There’s a country song called “Jesus Take the Wheel” and I’ve always loved it. In the song she loses all control and cries out for Jesus to take over and it’s a good reminder of what he can and will do. But I’ve been thinking about putting Jesus at the wheel to begin with. Instead of waiting until everything is spinning out of control to ask Jesus to take over, why don’t we let him take over now before things […]

What is Truth? Have you ever wondered What is Truth? Who do I believe? Whose word can I trust? Do you ever feel totally overwhelmed? The news, your friends, the internet, social media, all screaming “facts” at you and they don’t connect. I love reading conspiracy theories. As a kid I didn’t realize that’s what they really were called, I just enjoyed reading other people’s ideas of what could’ve happened. With the age of internet you can find conspiracy theories everywhere, […]
Rise Above the Mess

(Written on Thursday) In considering the coming of Easter Sunday and how we celebrate Christ’s rising from the dead, another thought occurred to me. Because Jesus triumphed over death, we can rise above the mess that all to often is our life. Christ gained the ultimate victory in rising above death. In that great victory, we are given the freedom to rise above as well. Rise Above the Mess: Rise above our fears Rise above our pain Rise above our […]
My Prayers for My Son

I think every parent feels this way, the overwhelm of realizing that you are raising a child in a far different world than the one you grew up in. I find myself crying out to God daily, inundating him with my prayers for my son. I feel these prayers are important. That they keep me at the feet of God, that the tempter may know who protects my son, and that my son may know the source of mine (and […]

Do you ever feel like you aren’t doing enough for the Lord because you are a mom? Do you feel like witnessing to others as a stay at home mom is impossible because you are just too busy? Many women feel like they are a failure when it comes to doing stuff for the Lord, because they are too busy raising a family. You hear of a sick neighbor that you should take food to, but your own children need […]
I’m a Control Freak!

Have you ever had one of those times when you discover something a little less than desirable about yourself? Like maybe realizing you’re a control freak? I have. Like that time I realized, I really don’t like people telling me how to do stuff. Or that time I was more than annoyed because hubby was right and not me (that’s the norm around here). Or the time we were going out on jet skies on vacation and I refused to […]

First, the inspiration for this post. Jesus is talking about trust. He says “take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink…” Mat.6:25 Trust is an issue with me. I’ve always had a hard time trusting others. It’s easier to just depend on myself because I know I can do it. There is a problem with that, though. Maybe I should say several problems. Number one is the stress. When you try to do […]
