JESUS + NOTHING

Jesus + Nothing missions trip to Belize

It’s almost fall already! Where has the time gone? I hope you had a wonderful summer! While praying on what the Holy Spirit would have me write this week, He spoke what was my life message a few years ago. One I have not yet shared the blog. Jesus + Nothing. A few years ago,…

TAKE A MOMENT

Take A Moment

Growing up a church girl, I’ve known all my life that Jesus died for my sins. Yet, the knowledge of that fact can become too common. The Sunday school stories too sweet. In reality, Jesus didn’t just die quickly for our sins. He was tortured, pierced, mocked, ridiculed by past followers and betrayed by close…

He Knows Best

Just this past weekend, I was blessed to visit for the first time, the gorgeous island of Nantucket. It took my breath away to say the least. From the dreamy harbor filled with boats to the rich purple, pink and blue hydrangeas that graced each home and street. Surrounding this island full of hidden treasure…

Its Not Fair 7

Just yesterday, I was having coffee with a friend at our favorite spot, Sola. I just returned from my trip to California and she just returned from a summer tour of Europe. I was sharing with her that I experienced one of the most powerful nights, on one particular night of my trip. While visiting…

PROMISE KEEPER

Promise Keeper 3

One of the most comforting facts of life is that God never lies. In fact, it is impossible for Him to lie. Hebrews 6:18 Just let that sink in for a moment. It is impossible for God to lie. What comfort! In a world where we face disappointments, dishonest people and unreliable circumstances, we can…

CHARACTER REVEALED

character revealed

We all have those people in our lives, that we can only take in small doses. When we spend time with them we suddenly “become someone else.” Our default reaction is to blame that challenging person. Or situations that really cause us to feel or react negatively. But the truth is, that person or situation…

IN CONTEXT

in context

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

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…

STAYING READY

Staying ready 2

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…

If the devil can’t get rid of you in your mother If the devil can’t get rid of you in your mother’s womb then he will attack your mind, your life to try and defeat you. ⚠️
You must be on guard, know his tactics and defeat him with the authority God has given you as a believer. Believe truth over lies friends.
God doesn’t make mistakes.
You are chosen.
Your life has great purpose.
You are loved.
💙
“The devil was a murderer from the beginning, and does not uphold the truth, because there is no truth in him.

Whenever he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, because he is a liar and the father of lies.” 
-John 8:44

When the devil tries to attack us with doubt & dis When the devil tries to attack us with doubt & discouragement, we must use our God given authority to silence the father of lies.
SPEAK BACK. 🗣 
His #1 goal is to get you to give up on your purpose, your promises, your dreams, your relationships and ultimately your life.
He’ll make you think you have mental illness, anxiety, depression & confusion. He’ll even have you blame others but in reality he is the peace robber. He is the root cause of the attacks on your mind.
He knows that if he can control your thoughts, then he can control your life.
He’s never original. All he can do is counterfeit. He’s been up to his same ol’ tricks since day one in the garden. 🐍
But there’s hope, friends. The more you captivate your thoughts, stop entertaining yourself with the things of this world, saturate yourself in God’s word, allow him access to your heart, let him heal you of your past and believe the truth of who he says you are, the more you’ll live FREE.
The enemy will constantly try to sneak in and lie when he knows we’re vulnerable. But when he realizes that we cannot be moved, then he loses his power over us and backs off. 🔥 Remember, you are not defeated. You are more than a conqueror in Christ. 💙
“I have given you the authority to resist the devil and he will flee from you. Do not fear. Be strong & Courageous.” -James 4:7, Joshua 1:9
Side note: not everything is the devils fault. But if you are living surrendered to God then attacks on your mind to try and cancel your purpose, need to be silenced.

It’s easy to tell someone you love them but acti It’s easy to tell someone you love them but actions speaking louder than words, is when you’re selfless. Saying yes when you want to say no and with a good attitude is the best proof.
Jesus is the best example of this. He proved his true love for us when he sacrificed on the cross and he did it willingly.
Be a person who sacrifices for others. Live selfless in a selfish world. Be there when it counts by acting like Jesus.💙
self·less
/ˈselfləs/
adjective
concerned more with the needs and wishes of others than with one's own; unselfish.
"an act of selfless devotion"
