Don’t you just love God’s promises! They comfort, encourage and give us hope. One of my favorite life verses is Jeremiah 29:11. “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” This is one of…
RELATABLE JESUS
Is it just me or do you have a grand idea of God I think of Him in all His glory, on the throne, surrounded by angels worshipping Him 24/7. As if he is in heaven and I’m on earth, unreachable. Even in my most intimate moments with Him, it’s hard to see Him as…
THE DRIVE
How many Warriors fans do we have here Being a Bay Area girl, I was pumped this past Monday night when they won the finals championship vs. the Cavs. It was such a fun game to watch, LeBron + Kyrie are amazing as well. I like a good game in general. I recently, read an…
STAYING READY
God is so funny to me. He literally makes me laugh and he is so creative in how he sets up ministry in my life. He loves using bait. I’ve watched Him over and over, use the ordinary for supernatural purposes. I think back to the time he used mascara to speak one of the…
CAPACITY TO LOVE
I like to think that I love everyone. As long as I’m living comfortably unoffended then it’s easy to convince myself. Whereas we naturally choose friends based on common interests, seasons in life and how they benefit us, God chooses differently. When you truly allow Him free reign to select exactly who he wants in…
DESIRE WISDOM
We all make foolish moves, mistakes we wish we could do-over. The word wisdom commonly defines someone older, gray-haired and that has learned from their mistakes. Yet, the bible says to desire wisdom and your days will go good for you. In the story of King Solomon, David’s son, God approached Him and offered Him…
LIFE ALTER-ING
Recently, I attended my favorite annual conference 212 in South Carolina. I always come expectant and always leave charged. There the Holy Spirit really spoke to me about coming to the alter. He has been really trying to get my attention lately, well for years now, to press in. When he began to tell me…
LIMP FREE LIVING
We all experience tragedy. We all have had unexpected pain hit us. At some point in your life, you will suffer, it’s just a fact of life. The question is not will you suffer, but instead, what happens when you suffer? Suffering doesn’t destroy faith, it refines it.” I remember a few years ago when…
OBEDIENCE OVER SACRIFICE
Obedience is not always fun. It often takes laying down “your rights” and trusting the unknown. But the Bible shows us time and time again that the Lord requires obedience in order to please Him. He doesn’t say pray about, consult with others or ask Google. When God tells you to do something, you obey…
LABOR SEASON
Hello loves! This week’s post is really personal and I hesitated to share and only have to a few. It’s not because I don’t want to share and those that know me, know I’m an open book. It’s just so fresh, emotional and a daily reality for me. Yet, my goal for Lens of Faith…
