4 Simple Ways to Stay Close to God

If we are not careful, sometimes too much time goes by before we even realize that we have neglected our relationship with the Lord.

I know all too well how difficult it can be to stay close to God throughout the day, especially with a little one to care for and with the many things that must be done each day. No matter how busy we are, it’s amazing to know that God is never too busy for us. Instead, He’s patiently waiting for us to come to Him and for us to abide in Him.

I have some simple ways to stay connected to God no matter how crazy the day gets. These are simple tips that help me reconnect. I hope you find encouragement and useful ideas! [Read more…]

Currently March Link Up

Just like that, It’s March! My last currently post was quite a while ago but I’m excited to get back in the swing of things!

Today I’m linking up with Anne and Carrie to share what I am currently…

Watching | This Is Us. I can’t always catch it when it airs during the week, so thankfully it’s easy to catch up on Hulu with Eddie. This show is well written and just so sweet! I always have to have my tissues near by me when we watch, anyone else?!

Eating | Toasted Marshmallow flavored greek yogurt- YUM! Mixing in a little granola really makes this a little sweet treat from time to time. [Read more…]

The Power of a Grateful Heart

Grateful_Heart_Is_Powerful
Not only do we find joy with having a grateful attitude, but the Lord also finds joy in us having it. Having a heart that is thankful keeps us in a positive state of mind. Deliberately focusing more on God’s goodness- not ourselves- keeps us from negative thinking that can lead to an ungrateful heart.

God is Our Helper

God is our Helper_ Psalm 121 Devotion In God, we have a Father, a Savior, a Friend, and a great Helper. God is whatever we need him to be in our lives. He’s the great I Am! Psalm 121 gives more reassurance of this truth as we go further into the verse:

He will not let your foot slip—he who watches over you will not slumber; indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. The LORD watches over you—the LORD is your shade at your right hand; the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. The LORD will keep you from all harm—he will watch over your life; the LORD will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.” (Psalm 121)
