So the James Experiment is already kicking my booty and its only day two!!   My two thoughts from yesterday…
“for the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God.” (James 1:20)
So I’ve blogged about this verse before, but the truth needs to be heard by me ALL the time.  In the chaos of 3 [...]

As I said last week, I’m really studying what it looks like to live like a child of God. This week God has been challenging me to let go of a lot of the control I have. Control over the house, kids, schedule, etc… He’s been challenging me to not just believe that [...]

Its been a few weeks since I’ve posted on a Tuesday…I think life tends to move faster the older I get. Even writing that makes me feel old. But the saying “Time flies” seems to make more and more sense to me the older I get.
But I digress. Back to this post. [...]

it shall not return to me empty,
but it shall accomplish that which I [...]

God gradually opens my eyes to my own sinfulness which causes me to take an honest look at myself,my sin, and my life.  This leads to a greater understanding of [...]

So there is so much swirling through my head this week that its impossible to write it all down.   I can’t even verbalize to Brent what God is teaching me yet; I’m still just thinking through things.
Not that it matters much except that I made a commitment to myself that I would post every Tuesday [...]

Faithbuilding…
If you’ve been reading this the past month, you know that increasing my faith seems to be the theme in my life.  This week the Lord is using the ministry I organize at church to push me and develop my faith even more.
Discipleship  is my passion, and I absolutely love that our church has a [...]

Simplicity:
The discipline of living with little hurry and complete honesty.  Brent and I have been working on this discipline for awhile.  See you can be busy, but not hurried.  Busy is the definition of life.  Hurrying is where the stress comes.   I’ve gotten pretty good at not hurrying, by planning ahead enough and then working [...]

He said to them, “Because of your little faith. For truly, I say to you, if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you.”       Matthew 17:20
I’m not really sure how to write [...]

I always like to start the year by re-evaluating the previous year. ( Click here if you want to read through the list of evaluating questions I used)
As I looked over the previous year, I realized that 2009 was the year of prayer for me.  I studied it, I practiced it, I was consumed with [...]
