Joy isn’t found in the absence of suffering, but in remembering who Jesus is and what He has done for us.

We often say “Jesus loves you,” but Scripture tells us something even more intimate: Jesus prayed for you. John 17 reveals a deeply personal love—one that reaches across generations, into your present circumstance. Come hear His prayer for you.

We don’t always get clarity on the road ahead. But God invites us to trust that the unknown path may be the most meaningful part of the journey.

Faith allows me to know that even though I’m often caught unaware by my life circumstances, God never is.  He’s already planned how to work through them for my good (Romans 8:28).  It’s hope of God moving in all things that allows me to move forward with joy and freedom, tackling my issues with faith instead of being dominated by them.

If you’ve ever lain awake worrying about your grown child, wondering where you went wrong, you’re not alone. Many parents struggle silently when you can’t fix your adult child’s pain, no matter how much you long to help. We all carry unspoken dreams for our children. We imagine them steady, happy, and purposeful. But when life circumstances interrupt that vision (such as depression, addiction, distance, or pain), it can shake us to the core.

“This awful moment wasn’t going to be the end of my story. When life feels impossibly hard, it’s easy to wonder if things will ever get easier. But in the very place where I fell apart, God began to rebuild something beautiful."

When we encounter division and hatred, our response should reflect the heart of Christ—standing for justice while still showing love, pursuing truth while extending grace.

You are my Calm amidst the storm, and I know You will never forsake me—not now, not tomorrow, not ever.

When you feel like you’re not enough, remember: your worth isn’t defined by rejection or circumstances. True strength and peace come from anchoring your identity in Christ’s unshakable love.

Tired of carrying it all on your own? God is near, ready to help shoulder the weight and bring peace where you need it most.

What I thought would be the adventure of a lifetime became a mirror of the shame I had carried for decades.

If we wait for everything to be convenient and easy, we may never go—sometimes God calls us to step forward when it doesn’t feel like the right time.

Peace doesn’t come from perfect balance—it comes from releasing what was never ours to carry.

I struggled with the cross after Jonathan died. Still, the Cross whispered truth.

Prayer is a powerful connection to God that allows peace to descend into even the most hectic of moments.

The enemy is crafty, twisting truth into lies—but God’s Word is stronger, a light that scatters the darkness.

I sat back and read the words—harsh and bitter, just like the storm raging inside me.

Every time I chose to twist and wriggle my way out of what God was asking of me, it led to hurt ...

God created us to be human be-ings, not human do-ings.

I might see some initial progress, but without addressing the deeper reasons behind my struggle, I’ll end up right back at square one ...
