I Will, Will You? (a faith prayer)
I want to follow God wherever He asks me to go, but it can be so hard. In the middle of chaos and the weariness of life, I can forget that it’s always safe to say “I will” to God. That’s where a faith prayer can be helpful. “Master, we’ve worked hard all night and haven’t caught anything. But…
A Thanksgiving Day Prayer (a humble sacrifice and plea)
Thanksgiving is traditionally a time of feasting, celebrating the goodness of the Lord! It’s a day for acknowledging God’s provisions in a broken and battered world. Life isn’t easy and pain-free.

When Darkness Threatens (Power of Prayer)
ISIS. Beheadings. Nepal earthquake. Riots. I lay in bed and darkness crept in, literally and figuratively, as my mind settled on the unsettling. Then with a conscious effort to refocus, I offered this whispered prayer: Lord, there is so much heartache out there. So much suffering. So much brokenness. And I want to worry. But…
What To Do When You are Frustrated With Your Walk of Faith
“Grant that I may not pray alone with the mouth; help me that I may pray from the depths of my heart.” ~Martin Luther I used to think I knew God. I knew who He was. What He did for me. How He wanted me to conduct myself. Years later, I realize I never really…
When You Wonder If God Tires of Listening: Promise of Christmas
“If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!” Matthew 7:11 My weary body screamed for rest, but here in front of me sat my son, recently back from his first semester of college.

Humble Prayer: A Doorway Leading to Hope and Healing
When it comes to prayer, I’m kind of a formula girl. I grew up praying memorized prayers. Meal Prayer: Bless us our Lord and these our gifts, which we are about to receive from Thy bounty. Amen. The Lord’s Prayer: Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy name. Thy Kingdom come, Thy will…

Reflections and Projections (Christmas Prayer)
It’s been a wonderful, full year. One of many blessings, yet not without its share of frustrations and difficulties as well. Not much different from yours, I’m sure. The Lord has made His presence known in many ways through what I perceive as the good and the bad. He is faithful and exceedingly gracious! You,…

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.
