Five Tips for Trusting God When You are Sick
Each of us will go through trials in our life. There’s no hiding from it and there’s no getting around it. I’ve heard the saying many times that ‘either you are in a trial now, you’ve just come out of a trial, or you’re getting ready to go into a trial.’ Sickness is a common trial many people face in their lives. Either you or someone you care about will be seriously ill during this life. Maybe the suffering from this disease has already started. Trusting God when you are sick can be EXTREMELY hard to do! There are a lot of questions going through your mind. You’re probably doubting…

Why is the Fruit of the Spirit Important for Christians?
With so much negativity in the world around me, I think it’s important to focus on who God is calling me to be. So, I’ve spent the past few months working on my prayer life. I’ve also been studying ways to develop Godly character. One of the best ways I’ve learned to become more like God is by studying the Fruit of the Spirit. Galatians 5: 22-23 says, “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, gentleness, and self-control.” I think we can all agree that these are great characteristics to have. But, why is the fruit of the Spirit important to us as…

Showing God’s Love in a Hurting World
Growing up in a Christian home, I never thought much about God’s love. It’s not that I wasn’t taught about it. I was taught examples of God’s love every day from my family. In church, I learned tons of Bible stories and lessons showing God’s love. But in my head, all I thought about was trying to be ‘good’ enough to deserve Heaven. I decided for myself that my salvation was earned through my behavior. I tried and tried to be good enough, but I would trip up, make mistakes, and ultimately fail at it. Thankfully, I’ve learned over the years what it means to be a Christian. I’ve learned…

What to do When You’re Angry With God
I’m going to let you in on a little secret, I’m kind of angry with God right now. We’ve been dealing with some difficult issues, and I just can’t help feeling resentful at how unfair it is! Have you ever felt like that before? When your prayers aren’t answered the way you wanted. Or when bad things happen to someone you care about. It can be hard to NOT be mad at God during these times. I didn’t realize at first what was going on, but first I noticed my mood dropping into the gutter. I was snippy and emotional. Plus I was ugly to everyone around me. I…

How to Stop Selfishness
Okay, guys, I have a confession to make: I’m a selfish person. It’s not something I’m proud of, and I am not writing this post to get sympathy. God laid my selfishness on my heart a few weeks ago, and I’ve been thinking about it ever since. Some of you that know me, might be thinking I’m not that bad. Especially compared to some. Others are probably thinking, “It’s about time you figured it out!” If we’ve never met in person, you probably have no idea what I’m talking about. Don’t worry, you will soon haha… Looking Good on the Outside On the outside, I may look pretty good. I…
