Happy Sunday!
Pick a sister, or two or ten and PRAY!
Setting aside time to specifically and intentionally pray for someone else not only fills your heart with joy, it also draws you closer to the heart of Jesus.
In Matthew 5:44, Jesus very clearly tell us to pray for our enemies. Sometimes we forget that our sisters in Christ, can also be our “enemies” too. We are to love one another, pray for one another, serve one another just like Jesus came and did.
So, this week, I challenge you to think of at least one or two people, more if you choose. Let one be someone you’re close with and already love deeply. Choose another that may be your “enemy.” Then pray for those sisters of yours for the next 30 days and see what God does in not only their life, but also in yours.
Now tag someone 👇🏻 and challenge them to do the same!

It is well with my soul....

When was the last time you were able to say that? This song keeps repeating in my head right now. A beautiful reminder to trust Him with everything. The waves and wind still know His name. Rest easy today, friends.

Bethel Music's collective of worship leaders aim to write and record songs that carry the culture of heaven and the heart of God. We exist to pursue the hear...

Happy Monday lovely girls!!!
This very thing has been going through my mind lately, especially over the last few months. Where is God? What is he doing? What is he saying?
I asked Jesus into my heart when I was just 5. I’ve lived my life doing my best to please him and follow his path for me. I’ve made mistakes, taken some detours and had to find my way back a time or two. And he was always faithful to meet me whoever I was when I called for him. But over the last few months, it’s been harder to see him, to find him. Church doors were closed and my living room didn’t “feel” like church. The friends that gave me life and that I saw him most through, were separated from me by a screen and time. So I had to look deeper...
When I started looking for him outside of church walls, in my “physical” friend time or even in my “doing” of all things serving, I found him in the most UNEXPECTED places. I found him in my morning shower. I found him in a long hug from one of my kids. I found him in some eggs dropped off at my house to surprise my kids at Easter. I found him in the long overdue in person chat with my parents. I found him at my sister pool watching our kids laugh and play together. I found him as I watched the 80 yr old man holding the door open for a little girl walking into the store. I found him playing UNO as a family on a Wednesday night. I found him.
The older I get the more I realize that Jesus likes to be on the move. He doesn’t stay put for long. Does he show up in our church services? Absolutely! Does he reside in our friendships and those we do life with? I hope so!!! Is he settled in nicely in our quiet place for our quiet time with him? Yes. He loves it there. But is that the only place we can find him? A BIG FAT NO!!!
If you’re asking for a move of God and having trouble finding it, I encourage you to also, like me, look a little deeper. Ask to have eyes to see him more clearly and choose to break up your own preconceived ideas of where he SHOULD be and where he actually WANTS to be. Once I started doing that, I found him everywhere!!! I found him IN ME!! He was there the whole time. I just had to look a little deeper. -Linds

“May the Lord bless and protect you; may the Lord’s face radiate with joy because of you; may he be gracious to you, show you his favor and give you his peace.” Numbers 6:24-26 TPT
Praying this over your kiddos, your families, teachers and YOU today as school starts again. This year may look a little different but that doesn’t mean He can’t do big things in unexpected ways!!
Believing for a great school year ahead for everyone!!

“Be still and KNOW that I am God...” Psalm 46:10
Hey girls! It’s been a minute and times have changed a lot over the last few weeks. Times like this call for stillness. Whether you find yourself at home in quarantine, making decisions on what to do with your children for school, working from home or anything else that may look different from your norm and cause you to feel overwhelmed, take a few minutes today to STOP. Still your heart. God is close. He is gentle and he is kind. He hasn’t forgotten you. He sees. He knows. Allow him to help you still your heart today and remain confident in KNOWING that he is God and he is faithful to bring you through whatever it is that causes your heart trouble.
We love you. We are praying for you.

