For Everything There Is A Season
Join me, Alison Elizabeth as we read Ecclesiastes 3:1-8. "These few verses are absolutely beautiful. My absolute favorite is Verse 4: a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; Today I am laughing and dancing. I am learning how to celebrate my accomplishments. Something that was so very hard for me to do in the past. Today is a big day for me because I get to celebrate 50 episodes, 50+ hours spent reading and writing what the word of God means to me. 50 times t...

Divine Delight
Join me, Alison Elizabeth as we read Psalm 37:4 together. Take delight in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart. "This is so simple right? Then why do we all claim to love Jesus (me included) yet yearn for more. If we claim to love Jesus we must be taking delight in him, therefore why do our hearts still desire for things we may not have? It just got me thinking. Do we desire the Lord, so that we can take delight in the things we want most? Great health, new home, fun season...

So Many Times We Fail
Join me Alison Elizabeth as we look to Psalm 73:26 for guidance on what to do when we fail. "In any season of life, there were... So many times I told myself I was going to journal everyday, and I didn't. So many times I told myself I am going to pray and I didn't. Most of these so many times end in my heart ache. Wishing I was further along, stronger with myself, closer to God, etc. You name it. Our flesh fails us. Our habits fail us. Our systems fail us. But this verse says... But when we ...

Join me, Alison Elizabeth as we read Matthew 5:5. I pray we learn to humble ourselves and serve one another. "Humble yourself.

An Anchor of Hope
Join me, Alison Elizabeth as we dive into Hebrews 6:19 and look to Jesus for Hope in today's climate. "I love that the verse talks about an anchor.

Don't feed into the fear and the anger. Just continue to go with the motions of the ocean, yet remember you are tied down. Your anchor is Jesus and his word." ...

Never Going Back
Join me, Alison Elizabeth as we talk about the freedom Christ bought for us! "We never have to go back to our old ways of life. Ever. What Christ did on calvary 2,000 years will never be topped.

Not literal death, we know we will all one day pass over to heaven. But freedom from the death of sin. You are not bound to shackles on this earth. Y...
