Pure in Heart
The very first verse I have ever memorized in the Bible is Matthew 5:8. It is one of the Beatitudes that Jesus gave in the Sermon on the Mount: Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God. I memorized this verse back when I was just starting to get closer to God.Continue reading “Pure in Heart”
Psalm 100
I have been reading through the book of Psalms and I recently read Psalm 100. This psalm is to give grateful praise to our Father. I think I am going to make it a point to memorize it. It is so rich, beautiful, and true. Honestly, a lot went through my mind when I wasContinue reading “Psalm 100”
God’s Help in the Past
It is no secret that at times we can become bummed, depressed, distressed, or just in a downer. This can be caused by many things, often of which are hard times. No, I am not just talking about financially, though for some it just maybe that. For others, it may be a hard time withContinue reading “God’s Help in the Past”
Bless the Lord
I find that it is important to tell God just how amazing he is. It is important to reflect with God on everything he has done, to recognize his greatness and goodness; to just praise him. Last night I did just that in prayer. It led me to wonder why. I wondered why he didContinue reading “Bless the Lord”
Why the Rush?
I have a scar that goes through my eyebrow. I have had it ever since I was 8. How I got it is not something cool or epic. In fact, when people ask me how I got it, I simply tell them, “the couch.” I normally do not go into detail after that either, partlyContinue reading “Why the Rush?”
Pray for Them
Let me ask you a question: How do you sincerely love other believers? When you pray, who are you talking to? Aren’t you talking to God who is omnipotent, omnipresent, and omniscient? God has unlimited power and can do anything; the Bible is proof of that. Also, I don’t know about you, but I haveContinue reading “Pray for Them”
Our Faith Affects Others
I am currently diving deeper into the four gospels, and I just started the book of Mark. I just finished chapter 2, and these verses stood out to me: “Some men came, bringing to him (Jesus) a paralyzed man, carried by four of them. Since they could not get him to Jesus because of theContinue reading “Our Faith Affects Others”
He is Saying Your Name
Jesus told his disciples on three different occasions that he was going to be killed and on the third day be raised to life. Like we all tend to do, the disciples never really seemed to hear the second part of what Jesus was saying, though. They automatically focused on the bad part, that JesusContinue reading “He is Saying Your Name”
What Are You So Afraid Of?
When I was a little girl, my dad would go on walks with my sister and me. There was this big dog we befriended on our walks; his name was Jasper. I remember always looking forward to seeing Jasper because he would bring us rocks, play fetch, and was just so sweet and cute! ButContinue reading “What Are You So Afraid Of?”
