How Do You Know? Head vs. Heart

When it comes to discernment, the biggest distinction for me is head vs. heart. I'm making a habit of asking God what He wants whenever I am faced with a decision and am praying for God to pull my heart in His direction.

Even If/ What Then?

If God doesn't answer my prayers in the way I ask, in the time frame I ask, what then? Even if He doesn't, I'm going to choose to remain faithful, because who He is does not change based on circumstances.

Lessons from a License Plate

Words on a license plate frame stopped me in my tracks, but the lesson didn't end there. I'm grateful for the moments when God gives me a little glimpse of what He is up to, especially when the situation seems counterproductive from my vantage point.

What You Can Handle

Life gives us more than we can handle, but God's grace is sufficient!

Faith vs. Feelings

The first time I learned that faith and feelings don't always coincide, my mind was blown. God is a still pillar of hope in the midst of any emotions we experience though, and God never changes.
