“Empowered women empower women.”  Lately this is one of my favorite quotes.  It is completely 100% true.  However, really what does this quote entirely mean? What does it mean to be empowered?  The definition of empowered from the Merriam-Webster dictionary is “having the knowledge, confidence, means, or ability to do things or make decisions forContinue reading “Empowering women”

I am doing something different with this blog.  Last summer I started to really enjoy writing and reading poetry.  I still have a lot to learn when it comes to writing poetry. However, this was the poem that I feel is my best work and one that I actually use as an inspiration in myContinue reading “Sunflower poem blog”

Lately my devotional has been a deep dive into the lives and prophecies of the minor prophets.  One of the minor prophets is Hosea. Hosea is a book in the Bible that describes God’s heart for his people.  Even though the nation had been unfaithful to the Lord, often being compared to an unfaithful wife,Continue reading “God calls his people back to him”

This last month, March, was women’s history month. Coincidentally, I also happened to read two books about Godly women for my devotionals throughout the month.  These were two books that described in great detail, stories about godly women and how they inspired many, both men and women, in their devotion and love for the Lord.  Continue reading “Women’s History month Devotional reflection”

I realized very recently that I have not yet on my blog talked about the very verse that my blog is named after.  The verse that inspired my blog is Colossians 3:23 which says; “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the LORD, not for human masters.”  This isContinue reading “The verse of my Blog: Colossians 3:23”

As per my theme this year being Freedom, I have another reflection piece on what it means to be completely free.  This being giving away the control over my life to the Lord, where I am not the one that is in charge, but rather God will be.  I never considered myself a control freak,Continue reading “Giving away control”

For those who know me, they know that I love the bachelor.  I know it is pretty terrible moral wise and not that realistic, but it is amazing drama television.  I don’t like drama in my life, but I need a bit of it in my television shows. However, this last bachelor, Peter Weber, hadContinue reading “You can’t always follow just your heart.”

This blog post may be one of my most vulnerable and real.  This year I became a teacher, and I have certainly learned a lot. (A blog post coming later about that.)  However, there was something that I have learned recently about myself that I don’t fully like, and I need to reevaluate this.  ThisContinue reading “I guess I’m doing my Job”

“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.” Matthew 7:7-8 Matthew chapter 7, verses 7 and 8 aren’t my least favorite verses, but these verses are definitely not my favorite.  I can’t tell you why, but it was just not a verseContinue reading “A new take on a least favorite verse”

One of my favorite sections of the Bible has got to be the Proverbs 31 woman.  I have always loved that passage because I think the way that the woman is described is incredibly challenging yet strong.  There are often times they believe that this is about being the perfect wife and mother, and whileContinue reading “Why I love the Proverbs 31 woman”
