When you say yes to God, you’re inviting Him to work in your life in amazing ways.

Have you ever been in a season where it feels like you’re stuck in waiting mode? You’ve been hoping, praying, and believing for something, but it just… hasn’t… happened.

So, here's the thing—we’re often told to ignore what people say about us and only focus on what God says. And that’s totally true! But sometimes, what others say can give us clues about what God’s already saying about us too. God sees you as His masterpiece. He’s proud of you, even when you don’t feel it. He’s placed strength, beauty, and leadership inside of you, and through the people around you...

Have you ever thought about just how powerful your words are? 🤔 As a Christian, you’ve probably heard Proverbs 18:21, which says, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue.” 👈 But what does that really mean for you? Your words can shape your world! Whether it's your family, your business, or your relationships, what you say has the power to bring life or death into those areas. Imagine spea...

Do you know just how special you are? God handcrafted you with such care, love, and purpose. Every detail of who you are was designed by Him, and you are a beautiful reflection of His creativity and love.   In a world that often tries to define us by external standards, it's easy to fall into the trap of believing the lies that say we're not enough, or that we need to conform to be accepted. But t...

“I’m SO frustrated!” Frustrated…that’s a word I’ve been hearing a lot lately. Have you been feeling it too? That emotion is a great way of being made aware that something is going on inside of us that we get to pay attention to. In this week’s video, you’ll find 3 scenarios where your emotions are great indicators to ask God for His help… ✨ how to know when the emotion is inviting you to inner he...

Imagine you’re packed and ready to go on your long awaited vacation to Miami, Florida. Sun, sea, relaxation await. You’ve decided to catch the train so you can enjoy a leisurely ride through the beautiful countryside without the hassle of driving or waiting in airport lines. You settle in to your seat –your bags are packed away, you’ve got your book ready and…you’re off. The first announcement com...

Change is HARD! It can feel wobbly and uncertain and like we’re out of control. Ugh! So many of my coaching clients come for a session when they’re in the middle of a ‘knowing of transition’, seeking counsel and guidance to know what to do with the feelings of frustration and angst. It’s legit! But what if we knew a little more of what God was actually inviting us in to in the transition? What if...

Let me tell you what typically happens…I catch myself thinking about something that’s going on in my life and I realize that I’m feeling… ➔ Scared ➔ Worried ➔ Upset ➔ Confused ➔ Anxious ➔ Frustrated And then it’s like I suddenly ‘come to my senses’ and realize that thinking this way doesn’t feel very good at all. It doesn’t line up with the abundant life that Jesus said I get to live (in John 10:1...

I remember being taught how to build a fire as a young girl.   We were on a leadership camp with school, and each group was given a box of matches and a raw chicken, and told to make our own dinner! It was up to us to make the fire, suspend the chicken over it, and cook it until it was completely done (so we didn’t make ourselves sick).   We listened to what we were supposed to do and all sat ther...

When my husband was about 6 years old, he had a dream (about 1974).   In the dream he was looking at a little screen on a band on his wrist. As he looked at it more closely, he realized that he could press the screen and images would appear.   He was so intrigued that he tucked that memory away even after he’d woken up.. Fast forward 40 years or so, and one day we were in the Apple store and he sa...

”Ooohhh, I think I found a chink in her armor! A place where her guard is down and we can get in and have access to her”    OK, OK, I didn’t actually hear this, but I can imagine that’s what a conversation might sound like between 2 demons who are ‘roaring around like lions, seeking whom they may devour’ (1 Peter 5:8)   When we don’t listen to God’s call for healing the places in our souls where w...

I recently had an incredible conversation with a coaching client, where we received a profound revelation from the Lord.   We realized that many of us are striving to do what we believe is God's work—helping, serving, and balancing our busy lives.   However, the challenge lies in figuring out what to let go of. Should we reduce volunteering, cut our kids' activities, or stop checking emails consta...

God is interested in Your past, Your present and Your future.   So interested in fact that Jesus came to deal with everything in your past - so that He could set you up for a great present, and future.   So we typically know how He has saved us from our past. And we live in the present, so we’re familiar with that. But what about our future? How much do we really know about what that looks like, a...

Prayer is powerful – we all know this. But sometimes it can be difficult to do…   Sometimes we don’t know what to pray, Or we get distracted and find that we’ve stopped praying without even knowing it, Or we don’t think we’re seeing answers to our prayers, so we get discouraged.   But you know what, prayer is SUPER important to God too.   So as a way to help us, He gives us really practical ways t...

“Jesus, help!”   I found myself saying this a few weeks ago as my husband and I sat praying together before bed.   I had a hip replacement operation in April, and it was a hard road to recovery for me.   On this particular day, everything seemed to be so, so heavy. I was in a lot of pain, I was tired, I was feeling weak and there was a heavy cloud of despair over me that I couldn’t seem to move.  ...

Imagine having a conversation with someone and they turn their back to you, mid-sentence. Ummmm…. "Hello, we were just talking and you turned your back to me. What’s going on?"   It wouldn’t feel good right? We all want to be wanted. We all want to know that someone else is interested in spending time with us, hearing us, listening to what we want to share.   It’s just human nature. So when we rea...
