In 2019, I did something I had never done before. I created prayer lists. Not just for myself, but for people, causes, and organizations. I wrote down names and needs, and I committed to praying for them regularly. That practice continued for over three years. Looking back, I can say it was one of the most transformative habits in my… Read More
Persistence in prayer used to be a challenge for me. I’ve had seasons where I started strong, waking for midnight prayers, journaling daily, and then seasons where I barely managed 15 minutes. But Jesus taught us something important about persistence through the parable of the persistent widow (Luke 18:1–8). The Parable in Brief A widow kept pleading with an unjust… Read More
Do you ever feel like time has passed you by? Like you’ve missed your chance, or that it’s “too late” to step into the dreams God has placed in your heart? Many of us carry this quiet ache as we grow older. But Scripture reminds us again and again that God is not bound by our clocks. Abraham and Sarah… Read More
Have you noticed how often society equates a woman’s worth with her youth, beauty, or milestones? By a certain age, you’re expected to be married, have children, reach a career peak, and look a certain way while doing it. And when those boxes remain unticked, or when our bodies start changing with time, it’s easy to wonder, “Am I still… Read More
There have been seasons in my walk with God when I simply didn’t know what to pray. Times when grief sat too heavy on my chest, or when discouragement left me numb. After a season where I had been consistent in midnight prayers, I suddenly found myself unable to even keep a 15-minute prayer rhythm. I felt guilty. Frustrated. Lost…. Read More
I think many of us were trained to admire people who live for others. The ones who serve tirelessly, who never seem to think of themselves, who are always available when needed. It looks noble. It looks godly. And in many ways, it’s not. In Luke 10, Jesus gives us a shocking reminder that not all service is obedience. The… Read More
Does waiting ever feel like the hardest part of faith? For many us, patience isn’t just about standing in line or sitting in traffic. It’s about waiting for God’s promises, whether that’s marriage, family, or clarity about the future. Waiting can feel endless, and if we’re being honest, our impatience often turns into frustration or despair. But Scripture reminds us… Read More
In the last relationship secret, we talked about the importance of knowing God for yourself. Your walk with Him cannot depend on your partner’s devotion. But when two people who know God individually come together, something powerful happens: they can seek Him collectively and align their relationship with His vision. Why vision matters in courtship Courtship isn’t just about enjoying… Read More
There’s a story in Scripture that still shakes me every time I read it. God told His prophet Hosea to do something unthinkable: “Go, take to yourself a wife of whoredom and have children of whoredom, for the land commits great whoredom by forsaking the Lord.” (Hosea 1:2). Hosea obeyed. He married Gomer, a woman who would repeatedly walk away… Read More
