Last night when I was getting into bed, I opened the devotional app on my phone, and decided to read the daily devotional by Kenneth Copeland. The moment I read the first paragraph, I knew I had to share this powerful truth with all of you!

This devotional really hit home in my heart when it comes to living a healthy and balanced lifestyle, because let's face it...We all have days where we ate way beyond the point of feeling satisfied, or we don't make time to be active and get exercise, or we...

Did you know that if you have made Jesus the Lord of your life that you are never alone?

The Bible says in Deuteronomy 31:6, “Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you.” This is one of many promises that the Lord gave us that when we invite Him into our lives, that He will never leave us.

This is such an awesome truth for SO many reasons. I sure do find this truth comforting, especially in...

You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit--fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.~John 15:16

I'm sure we have all felt like that, whether it's for a day, a...

"As a man thinks in his heart so is he" ~ Proverbs 23:7

This verse tells us that what we believe in our hearts about ourselves will inevitably be what we become. So, how do we change what we believe in our hearts about ourselves, and in turn become what God wants us to be?

I hope this dashing devotional video helps you learn some simple...

“Patient endurance is what you need now, so that you will continue to do God's will. Then you will receive all that He has promised.” ~ Hebrews 10:36

God has really been speaking to me about patience lately. Although I believe it applies to many different areas of my life, one of the most common areas that I believe that impatience gets a lot of people (including myself at times), is in the area weight loss or overall health/fitness goals.

We all know that it takes time to put weight on, and it...

"Fear not; you will no longer live in shame. Don't be afraid; there is no more disgrace for you. You will no longer remember the shame of your youth and the sorrows of widowhood.”~ Isaiah 54:4

I love this verse. It is so personal to me, because I spent so many years living in shame for how I treated my body....Which I now see was nothing more than the enemy trying to keep me in bondage to my past. Whether it was a recent binge he tried to bring me back to...or even something I did weeks,...

The Dashing 30 Day Devotional was something that was on my heart to write for a long time. It all began one day when I was taking a walk, listening to a Christian book on my iPod. I began to think about how God had used books, sermon series, study guides, and devotionals so many times throughout my life to get me rooted in the truth in certain areas.

Suddenly, and idea came to me…I should write out a 30 day devotional using the truths that God has shown me over the years. As I sat down to...

"Don't Let You're Hearts be Troubled, Trust in God & Trust Also In Me." ~ John 14:1

We see in this scripture that Jesus was telling His disciples that He was going away, yet He was instructing them to not let their hearts be troubled, but rather to trust Him. Notice He told them NOT TO LET THEIR HEARTS BE TROUBLED.

This shows us that we have the choice to let our hearts be troubled. If we decide that we are going to truly trust Jesus, then we have to do so...Period. When troubling thoughts or...

I would be lying if I said I wasn't ever tempted to compare myself with others. In fact, I truly believe that this is something we are all must deal with at one point or another. I used to think it was only natural to have thoughts such as, "I wish I had her hair, clothes, body, etc." However, I have found through the Word of God that there are many verses that warn us not to entertain such thoughts.

The reason being is that God created each one of us for a unique purpose, and to fulfill...
