Lessons from Mom
Mother’s Day is this Sunday, and obviously, my mom has been on my mind a lot. If anyone deserved a day to be honored, it was her. Mom taught me so much, probably more than I will ever really know. So, in honor of Mother’s Day & my sweet Mom, this post is dedicated to…

Happy Birthday!
Today, Mom is celebrating her first birthday in heaven. I am so thankful for all of the birthdays I got to see her celebrate, but even more than her earthly birthday, I am even more thankful for her second birthday. By “second birthday,” I mean the day that Mom accepted Jesus Christ as her personal…

THANK YOU.
I often say that I don’t know how people go through a trial without God or a church family surrounding them. I definitely believe this even more now after having been through such a huge trial. In Romans, Paul gives us clear instructions on how to love one another in the body of Christ, and…

Where?
What happened in Boston yesterday breaks my heart. This world needs Jesus now more than ever. Yet, when something like this happens, many people will often ask, “Where was Jesus?” I’m sure people asked this question during 9/11, yesterday, and during many other tragedies. I’m guessing some might even pose this question when something hits…

While…
Let this verse sink in for a moment: Every time I read this verse I get completely overwhelmed and humbled. That word while just sticks out to me so much. Christ did not die for us while we loved Him, were obeying Him, etc., but Christ died for us while we were sinners. Christ died for us when…

Why Easter?
I hope you all had a happy Easter! Sadly, society has turned Easter into a holiday just about the Easter bunny, dying eggs, and getting a new dress. While, yes, all of these things are so fun (I love getting a new dress!), these things are NOT at all what Easter is truly about! The…

An Easter Tradition!
Easter is quickly approaching! I cannot believe it’s on Sunday! Easter was always one of Mom’s favorite holidays because it’s the day that we celebrate that Jesus Christ rose from the dead and is alive! My parents did an excellent job at keeping Christ at the center of holidays. Yes, we dyed Easter eggs and…

What Breaks My Heart…
Please note, I am saying all of this completely out of love. If you are homosexual, I love you, and so does Jesus Christ. According to all of my social media, the gay marriage debate is up for a vote again in some way or another. After seeing my news feed filled with various statuses, pictures,…

Top 10 Joyful Moments.
Last week, I wrote two posts about having joy in trials and grasping the abundant life God promises. Like I said, I saw these verses play out first hand in my life. I would like to share with you my “top 10” moments of joy/abundant life that God blessed me with during Mom’s journey with…
