Category Archives for "Tips & Lessons From My Faith Journey"

My faith journey and walk with the Lord have been rollercoasters. Why? Some of it is my stubbornness, and some of it is this crazy thing called life. But no matter what, Jesus is my savior, and I will follow Him no matter what. These blog posts are some lessons and tips I’ve learned as I’ve gotten closer (and further away) from the Lord during my faith journey.

5-Minute Self-Care Ideas: Quick and Easy Ways to Boost Your Well-Being

Imagine sliding into a warm delicious-smelling bubble bath after a long day at work. Or curling up on the couch with your favorite mystery as you try to figure out whodunit.

But let’s be real, when you’re a busy woman working full time you don’t feel like you have time for self-care of any kind.

And I feel like the older I get the more I feel guilty for wanting to do anything I consider to be fun or not productive.

Being over 35 is a trip ain’t it? But the thing is, you shouldn’t feel guilty for “indulging “ in self-care or even feel like you don’t have time.

It can be especially hard to take care of yourself if you are struggling with depression or anxiety (or ADHD) like I have had in the past. The guilt is extra real then. Continue reading

Powerful Prayers for Debt Cancellation: Finding Financial Freedom Through Faith

To say financial burdens are overwhelming is an understatement. Debt can be soul-crushing. I hate debt and it always casts a dark shadow over me until I’ve paid it off.

When I’m in debt, it weighs heavily on my mind. If I’m being honest (and I am), I would want my debt to be gone overnight. I don’t want a debt snowball or a debt avalanche. I want it to go poof and vanish into the night.

However, is this really possible? Can you just pray for debt cancellation and it actually happen?   

I don’t want to make you any promises that your debt will disappear. But as Christian women, we do know we have a God who listens and assures us that we are not alone in our financial struggles. 

We also know that all things are possible with God. Continue reading

Powerful Prayers to Get Out of Debt: A Faith-Based Guide for Christian Women

Are you weighed down by financial struggles? Is your heart too burdened to pray?  

At one point or another in life, we would be faced with financial issues, but as Christian women, we have a firm foundation to stand on prayer and unwavering faith. 

God is always ready to hear our prayerful pleas to get out of debt. And with his intervention, we are guaranteed victory over debt and financial freedom financially. 

I’ve been in a place of financial struggles before, and let’s be real prayer was at the bottom of my to-do list. It felt more easier to blame God than pray to attain freedom from debt.

I mean he’s all-knowing, that means he’s aware of my financial struggles, why can’t he intervene?

He is a loving father, he is ready to help us through tough times, we just need to take on humility, and approach him in prayers.

This post will guide you through powerful prayers and practical steps you can implore on your journey to attaining a debt-free life.  Continue reading

3 Must Have Faith Journal Ideas To Elevate Your Quiet Time With The Lord!

purple box and white letters faith journal ideas with purple printables in back

If you’re looking for some faith journal ideas to take your Bible study routine up a notch then you are right where you need to be my friend! 

Faith journaling is a spiritual practice that involves writing down your thoughts and reflections in a journal as a way of deepening your relationship with God and cultivating an intimate worship experience.

While journaling, you can record your thoughts, prayers, dreams, or anything that you feel like you want to reflect on and explore. It is an excellent way to create a space for reflection and self-exploration.

With journaling, you can explore and process your thoughts, feelings, and dreams in a very creative way.

There are many ways to go about journaling—you can start with free-form writing and then move to third-person writing, create a prayer journal, or even begin a gratitude journal.

You can journal just about anything, including your hopes and dreams, your feelings, experiences, observations, creative ideas, and much more! Journaling is a great way to get in touch with yourself, reflect on your life, and have a conversation with God.

It is a wonderful and creative way to spend time with God and receive His guidance, love, and encouragement.

Have you ever tried faith journaling? If not, then you must try it! I know everyone’s always telling you to try this or that but I promise you this time it’s different.

When you create a faith journal, you begin to explore your relationship with Jesus, study the Bible, and pray in a whole new way.

It really is life-changing. Once again, an overused phrase but think about it. How could a strong relationship with God NOT be life-changing? Nearly impossible!Continue reading

Christian Gratitude Affirmations For Your Gratitude Journal

Have you struggled to complain? No? Yeah, me either.

In fact, complaining and being discontented with your life is one of the easiest things to do. And yet, as Christian women, we are called by Christ to be grateful and thankful for our blessings. But this is can be hard to do so what can we do to make gratitude come a little bit easier?

Well, one of the best ways to quickly remind yourself of what you should be grateful for is by keeping gratitude affirmations in your journal.

Have you heard the hymn that says, count your blessings…name them one by one and it’ll surprise you what the Lord has done?

Well, there’s a reason why this song was written…and why gratitude is mentioned so often in the Bible. I’ve learned through the years that one of the ways to live a more fulfilled life is to first show gratitude for the things I already have.

If you struggle with having a spirit of gratitude, don’t worry! Today, I’ll share with you some Christian gratitude affirmations and how they can help you cultivate a grateful heart.Continue reading

8 Ways We Benefit From Studying The Word Of God

teal rectangle benefits of studying the Bible in black letters purple Bible in back

8 Amazing Benefit Of Bible Study 

Have you ever felt like studying the Bible was just a task to be endured and checked off your to-do list? There are some Christians who have never felt this I’m sure but I’m sad to say that I am not one of them.

Setting aside time to study the Bible can frankly seem like an interruption to our busy day. Because what we are doing instead (you know scrolling through Facebook or Instagram) is so much more important. I hope you are familiar with sarcasm.

If not, then you might not have realized that I do not believe catching up on Facebook “news” is more important than reading the word of God. It’s just that it’s easy to get caught up in everyday life and seemingly not have any time to spend with the Lord.

If you’ve ever felt this way, then I sit back as I share with you 10 reasons why studying the Bible is awesome and vital to our relationship with the Lord!

Oh yeah, and this post contains affiliate links to great products that will help you in your health journey. I will get a commission if you decide to buy from these links. Please let me know if you have any questions. Continue reading
