When the Lord unveils His plans, we often receive them with awe—our hearts race, our imaginations expand, and for a moment, we believe that anything is possible. But then, something happens.

A Mother’s Wisdom
On my heart today are the beautiful mothers raising sons, those entrusted by God to shape future leaders, servants, and kingdom-minded men.

This wise mother imparted timeless principles to her son that still resonate loudly today—principles we must […]

The Wisdom of the Wise Woman of Abel: A Warrior’s Strategy
Over the past few weeks, I have contemplated the concept of walking as “Lady Wisdom.” Reflecting on the roots of wisdom, I often cite the book of Proverbs, which teaches that a wise woman builds her house, but a foolish one tears it down with her own hands (Proverbs 14:1). This verse took on new meaning when […]

The Uncontainable Love of Christ
This week, during our women’s Bible study, I experienced a moment that left me profoundly changed.

She then posed a thought-provoking question: […]

Remaining Expectant in Hope During Perilous Times
One of the most astounding responses in Scripture is Christ’s calmness and peace during raging storms. When the disciples panicked as their boat was tossed by the wind and waves, Jesus was asleep.
