PRAISE & PRAYER PROMPT ••• This is Day 2 of our week-long focus on the five senses: sight, smell, hearing, taste, and touch. Day 2–Smell. Perhaps the most underrated sense we have… at least until we have a cold. Our sense of smell is important though… It keeps us safe by making us aware of smoke or gas, helps us identify foods that are good … Continue reading 6.18.19 Praise & Prayer Prompt: Smell (A Sensory Series)
PRAISE & PRAYER PROMPT ••• Last week, I accidentally wrote a three-part series. This time, it’s on purpose. This one has been on my mind for several weeks. We’re going to spend five days on the senses: sight, smell, hearing, taste, and touch. But of course, we’ll talk about them from a faith-based perspective. Day 1–Sight. We have two different types of vision. The physical … Continue reading 6.17.19 PRAISE & PRAYER PROMPT: Sight (A Sensory Series)
PRAISE & PRAYER PROMPT ••• One of the biggest struggles I deal with in my Christian journey is trusting the unknown to God. I want a map. I want the details. It’s the side-effect of being a control-freak. But we serve a God who often operates on a need-to-know-basis for that very reason—He wants us to trust Him. This week, I’ve had several friends reach … Continue reading 5.8.19 Praise & Prayer Prompt: The Unknown

PRAISE & PRAYER PROMPT ••• For many of us, it’s hard not to constantly look in the rearview mirror of life. After all, we know where we’ve been, what we’ve done, and what we wish we could change. We look back and recite to ourselves all the would’ve’s, could’ve’s, and should’ve’s. And we get nowhere with it. We know the promise of 2 Corinthians 5:17, … Continue reading 4.27.19 Praise & Prayer Prompt: Beauty From Ashes
PRAISE & PRAYER PROMPT ••• Yesterday, I took my son to see his surgeon for his two week check up. Since surgery, C’s arm has been wrapped in a splint that went from armpit to hand and he loathed it. He wanted the splint off so badly. On Saturday night, he threatened to take it off and I had an ever-so-slightly-panicked response to that idea. … Continue reading 4.10.19 Praise & Prayer Prompt: If Your Faith Were X-Ray’d
PRAISE & PRAYER PROMPT ••• I have been waiting for this day for months! It’s the first day of Spring! I will sneeze my head off for the next month (even more than normal since I’m a chronic sneezer no matter what time of the year and I’m stubborn and won’t take allergy medicine). But I am so grateful for winter to be officially over. … Continue reading 3.20.19 Praise & Prayer Prompt: It’s Spring!
