I once was lost in darkest night
Yet thought I knew the way
The sin that promised joy and life
Had led me to the grave
I had no hope that You would own
A rebel to Your will
And if You had not loved me first
I would refuse You still

But as I ran my hell-bound race
Indifferent to the cost
You looked upon my helpless state
And led me
You suffered in my place
You bore the wrath reserved for me
Now all I know is grace

Hallelujah! All I have is Christ
Hallelujah! Jesus is my life

from ‘religiously right’ to Jesus, only Jesus

I sat in the pew, taking notes, attentive to the pastor in front of me reading the story of a Canaanite woman’s encounter with Jesus (Matthew 15:21-28).  I confess the story is one I mostly glaze over, because it seems…

one of the best habits we can cultivate

I know what is said about making a new habit: it takes 21 days. But what if a lifetime is needed? There is one habit I have been forming (yes, still forming) consciously and intensely and clumsily in my adult…

chronic pain: exchanging my brokenness for God’s wholeness

There is something about suffering. For those of you who read this not near me on a daily basis, a little context: for 2+ years, I experienced constant pain in my neck. What began as a (surprising) pinched nerve after…

My desire to be good enough grew bigger than my desire for God

In grace, He leads you where you didn’t plan to go in order to produce in you what you couldn’t achieve on your own. In these moments, He works to alter the values of your heart so that you let…

releasing more of me to receive more of God

I need a daily intervention for this reality: choosing Jesus means you live entirely for Someone else. Choosing Jesus changes the game from “you’re the best, you can do this!” to “God is the best. You can’t, but He can.”…

a godly woman’s strength is hope in her God

The deepest root of a Christian woman is hope in God, and it yields this strong tree of fearlessness in the face of suffering. Do you remember my favorite verse in the Proverbs 31 woman chapter? Proverbs 31:25: Strength and dignity are her…

asking God for the priorities I need

Sitting around a living room with friends I have come to love, talking about God and the Bible, is one of my favorite things about church. The other week it was Matthew 6, next week it’s discipleship, and the next we…

putting my scale in the attic

It’s amazing how distorted my thinking can be sometimes… in the name of self-discipline, of course. Body image and the number on the scale is an example of that distorted thinking. This one was a tough one for me to…

Clothe Yourself With Grace: Brittany

Your adornment must not be merely external–braiding the hair, and wearing gold jewelry, or putting on dresses; but let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the imperishable quality of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is precious…
