Jesus has a message of hope for us. His screaming cries as a baby were met by the loving voice of His mother Mary. Jesus picked righteous yet flesh clothed humans to teach him. He grew up, played, and even experienced scraped knees! He taught the men who were considered most educated. Jesus knew hard [...]
While in my family’s game room this past week, I continued to see God help me dream about ways to love others during this time of distance. As some of you know, I have been having the privilege of leading a girls ministry monthly since this past July. God birthed Cultivate as a part of [...]
Hello, friend! I had my wisdom teeth removed a few weeks ago and wrote some words down after I got home from the surgery. Since my mom was taking care of me, I used one of her notebooks as it was readily available for use. God has continued to remind me to return to the [...]

Those who live with me wake up fully prepared to hear what I dreamed about during the night. Sometimes the dreams are animated, full of emotion, and full of color. I am just waking up from a dream, but I believe this one carries a message for us today. I found myself on a cruise [...]
Starting today, I was thinking of all the many things on my to-do list. Go get gas. Meet up with a friend. Work on school work. Prepare for a weekend conference. I am now at home in the time I had planned on working on all the many different projects. In the Lord’s fire of [...]
