March 1 • Spring Cleaning Your Soul
It’s about that time for spring cleaning. Time to go through our closets, attics, and garages to figure out what’s for keeps, what’s to give away, and what simply needs to be thrown away. It always amazes me how much stuff we have. And I never realize it until it’s time to clean. Honestly, any…

The enemy knows God’s Word, not because he desires to live it out, but to misuse it for his evil schemes and plans. When Jesus was tempted in the wilderness, the enemy misused the word of God to try to trick Jesus, and with each temptation, Jesus conquered the enemy’s attack, not just with the…

February 23 • Spiritual Nourishment
Many of us understand that what you eat determines how you grow. In the same way, what we feed our spirit determines how we grow spiritually. If we feed our flesh, we can stunt our spiritual growth. If we feed our spirit, we can flourish. Romans 8 explains it like this: “For those who live…

February 22 • Living a Surrendered Life

February 21 • Stretched to Capacity
Like many first-time moms, I was thrown into motherhood with no idea as to what I was doing. However, as challenging as early motherhood was, it was a breeding ground for spiritual growth.
