"Celebration cultivates joy. Joy harnesses hope. Hope renews your soul. Dance, feast, hope, rest, laugh, worship.

I desire to be known as a joy giver. This isn’t an inst…

"If you've seen where God's goodness and grace have carried you through in the past, that same goodness and grace will meet you again.

It's so easy to focus on what is missing, broken, or changed in our lives that we for…

"The only thing that limits the Lord from working in my life is my lack of trusting Him. When we face circumstances that don't make any earthly sense, God doesn't want us to ask how. He wants us to say, “I don’t know how and I don’t have to know how, because my God is faithful and capable.” I needed to remember that the Lord is for me. If He is for…

"The world needs what you have to offer. We need the one and only you. I want to be so comfortable in my skin that I don’t over-analyze, sanitize, or hide who I am and what’s important to me.

"We have a profound, open-ended invitation to trust God and His promises. It is okay to question God's plan, to cry out in frustration, and to wrestle with doubt.

"Prayer isn’t about getting what we want; it’s about getting to know Jesus. When we pray, we are in the presence of our loving Father, learning more about who He is and who we are. Prayer always works because it always brings us into the life-changing presence of Jesus. Contrary to what we might feel, prayer isn’t pointless. I don’t know why some p…

"God's power is enough to see you through. Often when God calls us to something big we feel too small to carry it out.

You are going in His name and H…
