A Prayer for a Heavy Heart
Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30 ESV Father God, today my heart feels heavy. I feel…
A Prayer for When You Feel A Little Lost
A man’s steps are from the LORD; how then can man understand his way? Proverbs 20:24 ESV Father God, today I feel a little lost. If I’m honest, I’m not sure what the next step looks like for me. Would you show me your way? Would you guide my steps? Would you give me ears to…
A Prayer for the Racing Mind
So here’s what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life—your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life—and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. Don’t become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into…
Takeaway Tuesdays: Romans 15:13
If you are feeling a little low on hope (don’t we all go through these moments, or even seasons?!) let me encourage you: God is filled with hope. He also is a lover of joy and peace. Whatever circumstance you find yourself in today, I want to let you know that if you are feeling…
Takeaway Tuesdays: Lamentations 2:19
The month of August is just about coming to a close. It’s been a pleasant month here in the valley in Oregon—not too many overly hot days. I’ve been enjoying the fun summer months. Despite all the glorious attributes of summer, I still have many people in my life walking through seasons of suffering. Suffering…
Takeaway Tuesdays: Proverbs 31:25
Hi friends! It’s hard to believe that the year is half over! I am squeaking in this post late on the last Tuesday in June. What has God been teaching you? Showing you? Do you feel closer to Him, with 6 months of 2019 under your belt? I know that 6 months of The Bible…
Takeaway Tuesdays: Psalm 139:1-6
I’m squeezing in at the last moment of May to share this free print with you my friends. I loved reading this Psalm the other night. I was challenged to memorize it when I was in high school, and these verses tend to sink in and marinate when I read them. God knows all the…
Takeaway Tuesdays: Psalm 84:10
Friends, it’s hard to believe April is coming to a close. If you were curious, I’m still reading through and listening to the Bible Recap, and enjoying it (even if I’m currently in 1 Chronicles). Thankfully, there are a few Psalms sprinkled in chronologically. One of the Psalms that I loved reading was Psalm 84:10,…
Takeaway Tuesdays: Joshua 1:8
I’m currently on Spring Break, meaning this post is a day late! It’s really Wednesday, not Tuesday. But hopefully you won’t mind this free print being a day late. I’m still really enjoying The Bible Recap podcast and reading along through the Old Testament. I’m fully surprised and encouraged at the breadth and depth of…
