Walk in the Blessings of a Godly Marriage #wifestylin (book review and giveaway)
If you are in an abusive marriage, please seek professional help! “Wives, submit to your own husbands as to the Lord,” (Ephesians 5:22). Wait, don’t click away! This is a beautiful invitation from God, not the horrible demand some women fear it to be. You’ll feel better after you read God’s charge to husbands a few short verses…
How To Best Support One Another (be honest)
“I’ve always thought you had it all together.” My incredulous look followed her into the sanctuary. Me? Having it all together? I’m the one who forgot her son at church … not once, but two Sundays in a row. I’m the one who also forgot said son at daycare. I’m the girl who arrives minutes late…
Be Comforted in Your Pain (you are never alone)
“Don’t let them hurt me!” My young son’s words broke my heart. Although his immunizations were necessary, it wasn’t easy to listen to his cries. Through my nearly 23 years of parenting, I’ve found myself in the doctor’s office countless times with my children. Sometimes the visits have been pleasant, other times not so much.…
Why I Count Blessings (remembering His love)
Why is it so hard to walk in God’s love for us? Instead we give into fear and desperation. What believer (or even nonbeliever) hasn’t heard it … God loves you? We all have. It’s often the first thing you will hear or read when introduced to the world of Christianity. Because it’s a core truth. God does love you!…
Experience God’s Peace in All Its Fullness
Who among us doesn’t script for ourselves a life of relative ease and unending happiness? I’m certainly guilty. Yet the years never unfold according to our perfectly laid plans. From scary diagnoses to financial burdens to strained relationships, life has a way of throwing our days out of kilter. “Praise be to the LORD, the…
The Thing To Do When You Feel Lost at Sea While Still on Land
I wonder how many others feel the way I do. Adrift. Like I’m walking in a fog. A bit uncertain of the direction I am to go. I’m tempted to give into doing what I’ve been doing. Running on the crazy wheel. Hoping purpose and clarity bursts in sometime, somehow. But I know God has a plan…
Sometimes Pressing Pause Is Necessary
I’m hitting the pause button. I hope you had a joy-filled, Christ-focused Christmas: one of awe and wonder as you reflected on the immensity of God becoming a human baby. All so you and I could live with Him forever! My family and I are still celebrating. Traditionally my husband and I and the children…
Grace Delivered in the Birth of Christ (Merry Christmas!)
“Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord.” Luke 2:11 The Good News! Grace has been delivered in the Babe. The Prince of Peace. The Lamb of God. The Savior of the World. Birth of Jesus Christ Salvation entered our world in the birth…
Jesus Reigns in Our Mess (A Christmas Confession) #AdventReflections
I’m so grateful Jesus reigns even in my mess. I expected this Christmas to be different. I planned for this Christmas to be different. To be quieter … simpler … slower. And then life kicked in with a vengeance. The busyness of the holidays — no, my own ideas of the what the holidays should…
Messy Is Real, but One Day Only Beauty Will Remain #AdventReflections
It’s all messy, but one day only beauty will remain. This is the week serene images of the first Christmas will be displayed everywhere. They will feature Mary, the mother of Jesus, Joseph the Christ-child’s adoptive father, shepherd and wise men, and the Babe Himself (and don’t forget all the docile livestock looking on) all…
Hello, I'm Julie, an imperfect wife and mother of four. Life in this broken world is not always easy. Yet, joy can be found in each day through the grace and mercy of the Lord Jesus Christ.
I find it's easy for our day's blessings to get lost in its happenings. But God's "mercies never end" (Lamentations 3:22) and His "grace is sufficient" (2 Corinthians 12:9).
May the posts and pages on this site offer you a measure of peace and encouragement.
