  I love reading blogs. I always take away something from them. Last week, I stumbled upon a post that really made think. It was about what the definition of a good and true friend really is. There's a big difference between making time for a friend versus having the time for them. Do you truly make the time for those you care about? Making time for someone is so special. It shows how much you care for them and it will always mean more than you know. Life is crazy busy at times, and it's not always possible to have a full fledged conversation with someone and when you're older, responsibilities come first. But it takes less than ten seconds to send a message to let someone know you're thinking of them. It doesn't even need to be a grand gesture. Maybe a funny GIF or a "hey there" kind of reminder. Or... Maybe you've been at your day job and you've continuously witnessed  a close co-worker who's struggling just to make it through t...

Nothing shall be impossible with God, yet nothing will ever be possible without Him.  This thought popped into my head the other night, and I couldn't help but think of how true that statement actually is.  I think this message applies to so many as it is really hard to ask for help when you need it.  There always seems to be a tug of war in the mind about what to do when faced with certain situations.  You know in your heart what's best but choosing to do everything in your own power so often comes first. The idea of having limitations in this life is never easily accepted.  Those unchangeable circumstances are without a doubt some of the most frustrating.  But the truth is that your capabilities can and will only take you so far.  Every bit of strength that you need in this life will always be found in the power of His presence. Self sufficiency is the common goal of adulthood, but it is never the answer.  Because there will always be those situ...

  Have you ever needed to complete a task but couldn't find the motivation to do it? I have easily lost whole afternoons by either choosing to look down at the ever-evolving craziness of my newsfeed or by simply  sitting and watching what's going on outside my dining room window while drifting deeper into thought.  It's not unusual to become unmotivated  during times of difficulty or uncertainty. It's natural for our hearts to lose strength  when the going gets tough. It may even seem easier to try and hide away from it all. In writing this today, my greatest reason for sliding in this thought on apathy is to  encourage others to continue pressing forward for the cause of Christ. Because there are countless souls that  still need Him. Those that are lost and in search of something more than life on Earth could ever offer them. You may very well be the only chance that someone has to learn about Jesus and the power of His saving grace. Whenever ...

What comes to mind when you think of Easter?  The world has painted a longstanding commercialized picture of what this holiday truly represents; so many lose sight of its significance in the presence of chocolate bunnies and colorful Easter eggs. The world has become a raging cesspool of darkness that becomes deeper and more evident with each passing moment. But I am thankful for Easter, and feel blessed to celebrate Jesus on His resurrection day.  That's what Easter is all about. I can't imagine what must have been going through His mind as He was enduring crucifixion on the cross. The pain that He must have felt. The great love He had for all of humanity. The priority that He made us to be in His heart as He was dying.   Those are precious thoughts for our hearts to meditate on as we celebrate on this Sunday.  Jesus died for you and me on that cross, taking the payment for all of our sins so that we may have eternal life with Him one day in Heaven. He bestowed...
