All. Over. The. Place.
Hard circumstances and jostling emotions can lead us to believe that we are too much to be around and that we have little to offer.
Today, I dive into some verses from 1 Peter to see what he has to say to a bunch of seemingly traumatized folks about what they can expect as followers of Jesus. I pray this will be a resounding message of truth for your heart.
Need something refreshing? Join me in Psalm 145 to be reminded of God’s goodness and sustaining gifts.
What feelings surface for you if I say the word “rest?” Do you feel panic because you just don’t have time for it? How about great anticipation because you are desperately in need of it?
Rest is not just about sleeping or idleness, so join me in Hebrews 4 today to see how rest can impact our lives in a way that positively impacts the world around us!
“Am I filled with the Holy Spirit?”
I have days filled with the Holy Spirit and others where I have grieved and quenched Him. The Holy Spirit is a very big deal, so I don’t want us to go a single day apart from what He has to offer.
In today’s post I share a vulnerable confession as well as a very practical step to igniting rather than quenching the Holy Spirit in order to experience both individually and collectively as the body of Christ what He has promised.
Who is that person in your life that consistently reminds you of God’s awesomeness?
Carolyn, whom I met through the Red House Writer’s Collective, definitely checks that box for me!
Her love and faith in God are SO contagious. She is an accomplished writer and speaker… and, did I mention, she is blind? May Carolyn’s life be a testimony to each of us – that the love, grace and power of God has absolutely no limits despite our perspective of insurmountable circumstances.
Allow Carolyn Dale Newell and her amazing guide dog, Iva, to steal your heart and encourage you through today’s devotion. I am so grateful for her willingness to share her time and talents with us.
Enjoy!
