Scripture: "Give thanks to the Lord for He is good, His faithful loves endures forever." Psalm 118:1

Reflection: Have you ever heard the term, "What you allow increases"? It's basically saying that when we partake in something once, our human nature is to do so more and more. For example, we are gluten-free by necessity. When my son eats gluten his body has an adverse reaction. However, the side-effects are not so severe that they completely debilitate him, they simply keep him from feeling...

Are you familiar with the book of Hosea? It's one of those little books tucked away in the Old Testament. The book may be little, but the message of Hosea is anything but small. I find so much comfort reading the account of Hosea. If you're unfamiliar with the message, I encourage you to read it. For today though, we'll enjoy the "cliff notes" version for reflection. Hosea is a man after God's own heart. God told Hosea to find a wife, sounds good, right? Not so fast. He also showed Hosea that...

It took me many years and much spiritual growth to finally understand what makes us valuable. Contrary to the voice that shouts at us from the television, from movies, billboards and magazines, and sometimes those around us, we are not how we look. Oh, the freedom in the revelation that our “body” is not our “self.”

Yes, I exercise and eat right. Yes, I know that my body is the temple of God’s Holy Spirit and that my goal is to honor God with a lifestyle of progressive health and fitness....

“But let all those rejoice who put their trust in You; Let them ever shout for joy, because You defend them; Let those also who love Your name Be joyful in You.” Psalm 5:11

Do you ever consider that in scripture, joy is an instruction? We are told that we must choose joy! Sometimes choosing joy is easy. Sometimes choosing joy seems utterly impossible. What we know from scripture though is that we always have the capacity to choose joy because it is given to us when we receive the Holy Spirit....

Scripture: “No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon [money, possessions, fame, status, or whatever is valued more than the Lord]." Matthew 6:24

Reflection: Most of us don't intentionally offer our hearts to false Gods. Most of us don't intentionally go into the pursuit of better health or weight loss ready to bow to the process above all else. The truth is though,...

Scripture: "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, and today, and forever." Hebrews 13:8

Reflection: Life is ever-changing. It's one thing we can count on this side of heaven! This year has been a profound reminder of that truth, hasn't it? Sometimes change brings with it excitement and joy. Other times, change can take our breath away, and feel as though the rug has been pulled straight out from under us. Maybe you're experiencing personal change, maybe a healthy journey, a move, a change in...
