Do you feel crippled by insecurity? Remember that little thing you could do with flower petals where you pick a petal one at a time and say, "He loves me, he loves me not. He loves me, he loves me not?" I think sometimes we feel that same insecurity with God's love toward us. Maybe today God is mad at me...does he still love me? We feel that same insecurity in friendships and relati...

If shame is a stronghold that is holding you captive, friend, today's...

We've all heard the adage pride comes before a fall... And none of us really want to be prideful, but are we actively bringing our pride before the Lord? It's one of those insidious sins that is so sneaky that we don't even really know we're struggling with pride until we find ourselves in the middle of the fall. And that's a painful place to be. This fall on the Prayers o...

"When I grow up, I'm never going to do that." Have you ever said those words?

Oh, it's so frustrating! And sometimes it can be as silly as a verbal phrase that you re...
