Don’t Delay!

I wrote this post a few days ago.  I’m glad I waited to send it because today the pastor shared that NOW is the time to follow Christ and to be His disciple.  Many of us believe, but are we choosing to give all to Him, right NOW.  Here is a great verse added to…

Every time I think of you, I give thanks to my God.(Philipians 1:3)

I have never known completely who has joined Arrested by Grace, unless you’ve personally told me. Sitting and waiting for my hair appointment today, I discovered that I can see who joined, because I have the author rights to edit, etc.  No one else can see your email.  I sat there reading the list of friends and…

Naked and Unashamed

Now the man and his wife were both naked, but they felt no shame. Genesis 2:25 This verse has always intrigued me, because the author of Genesis, Moses, must have been reflecting on how awesome it was back then, before sin came into the world.

“Did you know mommy, when we do things for other people, we are Jesus to them, because He needs us to be His hands and feet.”

Further Thoughts on Approval Addiction from readers
