Letting God Tear Down the Fences
by Ministry Support on December 25th, 2025
“He himself is our peace.” - Ephesians 2:14 Christmas morning carries a different kind of excitement. The world slows down, and even for a few minutes, the heart feels a hint of peace it has been craving all year. Moments like this make it easier to notice the things inside you that have been closed off. Fences go up slowly. A disappointment pushes one board into place. A painful conversation adds...  Read More

Remembering the Purpose of the Relationship
by Ministry Support on December 24th, 2025
“Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.” - 1 Peter 4:8 Christmas Eve has a way of slowing life down for a moment. Even if the season has been busy, tonight feels different. Lights glow a little softer. Families gather. Memories surface. In that stillness, something important becomes clearer than usual. Relationships matter. God places people in our lives f...  Read More

Emotional Self Awareness
by Ministry Support on December 23rd, 2025
“Teach me your way, Lord, that I may rely on your faithfulness.” - Psalm 86:11 Spiritual growth is often described in terms of prayer, Scripture, and obedience, but there is another layer that many people overlook. God also calls His children to know what is happening inside their own hearts. Emotional awareness is not a modern idea. It is part of maturity. You cannot surrender to God what you ref...  Read More

The Biases You Bring into Every Relationship
by Ministry Support on December 22nd, 2025
“Be completely humble and gentle. Be patient, bearing with one another in love.” - Ephesians 4:2 People often assume they see situations clearly, but every person views life through a lens shaped long before the moment arrives. Childhood patterns, family dynamics, cultural messages, and past experiences all play a part in how you interpret someone’s tone, choices, or reactions. Most of the time, y...  Read More

When Trauma Follows You into New Seasons
by Ministry Support on December 21st, 2025
“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” - Psalm 147:3 New seasons feel exciting on the surface. You step into a fresh opportunity, a new relationship, a different environment, or a clearer direction. Everything around you says this should be a new beginning. Yet something from your past keeps showing up in the present. Old emotions creep into new conversations. Familiar fears rise ...  Read More

The Hidden Bruises Shaping Your Reactions
by Ministry Support on December 20th, 2025
“Search me, God, and know my heart. Test me and know my anxious thoughts.” - Psalm 139:23 Some conflicts seem bigger than the moment that triggered them. A small comment turns into a sharp response. A simple misunderstanding becomes a heavy argument. Initially, it feels like the issue is right in front of you, but something deeper may be stirring beneath the surface. Old pain has a way of showing ...  Read More

Stop Building Fences Around Your Heart
by Ministry Support on December 19th, 2025
“Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.” - Proverbs 4:23 People build emotional fences for all kinds of reasons. Something hurt them. Someone disappointed them. A moment caught them off guard, and the safest response seemed to be closing the gate and keeping everyone at a distance. At first, the fence feels like protection. It gives you a sense of control. It helps ...  Read More

Your Destiny Is Bigger Than Your Difficulty
by Ministry Support on December 18th, 2025
“Forget the former things. Do not dwell on the past.” - Isaiah 43:18 Some seasons leave you staring at what happened instead of where you are going. A memory lingers. A disappointment hangs around longer than you expected. A setback keeps replaying in your mind. When that becomes your focus, the future starts to feel smaller than it really is. God speaks into moments like that and reminds you that...  Read More

Seeing God’s Hand in What Tried to Break You
by Ministry Support on December 17th, 2025
“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him.” - Romans 8:28 Some chapters of life leave a mark so deep that you wonder if anything good could ever come out of them. Pain changes your breathing. Disappointment alters your confidence. Wounds shape the way you see the world. It is natural to look back and only remember what hurt. Yet Scripture invites you to take anot...  Read More

The Freedom That Comes with Forgiveness
by Ministry Support on December 16th, 2025
“Bear with one another and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone.” - Colossians 3:13 Forgiveness is one of the hardest choices you will ever make. Not because the command is unclear, but because the pain is real. When someone hurts you, it feels natural to hold on to the memory, the frustration, or the disappointment. You may think that holding on protects you or keeps ...  Read More