YOU’RE A GREAT MOM!!!!
Let’s STOP and PRAY today for all the mommas and families making very big decisions today. Let’s choose to support each other rather than judge someone else’s decision. Let’s be women that cheer each other on rather than make others feel guilty for not making our same choice.
Ladies, don’t forget the message from back in the fall.... YOU WERE MADE READY!!!! In every season, in every situation and for this very school year, YOU WERE MADE READY!!! Don’t let the enemy lie to you. Whether you are choosing to send your babies to school, to pull them and do virtual, homeschool or send them to private or even if you are continuing to homeschool, you AND your kids were made ready for this season.
“For God did not give you the spirit of timidity or cowardice or fear, but of power and of love and of sound judgement and personal discipline.” 2 Timothy 1:7 AMP
Send a mom or anyone in your life making this tough decision today, a text or call them and remind them that they HAVE BEEN MADE READY!!!
Let’s also take some time to pray for our teachers, principals and administrators - they have a hard job and the road ahead isn’t the straightest. Let’s cover them and our schools in prayer today as well. For the Holy Spirit to guide them, give them wisdom and peace and that He will fill the rooms and hallways of every school, co-op and home this year.
We are praying for you today. None of this comes as a surprise to God and He will guide you to the right decision for you, your kids and your family today!!! We love you

Who has invested into you? Who have you allowed to have a voice in your life?
It’s hard sometimes, especially in times like these, to look OUTWARD instead of INWARD. To lol at how someone else has changed your life, perspective, come alongside you when you needed someone most or even just been an ear when you needed someone to listen. All of these things is someone else making an INVESTMENT into your life, whether it be for a lifetime or just in the moment. They made a choice to investment and their investment was YOU!
Take time today or even this week, and think about who has invested into you. Who has chosen you to be someone they SEE during a time where it was easier and even understood for them to focus on themselves instead. Then, send them a text, pick up the phone and call them, send them a note in the mail or some cookies through Grub Hub. Tell them how thankful you are for them.
Now, go INVEST in someone else! Today. This week. This month. Make your life about others - it has the best return on investment.

Which kind of person are you; the one who coaches or the one that disciples?
One strongly points people to Jesus and the other points people to ourselves. If we are living a life that is consumed with Jesus, everything we do should reflect it and point people to him. Whether it’s our family, our friends, co-workers or even just acquaintances, discipleship should be how we choose to walk in our relationships, day in and day out.
Jesus didn’t coach. He discipled. He lead by example, with grace and love. As his disciples, let’s do our best to remember to always be pointing people back to him and away from us.
Happy Wednesday!! We love you and are praying for you

Beauty comes from the inside and is a true matter of the heart. How we treat people is not only what makes us beautiful, but how we introduce Jesus to the world.

Obeying..... it’s never an easy thing to do. Especially when you may not have a clear picture of what the future looks like when you do.
What area is God calling you to obey in? What is he asking of you that may seem a bit uncomfortable? What is he asking you to lay down, maybe forever or maybe for a season, in order to get closer to him or give more room for what you’ve been called to?
I can’t imagine what Abraham must have been feeling that day he walked up the mountain with Isaac, knowing the whole time what the Lord had asked of him. Isaac was his promise fulfilled and now, he was being asked by the very one who fulfilled it, to lay it back down. I can’t ever seem to wrap my head around it. He had to be grieving, maybe a little angry and maybe even a little scared, wondering if he was really hearing God right. His heart had to be breaking. He didn’t want to sacrifice his son. The son they had prayed for for what seemed like a lifetime. But his devotion to God and what he asked of him was a stronger force in his life than anything his heart could possibly try and sway him by. I could be very wrong, but I believe his obedience and willingness to lay something down that meant so much to him, was what not only protected his promise but also gave him “descendants as many as the stars in the sky.”
What’s on the other side of the discomfort, uncertainty and even fear of your obedience? I don’t know. But my prayer is that we will be like Abraham and have an unwavering trust in our Father, that no matter what is asked of us, we always choose to walk in obedience. Even if that looks like doing it afraid.
