Planting the Seeds of Truth
I started gardening after my mom died to honor her because she loved gardening so much. God has used it to talk to me a lot lately. This last time it was about seeds and how to plant them. After planting my flowers, I discovered I was impatient and would go out every couple ofContinue reading “Planting the Seeds of Truth”
Prune my Heart, O Lord
When you are gardening you learn the difference between weeding and trimming. I talked about wedding in one of my older posts. It was easy to think about, no one wants the bad stuff in our life. However, God has helped me see that even trimming of the “good” is required to keep our heartsContinue reading “Prune my Heart, O Lord”
Breath of Life
When my mom was sick and had trouble breathing I use to pray for God to be her breath and provide her with the air she needed. Just as he breathed life into Adam I wanted him to continue breathing life into mom. Now I am realizing that should be my prayer for all ofContinue reading “Breath of Life”
Holding Hands with God
I love how God paints a beautiful picture of His love for us in Scripture. Today when I was reading Isaiah 41 I couldn’t help but pause and reread verse 13. When children get scared parents often reach out and hold their hands to comfort them. It is a way of saying, “I have you,Continue reading “Holding Hands with God”
Search Me, O God
Weeding my garden yesterday made me think about the importance of allowing God to search our hearts and weed out the thoughts and areas that may have started to steal our joy. Weeding is an important task to do in gardening. It is time-consuming, and no one likes to do it; however, it is necessaryContinue reading “Search Me, O God”

Sometimes in life, it is so easy to think what is the point. However, even when things are happening that you don’t understand when life feels like it is falling apart around you, God is there. He hears the prayers of his children. I cannot explain why things happen the way they do but IContinue reading “My Jesus”

Three steps, I will not say easy steps, but God promises to be with us through these steps. Step 1: Rejoice in HopeHope is ours for the taking. Our faith in Jesus will give us Hope. Hope for a better time, Hope for an eternity worshipping our God. Hope for a world with no moreContinue reading “Rejoice in Tribulations”
Letting Go of Control
I am a recovering Control Freak. I say recovering because as with any other addiction you have to learn to fight it every day. I always would justify my need for control by saying I was just trying to make sure everything was good for everyone. I was the fixer in the family. I thoughtContinue reading “Letting Go of Control”
Trusting and Praising
I was reading Psalms 150 this morning and this verse came to mind. God knew what I needed to hear this morning. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 Rejoice always, pray continually, and give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. If we take our focus off Him and look atContinue reading “Trusting and Praising”
Commitment
God wants all of you! Your mind and body, Romans 12:1-2I appeal to you, therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind.Continue reading “Commitment”
