Why It’s So Important To Memorize Scripture

I know memorizing Scripture can be hard. It’s intimidating, and it’s a hard habit to not only implement but stick to. To be honest with you, this is a discipline I know I have plenty of room to grow in, but one I want to grow in desperately. When I have taken the time to memorize Scripture, it’s been incredible to see the different instances when God has brought His Words to the forefront of my mind when I’ve needed them most. I want to have more experiences like that. And friend, I want you to have more experiences like that, too.

10 Verses For When You're Looking For Peace

Peace is something we all crave, but a lot of times I don’t think we realize it’s peace that we’re looking for. We feel uneasy. We feel tired. We worry. We wonder. We wrestle with unrest. We are juggling all the things that are the opposite of peace.

What Is God Putting On Your Heart?

I’ve been going back through a lot of my old journals recently, and as I flipped through the pages yesterday, I stumbled upon an entry from early 2022. I had decided first thing that morning to get up and go for a walk, which wasn’t something I normally did, but apparently, I needed to get some fresh air and spend some time outside - away from my phone, away from work, away from all the things that were overwhelming and demanding.

10 Verses For When You Feel Far From God

In my 20+ years of following Jesus, I’ve learned that it’s inevitable to go through seasons where you feel far from God. Even though I know He is always there, even though I know He never leaves me, and even though I know He doesn’t distance Himself from me, there have been more than a few times where it felt like I was distant from God.

How To Start Reading Your Bible

While this gift of God’s Word is nothing short of amazing, I also realize the Bible can seem pretty intimidating. It’s a big book. There’s a lot going on within its pages, and there are a whole bunch of names that are practically impossible to pronounce. Because of all that, it can be difficult to know where to start when it comes to reading and studying your Bible. But that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t read it all.

For The One Who Is Waiting

If you’ve been reading my writing for any amount of time, you know that a pretty common topic I write about is waiting. And that’s not because I like to wait. I write about waiting because waiting is just about as universal as breathing for us as humans. We’re always waiting on something, no matter what season we’re in.
