A Prayer That Changes Things Have you ever felt forgotten, invisible, rejected, mocked, or dismissed? Perhaps you thought that this past year would bring you a new job, a marriage, the start of a business, a baby, or a new house, but instead, another year has gone by with your prayers unanswered.  Maybe you’re at a later stage in life, feeling as though you’ve experienced everything but still find yourself feeling invisible, as if the world has moved on without you. You may b

This is part four of the You Glow Girl series. I want to keep this short, sweet, and to the point. If you haven’t already, please check out parts 1, 2, and 3 before reading this. I hope you have enjoyed this series so far and that you are experiencing God's presence in a deeper way. In the previous posts, we explored a godly woman’s character and mindset, inspired by the Proverbs 31 woman, as well as the godly wisdom found in the book of Ruth. Now, we will wrap up this series

Godly Wisdom I hope you are enjoying this series thus far. We have gained so much insight into the character and mindset of the Proverbs 31 woman. If you haven’t already, please check out the last two blog posts before reading this one. They are titled "You Glow Girl: Godly Character" and "You Glow Girl: Godly Mindset." I don’t want you to miss out on the fullness of this powerful series. Now, let’s dive deep into what it means to have godly wisdom. To clarify, I am not writi

I'm super excited to dive into the mindset of a godly woman. Last week, we gained insight into the character of the Proverbs 31 woman, and this week, we will take a closer look at how she thinks. It's undeniable that the Proverbs 31 woman does not rely solely on her own abilities; she truly seeks wisdom from the Lord. How do we come to this conclusion? In my opinion, it’s rare, if not humanly impossible, to excel in all areas at the same time. I'm sure you've heard the saying

I don’t know about you, but I want that Jesus glow—that glow that radiates from the inside out. The type of glow that speaks volumes because it’s giving fruits of the spirit. I want a light so bright that those who are lost in sin will ask how they can have it too, so I can share about our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I want this little light of mine to shine because the Lord has lifted me from my past, cleansed me, and now calls me His own. I can’t help but proclaim His na

Let’s be honest: life is not always a walk in the park. If you’re anything like me, there may have been times when you found yourself sliding down the wall, doing the ugly cry. After I became a Christian, I assumed that life would become much easier. While Christianity offers peace, joy, and simplicity, the reality is that it’s far from easy. Being in the world but not of it is challenging, and there have been days when I didn’t think I could go on. However, by the power of t

Grace or Works? As a new believer, I've struggled to fully understand salvation because there seems to be a division on this topic within the Christian community. On one side, some Christians say we are saved by grace and that there’s nothing we can do to lose our salvation. On the other side, some imply that our works determine our entry into heaven. For months, I wondered which perspective was correct. I’ll be honest: I don’t have complete certainty about the answer, but af

How to Increase Desire to Read Your Bible Are you struggling to read your bible consistently? Let’s be honest, the bible can be intimidating and overwhelming, especially for a new believer. Right after I rededicated my life to the Lord in March of 2024, I purchased my very first bible. I found a beautiful pink bible on Amazon. I'm a sucker for anything pink, so I had to have it, haha. Anyway, I purchased all the tools such as highlighters, cute pens, sticky notes, journals, a

Are you a prodigal daughter? Do you feel far from God and desperately long to feel his presence? If past mistakes, shame, guilt, love of sin, or fear keep you distant from him, it's time to return to your loving Heavenly Father. He is patiently waiting for you with open arms. One night in March 2024, I encountered Jesus Christ. On that day, I was battling depression, a struggle I had faced on and off for years. Even though my life was going fairly well, I felt a dark cloud ho
