He Can Do It Again


Remember the valley? When you couldn’t get yourself to stop running after the wrong things?

I remember many nights falling face down on the floor, begging God to take away the pain and insecurities. I begged Him to find another way to test me. An easier, less painful way. But He didn’t.

Instead, He led me right through the middle of it, never forsaking me. It was a slow process, but it happened!  

During my devotions this morning, a verse popped up that struck a chord on my heart.


I’m so thankful for where I am today. I’ve felt God work moment by moment on my heart.  I could have easily given up and walked away from God and my relationship with Him. He has done a great work in my life AND He’s not finished!

Please don’t give up. Remember how far He has brought you! Be faithful in your pursuit of Him!
He can and WILL do it again!

Still I Rise

I found the above scripture quote on Pinterest tonight. It very accurately sums up how I feel right now. Even through failure, I will rise and seek God. Even when I sit in darkness and can see no way out, the Lord will be my light. No matter what may come my way, God is there and ready to comfort, strengthen and lead me. The song below is called “It Is Well”. There is a phrase that says “Through it all, through it all, my eyes are on You. Through it all, through it all it is well, it is well with me.”  No matter what, I know God is God. As long as I focus on Him and stay in line with His will for me, all is well and I can continue on.  Rise! The Lord will be your light! Praise Him!                       

The Struggle Is Real

Hot dang! I thought these days were behind me. God has been teaching me so much lately. Everything has seemed to be on the right track for a couple months and His word has been speaking so loudly to me, confirming that I'm on the right track. Then today happened. Nothing really specific happened. It really was a good day with the kids. We had such great time together! Then insecurity and anger crept in like the jerk it is. Add a sappy song and it's a perfect recipe for disaster. What in the world!? I think there will just be bad days some times. Fighting the urge tonight to do anything I'll regret. It's hard. The struggle is so real! I'm thankful I have the kids tonight. Thankful I have my parent's to talk me through these emotions. Thankful that Christ Himself has experienced all the same trials He asks me to endure. He goes ahead of me in each situation. Also walks beside me, helping me along. Tonight is one of those lay-on-the-floor-and-cry-out-for-help...

When My Heart Is Overwhealmed

I live on my own with my two beautiful children. I love it. I love having our own space and I love having our established routine. We all look forward to it and it provides the consistency and security the children and I have so desperately needed these past few years. About twice a month we jump into what feels like someone else’s life. Trying to be a big happy family, mothering an extra child, trying to cram in all our normal weekend activities while still attempting to connect with my spouse and caring for my own children’s hearts as well. I stress about my finances, trying to make sure I’m set up to do it all on my own in case anything changes with child support or in case something changes with my relationship status and I’m left to do it alone. It’s a lot to process. It feels like everyone just assumes everything is all good and I’m fine.   I’m not fine. I’m overwhelmed. I’m stressed and frustrated. I want to be able to rest and I don’t g...
