5h ago7:36

7:36

"We can let life’s hurdles and hardships be like arrows pointing us deeper to the heart of Jesus. Imagine Jesus leaning in close and saying, Yes, in all things my Father works for the good of those who love Him. (Romans 8:28) Yes, daughters, do not grow weary or lose heart. I endured the cross so you can endure whatever you face. (Hebrews 12:1-3) Y…

Rachel Marie Kang: Want to Know How She Does It? She Listens to the Holy Spirit 8:05

1d ago8:05

8:05

"The Holy Spirit is how we will do every hard and holy thing. There won’t always be a roadmap or guidebook giving all the right answers. There won’t be writing on the wall or a blueprint mapping out the intricate details of God’s plans and promises. But . . . there will always, still, ever and only be the Holy Spirit. He, my dear friends, is how we…

3d ago6:09

"God’s design for community didn’t stop at church attendance. He designed us to need each other.

Tasha Jun: We Are Made Free to Love, Not Judge 5:53

7d ago5:53

5:53

"Jesus said, ‘"Love the Lord your God with all your passion and prayer and intelligence." This is the most important, the first on any list. But there is a second to set alongside it: "Love others as well as you love yourself."These two commands are pegs; everything in God’s Law and the Prophets hangs from them.' Matthew 22:34-40 The Message Instea…

Melissa Zaldivar: Is the Playlist of Your Life Building Up or Destroying? 7:32

8d ago7:32

7:32

"Will I use my words and my presence to build or to destroy? Yes, we are all responsible for our own feelings and reactions and responses, but as sisters, we also belong to one another. The Bible tells us in Ephesians 4 that we are members of one body and that even though we have different parts, we all come together for one purpose. I wonder what …

Simi John: Don’t Let Old Jeans Make You Keep Looking Back 5:05

9d ago5:05

5:05

"Often the “glory days” or the “good ol’ days” make it hard to find contentment in the present. It’s hard to step into an unknown future when we live in the comfort of yesterday’s memories. Friend, God’s not done with you. He isn’t disappointed that you’re different today than you were ten years ago. He wants you just the way you are, right now — c…

Kaitlyn Bouchillon: Morning Will Come, but God Won’t Leave in the Night 6:58

10d ago6:58

6:58

"Scripture is clear: darkness exists. But the repeated promise remains: we won’t face the night alone. It may seem like we’ve been waiting for morning for a very long time, but we have not been left behind or lost, forgotten or abandoned. His eyes remain on us, His presence ever with us, no matter how deep or long or dark the night. One day not too…

Jen Schmidt: Celebrate Good Times, Come On! 7:15

13d ago7:15

7:15

"Celebration cultivates joy. Joy harnesses hope. Hope renews your soul. Dance, feast, hope, rest, laugh, worship. Celebration looks different for everyone, but Christians should be an alleluia from head to foot, as Saint Augustine reminds us. Yet often, we aren't known for fun and celebration. I desire to be known as a joy giver. This isn’t an inst…

Ligia Andrade: Overcome Rejection and Remember Who God Says You Are 6:41

14d ago6:41

6:41

"We will likely encounter things we may never fully understand or find answers to. Pain and heartbreak can be so intense and profound that, at times, we feel like we can't move forward. We may even feel like the world would be better off without us. I have been in that place, my friend, and I understand what you are going through. However, I can al…

Holley Gerth: If You Ever Ask, “Shouldn’t I Be Farther Along by Now?” 6:46

15d ago6:46

6:46

"Our great and tender God is not trying to force you to maximize your life. His rhythm is one of love and grace at a pace that won’t destroy your soul. He’s not asking you to try harder or do more. He spoke the world into being — what trouble does He ever have with His to-do list? You are not doing anything wrong if it seems like it is taking a lon…

5:27

Our circumstances are all different but we can all agree that life is hard. Relationships are complex and brokenness comes in a thousand different shapes and shades. Thankfully, God doesn't leave us to figure it out or fumble through alone. His wisdom, joy, guidance, and strength are available to us right now, right where we are. And we want to exp…

Barb Roose: God's Cure for Negative Thinking 7:42

20d ago7:42

7:42

"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. For all of the blessings and miracles that God had done, He knew that the Israelites were prone to forgetfulness. We forget, too. It's so easy to focus on what is missing, broken, or changed in our lives that we for…

Tyra Rains: Patient Endurance Is What You Need Now 7:19

21d ago7:19

7:19

"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. The older I get, the harder it’s become to pretend to be what I’m not, and the more I recognize (and try not to rebel against) who God made me to be. And God …

"God’s plans for our lives are invincible when we stay connected to Him. Let’s cling to God’s promises. Hold tight to His heart. Have strong roots that burrow deep into His affection for us. We will not falter. We will not fail. We will not lead a barren life at any age. Psalm 92:14 CSB says, “They will still bear fruit in old age, healthy and gree…

"There is only One whose sacrifice purchased a freedom we can’t lose. Today I honor the lives of men and women who lost their lives in war, not just in the United States but around the world.

Robin Dance: If You Feel Like You're Failing in Your Faith 7:26

29d ago7:26

7:26

"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. Raw emotion is not foreign to the pages of Scripture. In the Psalms, we see David pouring out his heart before God, expressing his anger, confusion, and lament. In the midst of intense su…

Aliza Latta: When You Keep Praying But Nothing Is Changing 6:27

1M ago6:27

6:27

"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…

Simi John: Would Would It Look Like to Go in God's Authority? 6:03

1M ago6:03

6:03

"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. We shy away from opportunities, conversations, and tables where God invites us to go because we don’t feel equipped. But if He calls you, you are not going in your own strength, wisdom, or authority. You are going in His name and H…

"You are the daughter God intentionally and uniquely formed, and He rejoices extravagantly over you. Joy just might be found when you release whatever you're gripping and remember that you’ve already been found. And then you can decide that if there’s not a safe place to engage Christ-centered joy, you’ll give yourself permission to form it for you…

"God is always, always listening, and always, always still writing the story. God is the same God in my dreamy girls’ weekend away as He was in my sadness and solitude. God is the same God in our abundance as He is in our lack. It’s quite a truth to wrestle with. I see so much beauty and purpose in the slow answering of my good desire for good frie…

"What would it look like to model 'not knowing?' In a culture obsessed with how-tos and telling others what to do, and in a society obsessed with accolades, levels, awards, and markers of "intelligence," what would it look like if we lived with deep concern and care for how we made others feel, instead of concern over what we know and who knows mor…

"The word "helper" in Hebrew (ezer) does not imply subordination but rather a partnership. I had been taught that God created Eve as a "helper" for Adam (Genesis 2:18). But what I had not been taught was that the word "helper" in Hebrew (ezer) does not imply subordination but rather a partnership. In fact, ezer is the same noun used in Psalm 33:20 …
