February, the month of love, is right around the corner. This is a time when we focus on celebrating those we love in special ways. A time when we want those we love to feel loved by us. Because everyone wants to feel loved, right? We were made for love. That’s why God created us. […]

Enjoy Your Best Gift Ever in 2021
Lately, I have read a lot of posts on social media about how none of us will be sorry to see 2020 in the rearview mirror. With Covid-19, our U.S. presidential election, social unrest, and so many other negative news items in 2020, a lot of people are hoping that the upcoming new year will […]
The Best Gift Ever Is a Person
‘Tis the season for gift giving. Some people are just naturally better gift givers than others. In our family, Steven is far better at giving gifts than me. He’s almost methodical when it comes to giving gifts to family members. He thinks about what they really like and searches (sometimes hours) for the perfect gift […]
It’s a Different Kind of Christmas This Year
From as far back as I can remember, I have loved the Christmas season. The season for gift giving, ornate Christmas cards, carols, festive gatherings that include delectable homemade goodies and Wassail, and listening to my Bing Crosby Christmas CD while wrapping gifts. As a little girl, I would lie awake on Christmas Eve, while […]
It’s a Wonderful Life in Christ!
Tis the season for watching Frank Capra’s 1946 movie, It’s a Wonderful Life, and being reminded that the choices we make throughout our lives matter. I have to admit that when I started watching this movie for the first time, I thought it was kind of depressing and wondered why it was considered a Christmas […]
Healthy New-Life-in-Christ Habits
If you live long enough, you will eventually have to deal with the challenges that aging brings. As a 56-year-old woman, it seems that “new” challenges are cropping up on a regular basis. I found out recently that my bones aren’t as dense as they need to be, so I’ve started calcium supplements and stepped […]
You Can Sin All You Want?
In my last post, “You Are Forgiven for the Sins of Your Lifetime,” I highlighted the truth that the believer in Christ has been forgiven for their past, present, and yes, even future sins. Now, if all you did was read the title of that post without reading its content, you might have been led […]
You Are Forgiven for the Sins of Your Lifetime
The forgiveness of God is one of the most misunderstood concepts in Christianity. I speak from experience. I didn’t have a firm grasp on it for most of my Christian life. But after God unveiled this liberating truth to me in all of its new covenant glory, I have experienced much rest and reveling in […]
Your Indestructible Union with Christ
Have you ever worried about losing your salvation? Has there ever been a time in your life when you felt like you walked away from Christ or that you did something bad enough for Him to leave you? If you answered yes to the above questions, then you’re in good company. There are a lot […]
You Are Jesus’ One and Only True Love
When you read the title of this post, you might think, “How is that possible, when so many belong to Him?” It’s like the time I went to a funeral of a beloved grandmother and each grandchild shared that he or she was her favorite. That’s how they felt anyway. When she spent quality time […]
