What I Know to be True
Good morning and welcome to making space Monday. This blog is written for the purpose of helping us make space for God. Not sure how you found us here but glad you did! Today I want to share what has been on my heart this past week: There are a few things we know to […]
God Looks at the Heart
But now your kingdom will not endure; the Lord has sought out a man after his own heart and appointed him a leader of his people, because you have not kept the Lord’s command. I Samuel 13:14 The Lord looks down from heaven on the sons of men to see if there are any […]
Why Me?
Sometimes I ask myself the question: ” Why me Lord?” Why do I have to forgive when I have been wronged? Why do I have to do something for someone else when I am so busy? Why do I have to be kind when someone has been unkind to me? The questions are endless and […]
Promises Received by Faith
Then they asked him, “What must we do to do the works God requires?” John 6:28 God’s promises are true and He is the Promise Keeper. Hebrews 10 tells us that He who promised is faithful.

Light of the World

New Year Goals

Unwavering Faith
Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed and so became the father of many nations, just as it had been said to him, “So shall your offspring be.” Without weakening in his faith, he faced the fact that his body was about a hundred years old – and that Sarah’s womb was also dead. Yet […]
