This week the Good Morning Girls completed our study through Psalm 1-50! Way to go!!! I’m so proud of you for sticking with us! Here’s 10 Lessons We Learn From Psalm 1-50 1. There is power in meeting early in the morning with God. David said in Psalm 5:3, “O Lord, in the morning you hear my voice; in the morning I prepare a sacrifice for you and watch.” Our God is not limited to only speaking in the morning- he speaks at night time too – but David rose early in the morning to meet with God. If you feel like there are never […]

Read MoreHow Is the Most Important Part of You Doing?
This summer I have been walking my dog Snowball on a regular basis. Snowball is a very fluffy dog with short legs but she moves fast! So as soon as she hits the road – often she is walking me more than I am walking her. Just last night when I was walking her, a gentlemen commented on how my dog was pulling me up the hill. Lovely! Lol! Guess it’s noticeable to passers by – perhaps I need to get into better shape so I can keep up with my little dog! 🙂 It’s been a hot summer here […]

Read More5 Biblical Steps out of Depression
{Before I begin, I want to share that I have never had clinical depression and that is different than the type of depression I am writing about today. Please seek help from a professional if the darkness is not lifting and you are going numb or not able to function. Some people need medication to get through and that is nothing to be ashamed of. The brain is an organ like all our other organs and just like I currently take blood pressure medication for my heart, you may need medication to get through your depression.} Are you feeling stuck […]

Read MoreThe Lord is Near to the Brokenhearted
This week the Good Morning Girls have been reading in Psalms chapters 31-35. As I prayed about what to write for our Friday wrap-up post – Psalm 34:18 – just kept leaping off of the page. It says, The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit. When my husband walked out the door 2 1/2 years ago, I was crushed. My heart was broken in two and I was shocked and devastated by the betrayal. What I did not know then, was that the pain would continue to go on and take on new forms. The pain of watching […]

Read MoreOur God is the God of the Storm
As a kid, I remember being afraid of thunder and lightening until one day I heard someone say that the thunder was just God bowling up in heaven. Another time I heard someone joke that the thunder was just God moving some of his furniture around. Both of these images stuck in my mind and made storms seem much less scary to me as a child. But as adults, we know better. That thunder and lightening we see in the midst of a powerful storm – comes from the very hand of our God. Our God is the God of […]

Read MoreWhen It Feels Like God Has Turned His Back On You
God made us with a built in need for connection and relationships. But we all have times when we feel all alone. If you’ve ever showed up to a party early and there was no one there that you knew, you know that feeling. Things like the death of a loved one, a divorce, failing health, financial issues, marriage problems, parenting problems or being the subject of gossip — all lead to distress and can lead to feelings of loneliness. Even positive things like getting a new job, moving to a new neighborhood, having a new baby, or joining a […]

Read MoreTrusting God In Difficult Times
Do you ever feel like you have one problem after another after another? Recently, I found myself longing for just a few days in a row that are trouble free. In the book of Psalms, David cried out to God over and over during his difficult times –and God answered his cries. David found that the strength this world offers does not compare to the strength of our God. I have found this to be true as well! Join me on today’s video as we discuss: Trusting God in Difficult Times. {If you are reading this in an email […]

Read More7 Character Qualities of a Person Who Is Close to God
Women Living Well is all about being in God’s Word. There is power in meeting with God early in the morning. But being close to God is about more than just our morning devotions. We can read and read and read but if we do not apply God’s Word – we will not feel close to God. Disobedience is a barrier to closeness. In Psalm 15, David asks – who can be close to the Lord? O Lord, who shall sojourn in your tent? Who shall dwell on your holy hill? (Psalm 15:1) Then David answered his own question by listing the character qualities of those […]

Read MoreWhen You Feel Like God is Not Listening
Have you ever gone through a time when you felt like God seemed far away and like he was not listening to you? I’ve been there. I have sat and reflected on the messes in my life and wondered where God could be found. The hope of God swooping in and fixing certain problems – which I know he could do – does not always happen. Positionally, I know that I am not alone and that God is always with me. But look at David’s words in Psalm 10 verse 1. David says: Why, O Lord, do you stand far away? Why do […]

Read MoreThe Power of Meeting Early in the Morning With God
Are you a Good Morning Girl, a Good Afternoon Girl or a Good Night Girl? I happen to love late nights. I get so much done! Often times I get a boost of energy right when I should be going to bed and I begin tidying up the house or working on a project or reading a good book. But then I pay for it in the morning because I’m tired. Perhaps it was good, back when I started this ministry with the name “morning” in it – that I could not foresee how difficult it would be to live […]
