Three Things to Remember About God, Relationships, and Singleness

T

I am nineteen years old. I have never dated anyone or been in a serious relationship. Do I want to get married someday? Absolutely! Since I was a little girl, my dream has been to be a godly wife and a mommy to a house of little ones. However, during this time of my life, God has me absolutely single. Even though it is hard sometimes, God has been teaching me a lot about how He views...

Dear You, I’m Sorry: A Call to Love Like Christ

D

The letter you are about to read was written out of the deep desire of my heart to start living a life that loved like Christ loved. A few months ago, I was holding on to my own plans, hopes, and wants so tightly that I was hurting people close to me. However, God in His grace got a hold of my heart and something in me changed.

During the Good Friday service, our pastor gets up and quotes Elizabeth Barret Browning. How do I love thee? Let me count the ways… “Although there are many ways that God shows His love towards us,” he tells the congregation, “tonight is a time for us to reflect on the Way He loved us.” What he said stuck with me.

I’m Worried About the Future. This Is What I Need to Remember.

I

I can hardly believe it has come already. The New Year. In what seems like hardly any time at all, 2016 has gone, and 2017, with all of its unspoken potential, has come. Perhaps more than anything I worry about the unknown future, I worry about enough-ness. Just, will there be enough this year, Lord? After all, with just three of us in our family to manage and take care of the house, go grocery...
