By: Hannah Suttle “And her adversary also provoked her sore, for to make her fret, because the Lord had shut up her womb. And as he did so year by year, when she went up to the house of the Lord, so she provoked her; therefore she wept, and did not eat.” I Samuel 1:6-7 Read I Samuel 1 -2 Have you ever just felt so overwhelmed by your trial, wondering why God doesn’t see fit to answer your prayer for deliverance? While I’m sure we’ve all been here at some point, Hannah had to

By: Samantha Brown "Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward." Psalm 127:3 The other day we were out at the park, and a kind older lady was also there with what seemed to be her grandchildren. She saw me taking some photos of my little ones and said, "Ma'am, you have four beautiful blessings right there. Cherish them. These moments go by so quickly!" The longer I am a mother, the more I treasure the time spent with my little ones. It's

By: Kate Ledbetter And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28 I've heard it my whole life: "Don't worry! It will all work out. The Bible says, 'All things work together for good'!" I received Christ at 19 years old, a married preacher's wife. I was already a Bible college graduate, who grew up in Christian school and in a preacher's home. I didn't think there was much I would learn

By:Aleah Winburn “But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.” — 1 Peter 1:15–16 I do not know how many times I heard the phrase “Because I said so!” growing up. In my younger, more rebellious, pre-salvation years, my favorite response to my parents’ commands was, “Why?” Although not always, most of the time I had good intentions in asking. I simply wanted to understand the reason behi

By: Lauren Speares “Delight thyself also in the Lord; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.” Psalm 37:4 Psalm 37:4 is a verse I have heard preached on and quoted by great men of God my entire life. I have even quoted this verse to myself and others as encouragement. When I think of this verse, I immediately think, Okay, if I’m happy serving the Lord, then He will give me everything I desire. Although that is not completely wrong, I have learned there is far more

By: Grace Shiflett “And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is an holy man of God, which passeth by us continually.” 2 Kings 4:9 In these verses we read about the Shunammite woman. If you’re not familiar with her story, I would encourage you to take the time to read everything the Bible records about her. I want to challenge your heart from the example she set for us and from the beautiful insight we’re given into her desires. God called her a “great w

By: Lydia Riley “I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.” John 10:9 Hosea was asked of the Lord to be an object lesson for Israel and Judah at great personal expense. He was asked to do the unthinkable, to love a woman of whoredoms and to love children of whoredoms. He gave his faithful and devoted love to someone defiled and unworthy, one who he knew would be unfaithful and would break his heart into a million p

By: Belinda Young “Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.” Hebrews 13:5 It is always fun to be around friends and family having a good time and enjoying each other’s company. It is fun to laugh and play games, feeling the love and kindness of people you love. I am sure you have been in the midst of having a good time, and somebody for some reason, gets bent out of

By: Anja Meyer "Pray without ceasing." I Thessalonians 5:17 I am the head chef, master baker, educator, medical assistant, cleaner, health advisor, full-time trainer and entertainer, but most of all, a diligent teacher of God's precious Word, all rolled into one. This is because I am privileged to be called “mum” by eight beautiful children. I could not do anything to deserve or earn this - it was an amazing gift from the Father. More than all the titles and positions I have
