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 […]

Today we begin the 4th and final week of the 31-Day Habit Tracking Challenge! And whether you joined us for this challenge or not, I think we all have times when we feel like giving up on doing the hard things in life.

My month has looked like this: I intend to go to bed early and then one of my kids needs to stay up late studying or we […]
