We serve a magnificent, all-powerful God. Nothing is too difficult for Him. Things that loom beyond our human realm of possibility become quite possible when the Almighty enters the scene. Unfortunately, most of us don’t live as though that’s true.
Hello, dear one. It’s been a while. Life has felt like a bit of a swirl lately. I wonder if you can relate. When things that once felt sure and certain begin to give way, you find yourself in unfamiliar territory. Unsure. Maybe a little unsafe. And it doesn’t feel great. Well, that’s where I’ve […]
And Mary said, “Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her. Luke 1:38 We all want to witness miracles. We want God to wow us with wonder like He did so many times in Scripture. And let’s be honest. We […]

He Himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By His wounds you have been healed. 1 Peter 2:24 I wept today.

Let your roots grow down into Him, and let your lives be built on Him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness.

Through Him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God. Romans 5:2 Grace can be a tricky thing.
