We are Unique
Psalm 139:13-14 You alone created my inner being. You knitted me together inside my mother. I will give thanks to you because I have been so amazingly and miraculously made. Your works are miraculous, and my soul is fully aware of this. My husband loves to visit old mansions. He finds the uniqueness of its structure and architecture fascinating! Did you know that the design of each mansion or castle is unique, although it may appear similar to the viewers? But only the architecture and designer can determine how many bricks were laid, the type of bricks, or the structure. Yet, to us, everything seems the same. This principle applies to us as well. You and I were created unique…

There’s Joy in Everything
But those who wait upon God get fresh strength. They spread their wings and soar like eagles,They run and don’t get tired, they walk and don’t lag” Isaiah 40:31 MSG Helen Keller once said, “Everything has its wonders, even darkness, and silence..” I can’t imagine what it feels like not to see and be surrounded by darkness and silence. At some point in our journey through life, we have faced darkness in one form or another. I don’t know about you, but I’ve seen family and friends staying awhile and then moving on. I’ve experienced many ups and downs. I’ve even seen loved ones taken over with cancer. Some have lost the…

No Hay Lugar Mejor Que El Hogar
No Place Like Home) En el querido clásico infantil, “El mago de Oz”, el aburrimiento de Dorothy con la vida en la granja la lleva a la mente a desviarse a un lugar lejano, donde los sueños se hacen realidad. Gracias a un tornado de Kansas, su deseo se cumple. Sin embargo, el camino de ladrillos amarillos inevitablemente lleva a Dorothy por un camino hacia la decepción y el autodescubrimiento.

Forgiveness is a Choice
Why do you think it is so hard for us to overlook offenses and forgive those who have wronged us? Overlooking offenses is one of the biggest problems we face in our family. For generations, my family has been dealing with “forgiving but not forgetting.” But, unfortunately, many relationships have been broken because of our lack of overlooking offenses. When my parents got married, they chose to live with my grandmother. My Mom was an only child, so when she got married, my grandmother went to live with them. At that time, that seems to be a good idea. My parents worked, and my grandmother took care of us. However,…

Faith is not Works, but Trust
And Jesus said to him, “Go, your faith has made you well.” Immediately he regained his sight and began following Jesus along the road. Mark 10:52 NIV Have you ever asked yourself, “If only I had enough faith, God would listen to me? Have you ever had someone tell you-“You need to have more faith if you want God to move.” I often wondered if I had enough faith; perhaps God then would hear my prayers and heal my loved ones. The truth is, faith has nothing to do with works. Faith entails more than merely believing in something. Faith is living in a way that shows our trust in…

Set Apart For Such a Time as This
Don't think that you will escape the fate of all the Jews because you are in the king's palace. If you keep silent at this time, relief and deliverance will come to the Jewish people from another place, but you and your father's family will be destroyed. Who knows, perhaps you have come to your royal position for such a time as this." (Esther 4 CSBI love writing devotional-style content that inspires people to know Jesus and often get the opportunity to participate in challenges with my peers.
