The Remedy of Salvation

There is always endless beauty to be discovered as the seasons truly begin to turn; to me, nothing is prettier than those wild and wonderful West Virginia fall months.

As much as I am loving change at the moment, I'll admit that I'm just the same as everyone else. We can all be such creatures of habit. However, it can be quite the interesting experience to uncover an all new way of living. 

While in the process of placing this message together, I couldn't help but think of those who are finding themselves to be helplessly empty; those who are in desperate need of the remedy of salvation.

So many in our world today are experiencing deep-rooted devastation in the midst of an aimless search for purposeful fulfillment and a place of rest for their weary souls.

Those temporal sort of remedies that exist in the world will never reach down below the surface of the heart; none of them could ever provide the sort of peace that radiates from within.

Only Jesus has the power to do that. The condition of your heart is never surprising to Him. 

It's scarily simple to appear all put together on the outside, while living in the midst of chaos behind closed doors.

There's always an opportunity for a new beginning through trusting in the remedy of salvation; by placing every ounce of your faith and trust in Jesus Christ.

There are so many who are reluctant about living the Christian life; lamenting that they won't be good enough to live it, or that surrendering their current lifestyle would be much too difficult.

Knowing Jesus and living for Him is never about being good enough. He loves you in spite of your mess and He wants nothing more than to help you claim victory. 

We all need Him each and every single day.

Life was never meant to be lived without the sort of love and guidance that only He can provide, and choosing to do so will leave you with an existence that's both imbalanced and uncomfortable in the long run.

You will be left as someone who spends every day feeling completely unsatisfied and terminally empty.

Making the decision to trust in Jesus will be the best choice you will ever make. He will completely change your life in the most beautiful way.

All you have to do is ask Him into your heart. Let your life become one that is worth living. Make it count for the cause of Christ. 


"For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it." (Matthew 16:25)

"For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Romans 10:13)

"But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart." (1 Samuel 16:7)

The Source of Everlasting Strength

"Life may try to weigh you down, but never let it wear you out." I love that the Lord placed that particular phrase on my heart while thinking about how certain circumstances in our lives can become truly overwhelming. I never enjoy shining a light on all that I face physically, but I will today because it fits well within the message.  Many of you may remember that I experienced COVID last September; as a result, I have dealt with lasting fatigue that carries no reasonable medical explanation, although I am absolutely certain that  living with both cerebral palsy and PCOS may play a significant role. It's now difficult to exert any amount of energy at all. Completing even the tiniest of tasks often feels the same as climbing Mount Everest. Some of those days it seems as if everything weighs me down and wears me out. (writing honestly) I know many who struggle with SO much more than I do. I know I'm never alone in that battle. Maybe you're experiencing one of thos...

Molly's Morning Thoughts: Are You Inviting Jesus In Or Shutting Him Out?

  A Word From Molly : I'm a little late on sharing a thought from yesterday morning but I couldn't go without giving it a place on the blog. I love that the Lord put this on my heart to write because it is SO true. I may turn this into a new blog segment, we shall see, but I hope this speaks to your heart as much as it did mine. Molly's Zone will celebrate its 10th birthday on Monday and I still feel so blessed to have the opportunity to write for Jesus. Molly's Zone has been a little quiet (life has been quite interesting lately) but I cannot wait to share more all throughout the month of September.  I woke up early this morning thinking about something that the Lord placed on my heart I LOVE podcasts & decided to try something new on Spotify the other day & listened to an episode about God's power in the midst of impossible situations and it got me wondering: How often are we guilty of attempting to take on a situation that is too much for us to handl...

For The Messy Heart

Does anyone else actually enjoy cleaning their house or is it just me? When my mother was still working, my absolute favorite chore was laundry. (It may have taken me seven business days to put away my clothes, but I lived for washing, drying, and folding everything.) Adulting is never easy and keeping the rooms of your house clean can be quite overwhelming---especially for those who have everything going on all at once. It does seem as if there's never enough time in the day, doesn't it? Have you ever wanted to take on a "deep cleaning" project only to find that you are completely lost on where to start first? Maybe you've said "oh, I'll do it another day" because you couldn't find the courage or the confidence to face it all head-on.  As the clutter continues to build up and around you, the mess only brings about stress, anxiety, and darkening depression. Living in the midst of a mess will never bring you joy.  This analogy brings us right into...
