What If the Most Important Part of Your Day Is How You Start It?
"Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed." -Mark 1:35 NIV There are so many posts and videos out there where folks are talking about their morning routine. And not without good reason. We all have some sort of a routine in the morning and I wanted to shine a light on how [...]
They Will Know We Are Christians…By Our Love?
"A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you...by this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another" -John 13:34-35 The title of this post is a song lyric I remember from way back. It’s been running through my head lately. Mostly because it feels like some of us Christians have been having a [...]
The God Who Holds the Stars
"When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, what is mankind that you are mindful of them, human beings that you care for them?" -Psalm 8:3-4 NIV As long as I can remember, I’ve been fascinated by space and the moon. The Apollo missions wrapped up when I was just a baby, but growing up in their shadow, [...]
Why sin is such a BIG DEAL
“Temptation comes from our own desires, which entice us and drag us away. These desires give birth to sinful actions. And when sin is allowed to grow, it gives birth to death.” -James 1:14-15 NLT Fun topic today…sin! You don’t want to talk about it? Or even think about it? I get it, because sin has become a bad, dirty word. People would rather believe it doesn't exist (or is somehow a man-made construct) rather than [...]
How can I know God loves me?
“But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners” -Romans 5:8 NLT I used to think that I had to be perfect for God to love me and hear my prayers. This may sound ridiculous, and it’s a bit impossible, but by gosh, I was going to try! After all, the relentless perfectionist in me was always chasing after perfection in all things, faith included. [...]
A little bit of truth…and a whole lotta lies
Are you like me? Do you find living in THIS world so confusing?! Sitting is the New Smoking? 50 is the new 30 (uh…I highly doubt that!). And then there's the concept of a "humble brag" – how can something be both humble and a brag at the same time? Not sure that’s even possible. I certainly can’t explain any of the above, but when it comes to more serious matters, confusion is part of the Enemy’s plan. When [...]
God is Still Good
"The Lord is good to everyone. He showers compassion on all his creation." - Psalm 145:9 (NLT) Have you ever had a tornado of adversity; of loss, grief, sickness, financial ruin, addiction, or any other emotional turmoil hit your life? In the midst of all you are struggling with, do you wonder if God is still good? I know I have. And sometimes not when I would have expected it. You see, I was diagnosed with breast cancer 6 [...]
Hi there! I’m Pam, a graphic designer and big fan of God’s best designs…namely pine trees, lakes, flowers, sunrises and all things Space. You can argue those with me later, but I’m pretty sure those are his best works. I’m happiest if I’m spending time with my family & friends and if we happen to be hiking or kayaking in Lake Tahoe, well then, all the better! I don’t find clowns funny but do find humor in my dog Barkley’s daily antics and in witty banter with friends…just not at the same time. I love Jesus and sharing Him with others and wouldn’t want it any other way.
