From Our Hearts

You have dreams and responsibilities that make up your life. Begin your journey of following and fulfilling your dreams and taking care of your responsibilities with one single step. Here's how to get started on a goal.

Here’s the world’s greatest advice to making right choices! Scribble it on your mirror and the palm of your hand. Write it down and carry it in your purse. Make it your screensaver. It will be life changing. 

Tomorrow, when a fresh morning greets you, you will have a big choice to make: Do I let my busy day — no, not my busy day, my crazy, hectic, full of moment-by-moment decisions — drag me down? Or do I choose as the Bible tells me to “walk in the Spirit” (Galatians 5:16)? 

Proverbs 3:6 says, “In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.” But what does that look like in your daily life? Here are five ways to acknowledge the Lord and become more Christlike.

Prayer is an act of faith. Prayer is talking to someone you can’t see, about something you don’t have, with no visible means of obtaining it. So, why should we pray?

Waiting. It’s so hard for us in today’s instant- access society. In fact, it seems impossible at times. But what happens while you and I wait on the Lord? 

The choices you make right now will determine whether you fulfill God’s design for your life. Whatever you’re dealing with right this minute, in the next hour, tomorrow, or for a lifetime, make positive decisions to love, honor, and serve the Lord.

Moms, Grandmothers, Mentors … this monthly special devotional is a great tool for you to use to talk about God and His Word with your girl!

If the Lord allows you to live to enjoy such a birthday party, what do you want to have accomplished by the time you blow out the candles that represent 80 years of life?

Your answer to this question will indicate your desire to be a woman of character, a woman who is beautiful in God’s eyes. 

Would you be encouraged to know that God addresses success in the Bible? He does! In fact, He gives us a step-by-step plan for arriving at true success in our lives.

Beware of being a wife who has a “when-then” attitude, thinking, “When he does this—then I’ll do that.” This method might work some of the time, but when it does, what have you really gained? Your assignment from God is not to change your husband, but to love, follow, assist, and minister to him.

Talking with God daily is important to building a deeper relationship with Him. Perhaps you, like me, have had many stops and starts on the way to a vibrant prayer life.
