts turn. Job grieved, questioned, and hurt deeply—but he kept bringing his pain to God. A righteous heart isn’t one that never struggles. Sometimes it’s simply a heart that, even in the struggle, still chooses God. 💎

We don’t know the blessings God will unfold before us if we are faithful and intentional. Its not just about the time we set aside for Him. It’s remembering Him throughout our day, seeking His guidance before we act, and caring enough about what He thinks to ask, “Lord, what would You have me do?”…
