What comes to mind when you hear the word CHEATING? 🤔 For me, it’s usually someone cheating at a board game or on a test. LOL! But did you know cheating means acting dishonestly or unfairly to gain an advantage? WOW! That puts a whole new perspective on things! In today’s Bible reading, Ishmael sat…

Have you ever wondered why the wicked seem to prosper while those trying to live righteously face so many difficulties? Jeremiah asked God that very question. But God’s response wasn’t exactly what he expected! “If racing against mere men makes you tired, how will you race against horses?” — Jeremiah 12:5 NLT Sometimes we’re asking…

After my dog was hit by a car, I was sure I was going to lose her. But later that night, we found our injured girl sitting in the back field—right back at her post, faithfully watching over us and our property. God used my beloved watchdog to teach me something about dedication, prayer, healing,…

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.

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.

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…

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. 💎

Well, I did it again. I got carried away worrying about things I have absolutely no control over! I guess it’s pretty easy to do—especially when something immediately triggers an emotional response, sending us into a tailspin that wasn’t meant for us. But as I write this, I remember that things aren’t always as they…

Have you ever prayed, “Lord, please be with me today,” as though He might leave? God isn’t the One who wanders. We are. He has already promised, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” Instead of spending our lives wondering if He’s still with us, let’s start asking, “Lord, what mission do You have…
