“God is good to me, even when life doesn’t feel good to me.”

A woman who is careful with her words is a gift to all who know her.

Today, let’s set our minds and hearts on feeling more thankful for what we are than guilty for what we’re not. Let’s cut the threads of guilt with grace.

Spending some time getting quiet can really be the best remedy for tangled situations. Taking a step back from all the emotion, frustration, and exhaustion to sit quietly with Jesus will do more to untangle a mess than anything else I’ve ever found.

You’ve never gone too far that God can’t redeem you, restore you, forgive you, and give you a second chance.

You have the exact qualities God knew your kids would need in a mother. Each day, hold up your willingness and ask God to make you the best version of you that you can possibly be.

Today, let’s be determined to see blessings in the midst of things that seem like burdens.

It’s not my perfect performance that captures God’s attention. It’s my complete dependence on Him that He notices.

God is mighty. God is caring. God is worthy of praise. God is loving. God is able. God is in control. Nothing takes God by surprise. Some sweet reminders to soak in before falling asleep tonight.

Not reaching back for what was lost in my yesterdays. And not reaching for what I hope will be in my tomorrow. But living fully with what is right in front of me. And truly seeing the gift of this moment.

This life is not about me. It’s about joining hands with Jesus to fulfill whatever tasks He sets before me and to share His love with all He brings my way.

It is a rare and beautiful thing when we choose to offer love in situations when most people would choose to scorn or ignore.

Raw emotions – anger, frustration, bitterness, resentment – are the feelings we tend to hide from people we want to impress but spew on those we love the most.

When to give grace? I’d rather stand before God knowing I loved others too much rather than regretting that I judged too harshly.

Remember who you are. Don’t compromise for anyone, for any reason. You are a child of the Almighty God. Live that truth.

Nothing done with the focus on God is ever a waste of time.

We were made for more than compromise. We were made for God’s promises in every area of our lives.

I feel your absence deeply within my heart because we are already, and almost apart.

To write a tragedy, a man must feel the tragedy. To feel tragedy, a man must be aware of the world in which he lives. Not only with his mind, but with his blood and sinews.

Your feelings are valid they are yours, you can have them.

And when I don’t utter a word, that is when I feel the most.

I do not feel ready to plant my roots on this earth without first drinking the water from the rivers of the world.

There is so much inside of me I feel as if I will be writing forever.

Do you know, one of the greatest problems of our age is that we are governed by people who care more about feelings than they do about thoughts and ideas?

Make sure the burden you feel is the one you chose to keep.
