I have loved reading the Old Testament recently. It's amazing to read so many miracles and powerful stories. In Exodus 14, there were two million people on their way to the land of milk and honey when they approached the Red Sea. They were facing major...
Today, Colby and I are celebrating our 4 year anniversary. I know everyone always says this, but it's gone by SO fast! It's hard to believe that three out of the four years have been filled with unexpected trials. Between the loss of our nephew...
Psalm 68 reflects on the glory and power of the Lord. Psalm 68:19 says, "Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens." Can you praise God when you are facing difficulties? The preceding verse says that when we trust and praise...
