Today’s church service was about something so simple, yet so powerful. God wants you. Not your achievements.Not your good behavior.Not your offerings.Not what you can give Him.He wants you. One verse that my pastor really focused on was 2 Corinthians 12:14, where Paul says:“I do not seek what is yours, but you.” That reflects theContinue reading “He Wants Me”

I’ve been sitting with 1 Corinthians 13 lately… not just reading it, but really letting it search me. And the more I sit with it, the more I realize love isn’t what I thought it was. God says love is patient. And if I’m honest… I’m not always patient. I get frustrated. I want thingsContinue reading “This Is Love”

With Easter coming up, I can’t help but think about this. There were three crosses that day. Not one. Not just Jesus alone. Three. And I think sometimes we rush past that detail… but it matters more than we realize. Because Jesus wasn’t just crucified. He was placed in the middle. On one side, aContinue reading “Between Two Crosses”

There’s a kind of impact that isn’t loud. It doesn’t demand attention. It doesn’t force its way into the room. But it changes everything. Jesus didn’t call us to be impressive, successful, or even understood. He called us to be salt and light. Two simple things that quietly transform everything they touch. Salt: The HiddenContinue reading “Salt and Light: The Quiet Influence”

There’s a quiet fear that lingers in the back of my mind sometimes… What if I’m not enough? Not enough for the life I want. Not enough for the calling God has placed on me. Not enough for the kind of love I pray for. And if I’m being honest… sometimes that thought feels louderContinue reading “Not Enough”

For the past three weeks, my church has been walking through a series on strongholds. It’s been confronting in the best way. A stronghold is a lie or mindset that sets itself up against God’s truth and gains influence over how we think, feel, and act. It’s not just a bad habit, it’s a fortifiedContinue reading “Strongholds”

This past Saturday, I heard a story about an elephant that had been tied to a post for most of its life. Over time, the rope was removed, but the elephant stayed right where it was. Not because it couldn’t leave, but because it didn’t realize it was free. That image has stayed with me.Continue reading “Free, But Afraid to Move”

There are seasons when my soul feels thirsty in a way I don’t quite know how to explain. Not for answers. Not even for joy. Just… for God. Lately, I’ve been sitting in that quiet ache… the kind that longs for closeness, reassurance, and something steady to hold onto. And in that space, Psalm 42Continue reading “When the Soul is Thirsty”

It’s easy to love the ones who love us back. But what about the people who hurt us, gossip about us, reject us, or even hate us? That’s where love becomes more than a word, it becomes a calling. Jesus said in Matthew 5:44, “But I say to you, love your enemies and pray forContinue reading “When They Hate, We Love”