Release Through Honest Communication
by Ministry Support on December 15th, 2025
“Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt.” - Colossians 4:6 Most of us were never taught how to communicate what we feel in a healthy way. We either speak too quickly, or we stay silent for too long. We hold back words that need to be spoken because we are afraid of conflict or afraid of being misunderstood. Over time, unspoken emotions begin to weigh the heart down. Silence may see...  Read More

How to Stop Resentment from Taking Up Residence in Your Heart
by Ministry Support on December 14th, 2025
“Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you.” - Ephesians 4:31Resentment does not arrive all at once. It drifts in slowly, almost like a cloud that begins as a thin layer in the distance. Initially, it seems harmless. A moment hurt you. A comment stung. An expectation was not met. You brushed it off and kept moving. But over time, that small cloud begins to ...  Read More

Remembering What God Already Brought You Through
by Ministry Support on December 13th, 2025
“Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits.” - Psalm 103:2 Life moves fast, and when pressures rise, it is easy to focus only on what is hard right now. You see the problem in front of you. You feel the weight of the moment. You wonder how things will work out. But Scripture invites you to pause and look back. Not to relive old pain, but to remember the faithfulness of God in your...  Read More

When the Hurt You Buried Starts Running Your Life
by Ministry Support on December 12th, 2025
“Search me, O God, and know my heart.” - Psalm 139:23 There are moments in life that wound us deeply, and instead of dealing with the pain, we bury it. We push it down, hoping it will fade. We distract ourselves. We stay busy. We convince ourselves that ignoring it is the same as healing it. But buried hurt does not stay buried. It eventually finds a way to lead your decisions, shape your reaction...  Read More

The Cost of Harboring Feelings
by Ministry Support on December 11th, 2025
“Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.” - 1 Peter 5:7 Every person carries feelings that are hard to talk about. Hurt that lingers. Disappointment that hangs in the background. Frustration that you try to ignore. At first, it feels easier to hold those emotions inside. You tell yourself that staying quiet keeps the peace. You tell yourself that time will take care of it. You tell ...  Read More

Detecting the Quiet Growth of Resentment
by Ministry Support on December 10th, 2025
“Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life.” - Proverbs 4:23 Resentment never arrives loudly. It grows quietly. It begins as something small. A comment that stings. A moment that feels unfair. A need that goes unnoticed. At first, you shrug it off. You tell yourself it is not a big deal. You move on with your day. But deep inside, something starts to settle. Somethin...  Read More

Stop Burying What Is Still Alive
by Ministry Support on December 9th, 2025
“Behold, you desire truth in the inward being.” - Psalm 51:6 There are certain feelings we try to bury because we do not want to deal with them. Hurt from something someone said. Fear from a moment that shook us. Regret from a choice we wish we could take back. Shame from something we never talk about. We tell ourselves that if we push those emotions deep enough, they will disappear. The truth is,...  Read More

The Benefits Hidden in the Battle
by Ministry Support on December 8th, 2025
“We know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him.” - Romans 8:28 Every battle feels heavier while you are standing in the middle of it. The pressure rises. The uncertainty grows. The emotions get loud. In those moments, it is hard to see anything that looks good or useful. You are not expected to thank God for the hardship itself, but Scripture teaches that God can use what...  Read More

Seeing From God’s View Instead of the World’s View
by Ministry Support on December 7th, 2025
“Those who look to him are radiant. Their faces shall never be ashamed.” - Psalm 34:5 There are times in life when all you can see is what is right in front of you. You see the problem. You see the pressure. You see the part of the story that hurts. When that happens, it is easy to draw conclusions based on what your eyes can measure. But God never intended for you to live only by what you see. He...  Read More

