Today we begin our journey through Psalm 119.

Psalm 119 is the longest Psalm of the Psalter and the longest chapter in the Bible. The authorship of the psalm is attributed to King David, but the time of its writing is uncertain. It consists of 22 parts, the number of letters in the Hebrew alphabet. It is an acrostic, each of the 22...

The “Why” of Reading the Bible

As we begin our reading through the New Testament today, I felt it would be a good time to revisit the “Why” of doing so. I have met many women over the years who say they believe in Jesus for salvation, yet have no desire, and make no time to be in the Word of...

Do the Next Thing

Let’s admit it. Life can be overwhelming at times. As a professed overthinker, I can succumb to “analysis paralysis”. All of the things I need to do, should do, ought to do, want to do – swirl around in my mind constantly. Often times it may be a season of life where we aren’t sure...

Be Vigilant.

My grandson and I are working on scripture memory as part of our homeschool day. I used to do it regularly, but as with everything, it is very easy to drift away from it. Our first memory verse is Proverbs 4:23 (we are working through verse 26). Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from...

Pursuing a Proverbs 31 Life

Jenn Jones — Mon, 17 Jul 2023 11:03:06 +0000

I have been thinking a lot lately about what it means to be a godly woman who pursues righteousness and the glory of God. It is an intentional, diligent, and continuous effort. It is being vigilant over my heart, mind, and emotions. It means setting myself – my desires, my opinions, my goals – in...
