Transforming Your Vision: Seeing Life Through God’s Eyes
How do I really see? Yesterday, Pastor Juan shared a powerful message that challenged me to consider whether I’m viewing life through my own experiences or through God’s eyes. Am I seeing myself, others, and ministry the way He does? Join me as we explore how to shift our vision to align with God's truth."
Are You Prepared for the Miracle?
What if God is ready to move, but He’s waiting on you to prepare? In 2 Kings 3, God told His people to dig ditches before they saw a drop of water. Faith doesn’t wait for signs—it prepares in expectation.
Where Were You? Trusting God’s Sovereignty in Uncertainty
We all have our "But Lord…" moments—times when life doesn’t make sense and we’re left with more questions than answers. But in Job 38, God shifts the perspective: “Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation?” It’s a humbling reminder that even when we don’t understand, He is still in control.
What Are You Feeding Your Mind?
I haven’t tuned out the news completely, but I have made a conscious effort to avoid the fear-driven, opinion-heavy reporting that stirs people up. It’s easy to fall into the trap of consuming negativity, and before we know it, we’re frustrated, anxious, and even angry. But Philippians 4:8 challenges us to be intentional about what we allow to shape our thoughts. So today, take a step back and ask: What am I feeding my mind?

Let’s talk about trusting God when things don’t go as planned.
Finding Strength in Rest: Trusting God When You’re Run Down
There’s a lot of sickness going around, and our household has not escaped it. It seems like it has been lingering, moving from one person to the next. While I have managed to avoid most of it, I may be dealing with a bit of a cough myself.
It’s frustrating to be slowed down when there’s so much to do. But sickness has a way of reminding us of something we often forget: We are not invincible.
We live in a fallen world where sickness and weakness are part of life. I’m not saying God caused this sickness, but I do know this: in every season, even the ones we wouldn’t choose, He is present, and He is faithful.
Some Things Are Meant for a Season—Not Forever: Learning to Let Go for a Healthier Life
We often focus on what we should add to our lives—new habits, new commitments, new goals. But what if the key to spiritual growth isn’t just adding more, but letting go of what no longer belongs? Some things serve a purpose for a season, but if we hold onto them too long, they become a burden. Just like a gardener prunes branches for more fruitfulness, we need to clear out what is no longer serving us. What is God calling you to release?
