It’s How We Finish That Matters
When we trust God to train us and sustain us, He will transform us from the inside out. We’ll never be the same again. We will rise above real life to victory. Continue reading
Fabulous or Foolish?
Some people think faith is foolish because they can’t understand it. Before I knew Jesus, I thought people who talked about Him were crazy. Truly loco! Continue reading
Do We Limit God?

Who is Looking for You?

Here I Am, But Send Someone Else!

The Beauty of Baptism–Our New Threads
Have you ever seen someone get baptized? What does it mean? I’ve watched baptisms at various churches and each one is different. Some baptize babies and others baptize people who have accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior. Some baptize
Memories of the Holy Land
Have you ever wondered what it would have been like to live back in the day of Moses or Jesus? Besides thinking it would be hard to not shower or to wear cute shoes in the sand, imagine if we
In Her Own Words… Angela
My name is Angela and this is my story…. Ever notice how sometimes God gives us a warning of what’s coming so that it’s not quite such a shock? This has happened to me more times than I can count,
The Power of Belief
What is something you believe is true without a shadow of a doubt? How do you know? Usually we know something is true based on personal experience. I’m helping a friend of mine train for her first half-marathon. Each week
FPP Triathlon For The Soul
Have you ever watched athletes compete in a triathlon? It’s a test of physical and mental stamina with three parts: Swim–Bike–Run, in that order. A Sprint Triathlon has the shortest distances and can often be completed in less than 90
The Worst 4-Letter Word Of All
Did you ever have your mouth washed out with soap for speaking a 4-letter word? I don’t know if parents still do this. It used to be that a parent would “wash” the filthy words out of their kid’s mouth
How Beautiful Are Your Feet?
Are your feet beautiful? They say beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, but does that go for feet as well? There are some feet that you know are cute–like baby feet. And there are some feet that should
Believing In God In A World Gone Mad–#2
Yesterday I shared about my conversation with a friend who’s an atheist. He doesn’t believe in God. My friend and I began our discussion by talking about whether or not God exists. Then he moved on to the obstacles preventing
Believing In God In A World Gone Mad–#1
I talked to a friend of mine recently who’s an atheist. He doesn’t believe that God exists. Every couple of months we have a discussion about the new “theories” of science or what atheist leaders are saying about creation and
A Room Full of Secrets
Have you ever walked into a room full of people knowing you didn’t want to be there? Maybe it was a work conference and you longed to be back home with your family. Maybe people were talking about things you
Yes You Can!
What is something you want to do, but you’re just not sure you can? I would venture to say that we all have at least one thing. It could be related to testing our limits. Like skydiving, bungee jumping, or
Who Are You Following?
Who do you follow? The truth is that on any given day, we follow a lot of people. We follow friends on Facebook. We follow celebrities on Twitter. We follow fast cars in the fast lane going to work, and
Do We Limit God?
Typically I start each blog by asking a question. But if I start with today’s question, “Do we limit God?”, then today’s blog would go something like this: Do we limit God? Yes. May I pray? And that would be
Fabulous or Foolish?
Has anyone ever told you you’re crazy? If you’re like me, your family and friends may not use those exact words, but their shocked reactions tell it like it is. “You’re crazy!” It can be an honor really. We’re daring.
Be Careful What You Ask For
Do you make a list of things you’d like for Christmas so that family and friends can shop appropriately? It’s that time of year again, and making a list is a good idea. Especially if your family doesn’t appreciate your
It’s How We Finish That Matters
Who cares how we started? That’s what I want to say. No, this isn’t the normal way I start a blog, but today I’m in a fighting mood. Why? Because there are so many of us girls out there who
Who is Looking For You?
Have you ever been completely lost? I don’t mean just lost as in you don’t have the right driving directions to get to a new restaurant. I mean really lost––as in you’re alone in a foreign or isolated place and
Floating in the Dead Sea
Have you ever relaxed on a raft in a pool or the ocean? For me it’s the epitome of peacefulness. Feeling the warm sun, smelling the fresh breeze, floating softly as the stress just melts away. That’s the life. If
