Faith

These are unprecedented times for us, but God was not surprised by the coronavirus. His Word gives us the guidance we need to get through these times. Sometimes even familiar stories can teach us a new lesson.

Sometimes I have a hard time believing that Jesus can truly relate to my stay-at-home-mom life. Then I started studying the book of Mark…

I wanted to know what Advent really meant, so I took a look and found out I had been lying to my kids. Oops.

Turns out, Advent is all about eagerly waiting for Jesus. A time to focus on getting to know Him better.

However you choose to celebrate with your family, I think the point is that we are spending time each day focusing on who God is and what He has done.

I may feel out of place and like I’m getting it all wrong, but God created me. He knows what he’s doing. He doesn’t mess up. The truth of who God is is bigger than my feelings of insecurity – I get things wrong, but He doesn’t.

We’ve all had times where we feel like no one notices us at all. It’s not a new problem – we find it as far back as Genesis. But when we encounter God and realize that He sees us, we can’t help but be transformed.

The creator defines the creation. Our identity is not based in our behavior, but in our creator. Let yourself believe that you are who God says you are. He created you, so he’s the only one who has a say in the matter
