It is so easy to get caught up in our day-to-day happenings and forget to reach out to others with the words that we say. Yet kind words have the power to bring hope to another in ways that we might not even imagine. Think about the last time someone said something...

Mark 11:24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. In Mark 11 we are instructed to pray and thank God as though what we have been asking for has already been given. That sounds simple, but when you...

Morning Mist

Some mornings I awake to a world blanketed in mist. This mist rolls in off the sea and winds its way through the trees, obscuring my view so that all I can see is a blur behind the haze. This mist only stays for a short while and then, as the morning sun rises, it...

Matthew 6:33 Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need. I watched a video recently that really spoke to me. I had to watch it twice to fully understand its meaning. It started by describing the ways that we...

Matthew 5:14-16 You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may...
