Encouraging people and telling them about Jesus, while we ourselves are sometimes still struggling with our own problems, can perhaps sometimes feel hypocritical. Although I try to be as transparent as possible in my own stories by describing my own setbacks and difficulties in my faith walk, it can sometimes look more polished to the […]

“If you faint in the day of adversity, your strength is small”– Proverbs 24:10 We all face them: moments in life when the ground beneath our feet seems to disappear. Moments when our routine collapses, familiar paths fail, and comfort is no longer an option. The Bible calls this “the day of adversity.” Not a

For a long time now, I’ve been consumed by an overloaded schedule and a lack of creativity and ideas. My head was full again. Arrgghhh, this is still a real weakness of mine; I’m always inclined to run ahead of myself, running, dashing, and flying in all directions. Like a headless chicken, and before I

Based on our human mindset, we want to make ourselves as comfortable as possible. We want our lives in order, our house in order, our finances in order, exemplary children, a good job, and a happy marriage.

This requires vulnerability, faith, and trust on our part to let go

Months had slipped by, during which I somehow couldn’t seem to get a handle on my quiet time, my time with God. Completely consumed by the daily grind, my regularity and discipline had vanished like snow in the sun. “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” – Hebrews 13:5 I hadn’t managed

I didn’t even realize I was desperately trying to maintain control over a situation until I entered a period of struggle. I had believed and trusted God and had taken a huge step of faith a few months earlier. And now I suddenly found myself in a difficult situation, precisely at the point where I

Life in the place where I now live with my husband is a place that we, without a doubt, received from God. My husband and I both grew up in the city. My husband “enjoyed” a little more of this city life in his youth than I did before he met Jesus, but more about

When you are all in for Jesus, the world thinks you’re a weirdo. It should come as no surprise that we, as “Jesus Freaks,” are labeled as crazy. The Bible warns us of this (1 Peter 4:12). “Dear friends, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal that has come on you to test you, as
