Whenever my faith journey is feeling a little stale, I pick up a book that I purchased several years ago; “In God’s Name, Wisdom from the World’s Great Spiritual Leaders” by Jules and Gedeon Naudet.

Sometimes I get busy, so distracted that I forget what's really important. I don't mean to - it's just that life happens. Grocery store trips need to be made, kids need to get to school and practices, meals need to be cooked, relationships need to be tended, jobs need to be worked, and 8-hours of sleep is the goal. But guess what? The Bible gives grace for even the busy times:

In today’s society, it can be incredibly difficult to discern what’s true and what’s not—especially when it comes to the media and social media. Headlines are often misleading, designed to evoke fear or strong emotions just to generate clicks, rather than to convey accurate information. On social media, we’re constantly exposed to videos or posts that can give a false impression—whether it’s promoting a product as the best on the market or showcasing someone’s vacation as picture-perfect.

If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.

John 15:4 – “Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself unless it abides in the vine, neither can you unless you abide in me.”

“OH GIVE THANKS TO THE LORD, FOR HE IS GOOD, FOR HIS STEADFAST LOVE ENDURES FOREVER!” -PSALM 107:1

I Leave All things to God's Direction 1 I leave all things to God's direction; he loves me both in joy and woe.

He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end. Ecclesiastes 3:11 NIV

God’s beautiful plan for redemption is kind of like a beautiful puzzle and each piece of the puzzle represents the life of a believer. On its own, that puzzle piece might be very beautiful, have a lot of pretty colors, or parts of an image, but the real beauty of that piece is not revealed until it is combined with the pieces around it to make the puzzle whole.

1 Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.

I’ll be the first to admit it- February and March seem to be the most challenging months for me.

Do you ever feel like you’re alone? You may be in the middle of a crowd or actually physically alone, but both situations can leave us feeling alone or lonely.
