Adaptation from John Knox’s Lit...
This confession of sin is one of my favorites. I had to find it and journal it so I wouldn’t forget it.
Almighty God, we are unworthy to come into your presence, because of our many sins. We do not deserve any grace or mercy from you, if you dealt with us as we deserve. We have sinned against you, O Lord, and we have offended you. [...]
The Precious Little Things
My favorite days are days that are not so jam packed that I can sit back and enjoy the blessings around me.
Our Fall break starts out just like that.
After getting SUPERB reports from both kids teachers at Parent Teacher Conference on Thursday I realize how blessed we are this year to have such great teachers for our precious kids. Both te [...]
Temptation
One thing I enjoy about walking on the treadmill is that it is my time to catch up on my Alistair Begg Podcasts.
His sermons are all so convicting and thought provoking. I have been listening to the sermon “When Tempted” from his series on James. I have listened to it a few times and each time I tell myself I need to jot down no [...]
Seeing Life through the Eyes of Chris...

Kip and I had accepted the fact that we were not going to have [...]
Shield of Victory
Throughout history Christians have come under attack, not only from their peers and leaders, but more fiercely from Satan. He does not like having his territory threatened, or to see us growing God’s Kingdom.
We see this in the sufferings of God’s people every day.
Sometimes as we witness all of this suffering Satan will cast fear [...]
Trainin’ Up a Boy! (Random Thou...
Being a mom of a young boy is such a joy, (I am truly blessed to experience both). However, not growing up with boys in my family, I have to admit I was a little nervous. But, in my journey through motherhood, I have learned to fully rely on God. He truly equips us for all that he puts before us.
The other life lesson that I have always be [...]
Many May Blessings
Some days when you think you just cannot make it through the day, life gives you a reality check.
1. I am so grateful that my children have chosen good, respectful friends at school.
2. I am equally grateful that they have had great teachers this year.
3. I am blessed beyond belief for the husband that I have, who loves us and provides for [...]
