A Godly Girls Diary

Dear Diary, Love . One of the hardest words to define and to live out. But yet it is one of those words everyone thinks they know the answer to. But who actually knows what love looks like and what it is? I am sure we each have our own answers to this question. But the true answer is quite simple. Jesus. In today’s answer, we will be exploring the question of what it means to truly love your broth...

Dear Diary, Many would ask what peace is in this day and age. Not many (unless you are a Christian) would know how to be at peace when the world is in chaos. It is a question of how to be at peace when the world tells us to be in a constant state of chaos. In today’s episode, we explore God’s balance of peace and love and how these two intertwine into a beautiful gift. Live NOW! Listen to it where...

Dear Diary, Easter has come and gone. The cute, whimsical decorations are put away. The delicious treats are gone, and we are deciding what to do with our leftover candy. The sermons have been preached, and we have forgotten about the resurrection story. But this does not mean that the story is irrelevant. We tend to forget about Christ after this season of resurrection has passed. In today’s epis...

Dear Diary, Some call it good. Some call it bad. Some say it is corrupted. Some say it is the best we have ever had. Some are fine with it. Some are mad. But there is a common theme in all of this: fear. Everyone is afraid of what has happened, what will happen, or what could happen. The wars make us afraid of what we could lose. The case of the economy makes us fear where our food will come from....

Dear Diary, Hate. Fear. Pain. Destruction. This is what the world has taught us is normal. This is how we should act and behave. But God has called us to be set apart. To be different. To not act as the world acts. This is the same with our love. God has called us to a different love. Listen to this week’s episode to find out what this love is and what this looks like for Christian’s today. Live N...

Dear Diary, “How has this happened so fast?” “What if this turns into WWIII?” “What if this violence destroys our community and family?” These are constant questions that keep circling around in every circle I know. But each of these questions have their foundation in fear. Not in the right fear but in the fear of this world. God has an answer for all of this fear, though. In today’s episode, we e...

Dear Diary, It is only the end of the second month of 2026, and there seems to be so much chaos and confusion. In the midst of this confusion, people are blaming each other for this terrible chaos. So many feel ashamed at what they may have done in the past or recently. We are told that there is nothing we can do to fix what we have done wrong. We are a total failure. No one can fix our problems....

Dear Diary, A lot can happen over one year. People change. We grow. We move to new places. We take on new responsibilities. New jobs. New challenges. All of this can shape us and make us better people. It can also ruin us and make us restart the next year. In this episode, we talk about three things I wish I had known last year. We talk about a variety of things, from trusting God’s plan to the im...

Dear Diary, The world is still crazy right now. We are surrounded by those who suffer, and by our own suffering. It seems like an endless journey. When we round a corner, there always seems to be more suffering. We can not seem to do anything about it either. We are told that something better awaits us. But is that really the truth? Or is hope just a psychological lie to make us believe in somethi...

Dear Diary, This world is such a confusing place. I do not look at the news, yet I constantly feel its effects. Everyone whispers of the disasters with great distress. Everyone is alarmed by what is unfolding around them. And yet, we forget everything that is important during this time. In this short yet captivating episode, we explore the purpose of our suffering and what we can do to lighten its...

Dear Diary, What do we do when we are in the midst of trouble? What is our immediate response? It is so easy to get caught up in what we are doing that we forget to pray. Furthermore, we do not know what to say to God. It seems like we are repeating ourselves over and over again. With no response from God, we begin to doubt our relationship with God. This is the reason we have prayer. God is cravi...

Dear Diary, There is so much noise. It is so hard to hear. It pierces my ears and makes it hard to hear anything else. I begin to question what my voice is and what God’s voice is. How can I discern which is which when others yell at me what to do? There must be some way to hear His voice that can make it easy to discern among all the voices. Today, in this episode, we talk about how to know God’s...

Dear Diary, It is after Christmas, and everyone’s thoughts are on the New Year. Particularly, what goals they should set. There are so many opinions out there on what to do and not to do when setting goals. In today’s podcast episode, we clear the noise as I give three tips on how to set Godly goals for the new year. This includes how to weave God into every step of our goal-setting and keep Him a...

We get so focused on gifts and the pretty lights that we forget the babe in the manger. Let us remember HIM during this season. NEW podcast episode out now!

Dear Diary, Social media scares me these days. There are so many people fighting and bickering online. How can people be so mean to each other? How are we changing the world with this use of the internet? Is it possible to be good to one another? What is the example Christians should be setting? Church unity is an underappreciated topic and should be discussed more. But can we change the world thr...

Dear Diary, The world is in turmoil. When we see this, we think of the end times and the approaching day of the Lord. We think of all the signs God gave us and their fulfillment coming to fruition. But how are we living now with that in mind? Are we keeping our eyes on Christ or on the things of this world? Are we reaching those who need to hear about Christ? All this and so much more on today’s e...

Dear Diary, The world does not know true wisdom. We do not fuel our bodies correctly. We do not not live our life in the right direction. But if we are in Christ we have a different life to live. Our life is not of this world. Food is more then for our enjoyment. We must live our life in with the hope of a greater reward. Find out the answer to these questions and so much more on today’s episode o...

Dear Diary, The opinions I have heard on this subject have deeply concerned me. We believe that the Old Testament is merely an old, disregarded book. But it is deeper and more fulfilling than that. God gave us the Old Testament so we could learn His ways and His will. In the Old Testament we can find the grandest stories: Daniel in the lions den, David and Goliath, the Ten Plagues, etc. God never...

Dear Diary, Predictions about the end times have everyone in a whirlwind. Social media, famous pastors, and Christian friends all share their own opinions about when and how it will happen. But is this all true? What opinions should we take on the end times? At this time, I also struggle to find Christian friends who want to stand next to me in my walk with the Lord. There seems to be no one out t...

Dear Diary, I am worried about our nation's culture. Every time I use the Internet, I am reminded of the sins within our world. Many people use social media to vent their anger and frustration. I am concerned about how the world is changing and left feeling anxious and helpless. How can I deal with my anxiety? Is it possible to be a light in today’s dark world? How should I react to the news and m...

Dear Diary…. The world is speaking out. Social media shows me one influencer telling me to believe this and another telling me to believe that. How am I supposed to know what to do? What should I believe? Who should I believe? We search for the truth and understand what is right and wrong. But should we speak out about it? Is it just better to be silent and not tell others the gospel of Jesus Chri...

Dear Diary, The media turns my head around again and again. The opinions differ so much that I have more questions than answers. I do not even know what to believe anymore. This is especially true when it comes to the nation of Israel. One side tells me to believe that what the nation of Israel says it is doing is fact, and the other side tells me it is another government lie. This left me wonderi...

Dear Diary, Our world is turning upside down. The perfect pictures we had of our future are now disappearing into thin air. Can we find God in the midst of this doubt?
