It is a dangerous thing to rebel against God.  Those who rebel against God have no chance of winning. For over ten years, I’ve signed every blog post I’ve ever written with the phrase “Walk with the King.”  I love the term “King” because it elevates God to the place he deserves. Our God is the King of Kings!  He is robed in majesty.  He is strong, mighty and supreme over all creation. He has all authority, all sovereignty, all power, and all dominion!  He is magnificent, beautiful, supreme in his splendor and none compares to him. Oh that we […]

On my office wall is a collage of photos.  Most of them are just of my children, but there are two other additions. First, there’s the last Christmas card I ever received from my friend Mandy. Mandy served on the Leadership Team here at Good Morning Girls for 6 years and in March of 2017,  she died tragically in a house fire.  The other is the Funeral Pamphlet of my Pastor, Steve Marshall, who died of cancer in March of 2018.  He was my Jr. Youth Pastor, then Sr. Pastor, he was heavily influential in my decision to go to […]

Last spring, I opened my front door and discovered that a mama bird had chosen the wreath on my front door as the place to build her nest. This discovery posed a problem for me. My dog goes out the front door 5-6 times a day and each time I opened the door, the mama bird was disturbed and would fly away. I felt so badly for her, plus I didn’t want her to accidentally fly into our house creating a second problem.  So I rerouted my dog for a month.   After some time passed, the eggs safely hatched […]

Sometimes I think we don’t wrestle with God enough. Rather than digging in deep and lingering long in His word and laying out our soul in prayer, we turn to worldly bandaids to solve our problems. What if we got away from our family and friends and we closed our devotional books and shut down our phones and we got alone and simply wrestled it out with God. No quick easy fixes – just you and God – for hours. We google and click and scroll and click and meet in coffee houses in search of answers.  We buy book […]

On today’s video, I am sharing a very personal story about a time in my life when I was tempted and nearly slipped and stumbled  off the path of doing what is right.  The hardest part of this story is that it didn’t happen 20 years ago – it seems like it’d be easier to tell if it had.  Instead, it happened more like 2 years ago. For those who have followed my blog for a long time – you might remember when I posted a blog post titled: Walking in Faith When the Future Is Unclear.  After I posted […]

Welcome back to Week 5 of our Summer Bible Study in the book of Psalms.  At the end of this week, we will have reached the halfway point of our Summer Bible Study!  When fall comes we will move on to a different book of the Bible (I am working on it now and I can’t wait to share it with you!!!) but we will loop back again later and read Psalms 101-150. If you missed any part of our summer series, here are the links: Introducing the Book of Psalms 51-100 It’s Time to Begin! {Intro and Resources for […]

Did you know that the book of Psalms is the most quoted Old Testament book in the New Testament? After Jesus rose from the dead and appeared to the disciples, he said these words: 44 “These are my words that I spoke to you while I was still with you, that everything written about me in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled.” (Luke 24:44) Jesus said the Psalms had prophetic words within them.  Some of the Psalms that do this are Psalm 2, 8, 16, 22, 40, 41, 45, 68, 69, 102, 110, & […]

Every Sunday, as I sit in the worship service, I see high up over my pastor’s head, these words written on the wall: I came that they may have life and have it abundantly. John 10:10 There are weeks that I have sat there thinking about the first half of this verse that says: “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy.” And I’ve thought… it feels like the devil’s winning. He is stealing and killing and destroying things in my life. And so I wonder, what does an abundant life look like because I look around and […]
