God forgave us before we deserved it, and His light shines brightly through us when we do the same for others.

Only He can turn our tears and mourning into dancing and singing for joy in His presence forever!

When we look and watch, we see how He faithfully strengthens and protects us through every situation.

We can thank God today for the woman He used to give us life! Happy Mother’s Day to moms everywhere! 💐

Sacrificial love is a small price to pay to spread the fragrance of our Savior who gave His life for us.

Leap for joy and sing His praises…celebrate the Lord in whom we trust!

There is not greater joy than to know we are on the path the Lord has for us!

When we rest in Him we are trusting the Lord to work mightily behind the scenes on our behalf.

Gracious words not only bring sweetness to those we encourage, but to our own souls as well.

How the red blood of Jesus cleanses our sin-blackened souls and makes them whiter than snow is a mystery that only faith can explain to the believing heart.

This verse not only celebrates Solomon and his bride, it also celebrates Jesus and His bride, we the church! 🙂

We can trust God’s faithfulness and praise Him even through our darkest valleys…all the way to the other side.

We have a Giant God who fights for us so that we can rest in His loving care.

We can fully trust the God who clothes the fields to clothe His children in splendor!

Praise God who gives us everything, even the very air we breathe and the ability to take our next breath.

Battles come in all shapes and sizes…people, things, circumstances…but our Lord Jesus Christ brings us through every one, every time…victoriously!

Even if we can’t sing worth a lick, we can make music with our souls to God who keeps our hearts steadfast! 😄🎵

When we earnestly take our worries, concerns and anxieties to God, He gives us peace beyond all understanding.

He can lead us in such a way that even our very lives are a beautiful aroma to those around us.

When we choose to be content we have riches money can’t buy!

He watches over us when we are tired and weary to the very core of our spirit. Thank you Jesus!

We can approach our Heavenly Father with confidence, knowing He sees us with a heart filled with grace and mercy.

We are made perfect forever through Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross of Calvary. It is finished!

Even when we fall short we can trust that He will finish what He started in an through us.

God has blessed us beyond measure in realms beyond all we see.

There is nothing better than spending time at the feet of Jesus.

We hear it said that seeing is believing, but with God believing is seeing!

We are His children, not because of who we are or what we’ve done, but because we receive and believe in Who He is and what He has done for us.

God’s Word gives us so many wonderful things to think about…

He sacrificed all He had so that we could have it all!

We can fully put our faith in the One who loves us so fiercely that He gave His very life for us!

Hallelujah! Jesus is alive!!!

He provided everything we need for righteousness in Jesus who knew no sin.

Our Heavenly Father chose to pay an outrageously high price to lavish His love and grace on us!! How extraorndinarily amazing is that?

Perfectly blameless? Perfectly? Me? Us?? We can’t do it on our own, but He can… and He will faithfully do it! 

God’s love for us is so extraordinary that He withheld nothing, not even the life of His only Son!

Jesus, our perfect example, showed us how to stand firm in our faith, how to be courageous and strong…and mostly, how to love!

Regardless of battles, circumstances or feelings, we can hold on tightly to hope when it is deeply rooted in our ever faithful Lord of all hope!

We are His dear children, and even when we mess up royally, Jesus is our Royal Advocate! That’s right, He sticks up for us, knowing that the Father who can see through mountains, can’t see anything through the precious blood of His Son!

When we place our messy lives in the LORD’s most capable hands, He gently molds each of us into a beautiful work of art, His Masterpiece!

Since He spared nothing – not One thing – for our very salvation, we can freely trust our gracious God with our deepest needs and desires.

Whether we pass through deep rivers of difficulties or flaming hot trials, HE promises to be with us to the other side.

When we fix our eyes and thoughts on Jesus, He brings everything into an eternal perspective. This is the place where we find true rest.

He surrounds us with His love and protection; His hand is upon us, each of us. This is beyond our comprehension, but through faith we trust and believe it is true… because it IS! 😊

Corporate worship is a blessing from the LORD! He knew we would grow and flourish together in His house…Happy Sunday!

God’s Word is life giving…when we feast on it, it feeds our mind, body and soul! Lord, make us hungry! 😋

He took all our sin upon Himself and arrayed us in His robe of righteousness. I like to call it The Great Exchange. 💕

Rest assured, our limitless God has set us apart for His purposes, and He hears every cry of our heart!

He goes before us, is with us and is behind us….we are never alone! And of course, I love that this verse says ‘do not be discouraged’ because in essence it says, ‘be encouraged!’ Now that’s encouraging! 😊

Perfect peace finds us when we trust in and focus fully on our faithful, perfect Lord.

Nothing is more valuable than what we have in Christ Jesus our Lord…

His miracles are everywhere…in the breath of life He has given to you today, for starters! 🙂

Today’s encouraging thought is more of a praise… Thank You, LORD, for reminding us that YOU came to carry our anxieties and cares for us!

We need not fear… He is holding our hand and helping us every step of the way.

He who is worthy of all the glory, so graciously cares for us and lovingly crowns us with glory and honor!

Talking to God is an amazing alternative to anxiety… So, why worry when we can pray!?!

He hears your requests, even in the early morning silence… You can count on Him!