When What You Are Going Through Does Not Have to Go Through You
by Ministry Support on December 6th, 2025
“I will bless the Lord at all times. His praise shall continually be in my mouth.” - Psalm 34:1 Life has a way of sending storms that feel personal. Some seasons hit with such force that you start believing the struggle is part of who you are. The disappointment settles in. The fear grows louder. The pressure becomes familiar. Without realizing it, what you are going through starts leaking into ho...  Read More

Gratitude That Rewires Your Perspective
by Ministry Support on December 5th, 2025
“Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.” - Colossians 3:2 There is a quiet power in gratitude that many people overlook. Most of us think of thankfulness as something we feel only when life is going well. But gratitude is more than an emotion. It is a discipline that shapes the way your mind works. When you practice it consistently, it begins to change what you notice, how you inte...  Read More

The Power of Saying Your Grace
by Ministry Support on December 4th, 2025
“Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good. His love endures forever.” - Psalm 136:1 Most of us learned early in life that you do not eat until you say your grace. It was simple, but it carried weight. Before the first bite, before the taste of anything touched your mouth, you paused. You bowed your head. You thanked God. At the time, it felt like a ritual, something you were taught to do. As you gr...  Read More

Choosing Joy When You Do Not Feel Joy
by Ministry Support on December 3rd, 2025
“Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice.” - Philippians 4:4 There are seasons when joy feels natural. Life settles into place, prayers get answered, and your heart lifts without much effort. But there are also seasons when joy feels completely out of reach. You wake up tired, you carry more weight than you want to admit, and nothing in your situation feels joyful at all. It is in th...  Read More

Getting Your “But” Out of the Way
by Ministry Support on December 2nd, 2025
“For nothing will be impossible with God.” - Luke 1:37 When you look through Scripture, you find a pattern that shows up in almost every story. God speaks, invites, and calls. And people respond with faith that sounds confident at first, but then comes the word that stops everything. The word but. It is one small word that has kept many people from seeing what God was trying to show them. It is of...  Read More

Gratitude That Is Not Circumstantial
by Ministry Support on December 1st, 2025
“Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” - 1 Thessalonians 5:18 There are moments in life when gratitude feels natural. Good news comes in, prayers get answered, a door opens, and it is easy to look toward heaven and say thank you. But for many people, the struggle begins when life does not go the way they hoped. It is confusing to hear a verse like ...  Read More

In Spite of Praise
by Ministry Support on November 30th, 2025
"I will bless the Lord at all times, his praise shall continually be in my mouth" - Psalm 34:1 Not everything has to be perfect for praise to be real. In fact, some of the most powerful praise you will ever give happens in the middle of the mess. When your questions are louder than your answers. When the breakthrough has not come yet. When your heart is still aching and the road ahead is still unc...  Read More

God Did This
by Ministry Support on November 29th, 2025
"Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights" - James 1:17 There is a quiet danger in success. When the doors open, the diagnosis clears, the job comes through, or the relationship gets restored, it becomes easy to trace the blessing back to something other than God. You start crediting the right connection, the doctor’s skill, your persistence, or e...  Read More

Don’t Miss Thanksgiving
by Ministry Support on November 28th, 2025
"Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God with a loud voice" - Luke 17:15 In Luke 17, ten lepers cried out to Jesus for mercy, and all ten received it. But only one turned around. Only one returned with gratitude in his heart. The others got their healing and kept walking. They received the miracle but missed the moment. On a day like today, when so much focus go...  Read More

Grace Is Still the Invitation
by Ministry Support on November 27th, 2025
"For from his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace." - John 1:16 There are moments in life when the distance feels too wide. Maybe it has been weeks, months, or even years since you’ve truly felt close to God. Whether it was failure, shame, apathy, or just a slow drift, something happened. And now you wonder if the door is still open. Let me tell you, it is. Grace is still the invitatio...  Read More

