All of us have seasons of life that we view as wasted years. If you do not, hang on. It will happen. We experience these seasons for different reasons. Sometimes we are running from God. Other times we are relying on our own abilities. Then there are times when we simply do not care about God or His plan for our lives. No matter what lands us in a difficult season, we do not have to stay in that place. God is a redeeming God. He brings meaning out of the messes that we create

There is a song playing on Christian radio that is titled, "Dear, Younger Me." Maybe you have heard the song. The premise of the song is simple. If we could give the younger version of ourselves some advice, what would it be? One day, I was driving and listening to the song on the radio. The song made me stop and think. What advice would I give to the younger version of myself? Before I tell you my answer, let me give you a little background. My life has been good... really g

Believers in Jesus Christ always have a reason to hope. Hope changes everything because it positions us to see what is in our life instead of what is missing. Romans 15:13 speaks of hope. It says, “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” (New International Version) We serve the God of hope. No other god offers life-changing or life-sustaining hope. Biblical hope involves more

Think about a moment in your life when you experienced regret. You said something or did something that turned out to be wrong; or maybe you missed an opportunity to do something right. Regret-- the longer we live the more likely we are to experience it in our lives. Peter dealt with his fair share of regret. He wanted to do the right things and say the rights things. Often he got it wrong. When Jesus offered to wash Peter's feet the reply was quick and to the point. "No," sa

My family recently moved to a new home. We are still in Conway, Arkansas and we are slowly settling in to our new space. We love it! I walk around my house every day and thank God for it. The buying and selling process is not for the faint of heart. During our buying and selling process, we had our eyes on another house. I knew that it was "the one!" I drove past it several times a week (ok... I drove past it every single day) and I prayed that it would be ours. I wanted tha

Have you experienced traveling "hiccups?" Have you missed your flight, picked the wrong lane of traffic and got stuck, or missed an exit? These things happen to me all of the time! Recently I was traveling overseas and found myself in an usually sticky travel situation. The plan was simple. Our group would fly out of Little Rock to Dallas. We would fly from Dallas to Beijing, and then fly from Beijing to our final destination. A slight delay in Dallas resulted in missing our

Some seasons in life are busy. I just finished a busy season. Let me tell you--- it was hard and I was overwhelmed. I would never try to hide this fact from you. Busy seasons are hard seasons. Even now, I am fighting the urge to tell you my LONG list of “to do’s.” Can you relate? During my busy season, I had to focus on the task in front of me. I do not think this is necessarily the best way to live; but for me, it was the only way to make it through. As I walked through my

Flexibility is important in my line of work. When I walk into a church, I never know what to expect. I think the same is true for the church. Most of the time, they do not know me. We both have to trust that God has brought us together and that He is going to work in a powerful way. I’ve had the best experiences in churches. I love the women that I get to serve. In the many years of serving the Lord through True Vine ministry, I have only had a couple of bad experiences. I am

"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see." Hebrews 11:1, New International Version This well-known verse of Scripture beautifully defines faith. Faith is evidenced when we know beyond a shadow of a doubt that God is real, He has a plan for our lives, and we can trust Him no matter what is going on in our lives. (Especially during the messy times!) In Hebrews 11, a list of faith-filled people is mentioned. These people lived by faith when
