A Hospitable Heart for the Holidays
Oh yes, it’s that time of year again and I am soooo beyond excited for the upcoming holidays. At my house we have many traditions that I like to hold dear to my heart and it’s what makes me so cheery right around this time of year.

It Is Finished
There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
Virtue and Chivalry in the 21st Century
The other day I was on Facebook and an ad for fashion came up that had the tagline describing their clothes as: “Noble, Elegant, Sexy, and Pure.” I thought, “Huh, that doesn’t sound right.” I mean, how did the word “Sexy” sneak its way in between the three other words?

Gaining Patience Through Trials and Tribulation
The topic of this article is having patience in tribulation. I would like to share a personal experience with you to start things off. When I was 16 I was moving some very heavy furniture by myself. (I’ve never been the one to wait for the man power!) Well the next day my lower back was in terrible pain. I didn’t know what was wrong with it at the time but after several cat scans, x-rays, and..
Can I be a Stay at Home Daughter and Still Get a College Education?
In June of this year, a big thing happened for me. I graduated from highschool. I had been homeschooled all my life and loved it, so it was a bittersweet thing for me when I was finished with it. Some of my other friends were graduating too and talking about what colleges they were going to and what degrees they wanted to get. I was really happy and excited for them and thought that it was..

Lori tossed her books onto her nightstand and then threw herself on her bed. She began crying and sobbing into her pillow. God had finally blessed her with an amazing man in her life and things were going great between them. She just couldn’t understand why she felt so scared and so upset.
