The Lord guarantees us that He will be with us, will never leave us, and is our ever-present help. So why do we worry that necessary things won’t get done when they need to? Do you ever feel that way? You’ve got a deadline at work and the pressure is mounting to get it finished, but things aren’t coming together? Or, is your schedule full of important responsibilities with little room to budge?

Dads – The protectors and providers of the family. Great dads serve and give selflessly to see their families thrive. They aren’t afraid to discipline their kids, when necessary, in order to correct wrong behaviour and help them follow the right path of life. They are great listeners, teachers, and adventurists. They’ll help you overcome fears, explore the great outdoors, and grow into a strong woman.

I want to do something different today. I’ve posted the passage from 1 Chronicles 16:8-36 for you to read through. I’ve given a list of the Lord’s characteristics and then a list of ways for you to respond from what is written here. I think it’s important sometimes to pause and just marvel at who the Lord is and how you can respond in worship.

During my Bible School years, I was reading through Hebrews as a course assignment, and when I came to this verse in context, it blew me away! “….be content with such things as you have, for He has said, “I will never leave you….’ “. I was going through a difficult year. I had broken up with my boyfriend, my family was going through a time of brokeness and even my close friends seemed to be “leaving” me. I felt alone and abandoned. But that night as I sat at my desk eating candy corn, the words practically jumped off the page at me! I could be content, simply because God was with me and would never leave me! So simple yet so profound! I clung to that verse after that!

The Lord gives us exciting opportunities to stretch our faith and trust in Him. Sometimes they are exciting and others gives our nerves a good kick of adrenaline. Either way, it’s up to us to accept the opportunity and explore His lessons and blessings on the other side.

Did you know that the Bible is full of examples of succession planning? There’s so much you can learn for faithful stewardship in Scripture that can be applied to personal, business, and ministry endeavours.

The lesson the Lord has been teaching me lately almost seems contradictory in my mind, yet He’s been confirming it to me. The lesson is – I need to have more fun.

Do you try to avoid May altogether? ldren’s clothing for Easter and spring. Then I’d go to others that had sweet sentiments for mothers on their displays. Each store had some sort of mother and/or child aspect that brought pangs of sorrow to my heart.

Discipline is never an easy subject to talk about. There are so many differing opinions on what is the proper way to do it. It doesn’t feel good to give it or receive it. The world is moving further away from discipline because they only see how it has been abused, rather than been used to correct, edify, and teach.

Good relationships take a lot of work, but each one is worth it. As many of you know, I’m blessed with three moms. Each have very different personalities from another. There are some common interests too. The most beautiful and treasured being that they all love the Lord very much.
