The Battle Is Not Yours

“And he said, “Listen, all Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem and King Jehoshaphat: Thus says the Lord to you, ‘Do not be afraid and do not be dismayed at this great horde, for the battle is not yours but God’s,” ~ 2 Chronicles 20:15 Back at the end of January, I was reading a book series.…… Continue reading The Battle Is Not Yours

Compassion and Grace ~ A Journal Entry

Recently, I found a passage in the Bible that really touched me. The whole chapter is Isaiah 54. As someone who struggles with perfectionism, I often times tend to see God almost as a dictator. I find myself often thinking, oh no, I just thought that. And that thought usually ends up going in the…… Continue reading Compassion and Grace ~ A Journal Entry

Journal Entry

“It is good for me that I was afflicted, that I might learn your statutes,” – Psalm 119:71 There are many verses in Psalm 119 that I love, but I finally decided on this one.

Proclaim

  In this world, it is critical for us to remind ourselves of all the Lord has done in our lives. So often, however, we can find ourselves dismissing that notion. Perhaps because of pride, or maybe we truly aren’t sure how God has been at work in our life. Psalm 96:2-3 says, “Sing to…… Continue reading Proclaim

Judeo-Christain Foundation

“It is impossible to rightly govern a nation without God and the Bible,” ~ George Washington Many people today are declaring that America was never a Christian nation, that it was not founded on Judeo-Christian values. And if people’s eyes are not opened to the truth, then this falsehood could become even more rooted in…… Continue reading Judeo-Christain Foundation
