Ask, Seek, Knock
Have you ever asked God, “What do You want me to do?” I know I have a lot. And when asking guidance from others, I get advice about ‘how’ to hear Him or what they say to do. Often times, I get the answer of “you need to pray” or “just read the Bible.” ToContinue reading “Ask, Seek, Knock”

Proverbs 25:11-14
I have been reading through Proverbs over the past year, and there have been some amazing insights that God has revealed to me. I have to admit, I did not like some of those insights because they convicted me in some areas of my life that I did not want to admit to. There wasContinue reading “Proverbs 25:11-14”

It has been a very trying time in this house. There have been a number of issues that have to be worked out soon. However, I am tired. Oh so tired!
