“We come close to God and approach Him with an open heart, fully convinced that nothing will keep us at a distance from Him. For our hearts have been sprinkled with blood to remove impurity, and we have been freed from an accusing conscience. Now we are clean, unstained, and presentable to God inside and out!” (Hebrews‬ ‭10‬:‭22‬) God is so in tune with our everything and we can be sure He will not reject us for anything. He accepts an honest heart poured out before Him. He’s not ready and waiting to stand waving a finger in our face, He instead waits with open arms. The conscience can trip us up and tell us to stay at a distance. … Continue readingRest Assured

“Run the race marked out for you, fixing your eyes on Jesus, the Author and Perfecter of your faith.” (Hebrews 12:1) I heard heavy breathing behind me and steady jogging feet. The runner reached my side. It was obvious, he was so worn out. I looked at him and said, “You got this!” Can I say the same to you? In this race called life, we all get worn out.

Life is filled with chapters that can cause us to lose hope, even bow out completely. My steps have walked into suffering this past year, but the Lord has produced peace that makes no sense. It’s His promise that we can go from strength to strength as we fall completely on Him. Since the foundations were laid, our days were known to the Almighty. In the questionable chapters, what if it’s His way of pulling us in? To show us He’s trustworthy. To exhaust us of our own … Continue readingJoy In Suffering?

“A view is waiting for you,” my cousin texted, with breathtaking pictures overlooking her farm. I immediately craved getting there. Rolling hills, open pastures and open skies; cattle grazing in the fields with plenty, the noise of the world left behind. Simplicity. Just the moment. My heart settles there. I never want to leave. What about the other view waiting? The moment where sorrow and pain cease, our tears will be wiped away and we’ll be face to face with Jesus! No clock, no rushing. No chaos or darkness. Let your heart settle in. A view is waiting beyond our wildest dreams! (Rev 21:4, Isaiah 11:6 ) Until then, may all the capturing views here make us crave our future … Continue readingA View Is Waiting
