    You Are Redeemable

    - By 

    Did you know that? Do you believe it? Up until this moment, I’ve heard it a thousand times and probably never truly believed it. Here’s how this lightning bolt of truth hit me. This morning I read Job 19:25-27, “25 I know that my Redeemer lives, and that in the end He will stand on the earth.26 And after my skin has been destroyed,yetin my flesh I will see God;27 I myself will see Him with my own eyes—I, and not another. How my heart yearns within me!” Did you catch it? Those precious words of promise? …my Redeemer lives. I felt my heart race as I read…

Whether I’m at the beach or curled on the couch with the pups, there’s a new stack of books calling my name. Let’s jump into the list, shall we? This month I have 5 non-fiction’s to share with you: First off: A Women’s Guide to Making Right Choices by Elizabeth George Known for her “A Woman after God’s Own Heart” series, Elizabeth…

    Hello dearest, I hope this post finds you relishing in springs beauty and the hope of summer winds. So what have I been reading…lots! Here in the PNW temps fluctuate between cold and damp and warm and sunny. On those days that beg you to curl up on the couch with a big cuppa tea with the dogs at my feet here’s what on rotation. Generally speaking if it has anything to do with digging deeper into scripture, I’m all for it. And when I need a tried and true gem there’s always my favorite, Jane Austen, anyone? These are…

    Back and Forth Until Peace

    - By 

    I was reviewing my sermon notes from yesterday’s service. Basically the pastor was talking about resting in God’s timing, in His will, in His timing. And when we don’t, there’s a battle. Us, our minds, our actions and words in competition with what God’s wanting for us. As the pastor continued his sermon, an image of one of my favorite elementary school playground equipment pieces came to mind. Remember those seesaws/teeter-totters. My best friend and I could play forever on that thing. One minute you were up in the air, the next you were digging in your heels to send…

    Seeking God

    - By 

    What does that even mean, “seeking God?” I started this blog because I’ve had plenty of women ask me, “What do you mean you talked to God? Did He part the skies and boom down from heaven, ‘Hey Amy, how’s it going? Do you need something? You got a problem I can help you with?’ Yes and No. No, I’ve never heard an audible voice. But what I have experienced is His Holy Spirit talking to me through a prompting in my soul and through His Word when I’m spending time with Him. Most mornings, I’m sitting on my couch…