Healing Happens in His Hands
by Ministry Support on November 26th, 2025
"He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." - Psalm 147:3 When life feels shattered, the natural instinct is to run. Run from the pain, run from the past, run from the things you can’t fix. But the truth is that healing is not found in your escape route. It’s found in the hands of the One who knows how to restore what has been broken. You might be tempted to numb the pain, distract you...  Read More

Stop Running from the Potter
by Ministry Support on November 25th, 2025
"He who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ." - Philippians 1:6 There is something in us that resists being reshaped. We say we want to be healed, transformed, and made new, but when the process starts to press on old wounds or confront our pride, we back away. The very hands that want to shape us feel uncomfortable, so we run. But if healing is what you...  Read More

You’re Not Broken Beyond Repair
by Ministry Support on November 24th, 2025
"He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." - Psalm 147:3 Some days, you look around at your life and wonder if any of it can be put back together. The damage feels deep. Maybe it’s because of something someone did to you. Maybe it’s because of a choice you made. But either way, the pieces are scattered, and the weight of it all whispers one message: it’s too far gone. But that voice i...  Read More

The Season of Alignment
by Ministry Support on November 23rd, 2025
"Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you" - Jeremiah 1:5 Some seasons in life feel more like unraveling than growth. Things fall apart. What once felt clear suddenly feels confusing. You may even wonder if God is punishing you or if you've missed your opportunity. But what if the disruption isn’t a sign that you’re off track, but that God is pulling y...  Read More

Clarity Is Your Green Light
by Ministry Support on November 22nd, 2025
"If the Lord delights in us, he will bring us into this land and give it to us" – Numbers 14:8 Chaos doesn’t mean confusion. Just because everything around you feels uncertain does not mean you don’t know what to do. There are moments when God makes something so clear to your heart that you don’t need to pray about it anymore. You don’t need to wait for more confirmation. You don’t need to check h...  Read More

Faith That Fights Back
by Ministry Support on November 21st, 2025
"For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith." – 1 John 5:4 When spiritual warfare hits your life, faith is not just a comfort. It is a weapon. It is how you plant your feet and refuse to be moved. It is how you punch back when the enemy tries to take what belongs to you. Too often, we reduce faith to something soft, like...  Read More

Pray Like You’re in a Battle
by Ministry Support on November 20th, 2025
"Pray without ceasing." – 1 Thessalonians 5:17 When you are in a spiritual battle, prayer cannot be a side note. It is not a nice option or a religious habit you squeeze into your morning. It is your lifeline. Your weapon. Your strategy. The battle you are facing is not just physical, emotional, or mental. It is spiritual. And if you are going to win a spiritual war, you have to fight with spiritu...  Read More

Spiritual Boldness in the Battle
by Ministry Support on November 19th, 2025
"Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go." – Joshua 1:9 When the enemy attacks, he doesn’t play fair. He strikes in your moments of weakness. He throws lies when you’re already low. He uses fear to make you freeze. And if you’re not careful, you’ll spend your days on the defensive, just trying to survive. But God did not call you to...  Read More

God Will Back You Up
by Ministry Support on November 18th, 2025
"If God is for us, who can be against us?" – Romans 8:31 There’s a kind of courage that only shows up when you take the first step. Not the kind of courage that feels invincible, but the kind that moves forward even while you're shaking. Maybe you’re standing in front of something that feels too big for you. You know it needs to be done. You know God is nudging you to move. But fear keeps whisperi...  Read More

You’ve Lost a Lot...Now Fight
by Ministry Support on November 17th, 2025
"The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit" – Psalm 34:18 There is a certain kind of silence that settles in after loss. Maybe you know it. It is the quiet after the storm, when everything around you feels thinner, heavier, and harder to carry. The truth is, life hits. You lose relationships. You lose momentum. You lose parts of yourself that felt unshakeable.  And it i...  Read More

Don’t Come Back Without It
by Ministry Support on November 16th, 2025
"For the Lord your God is he who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies, to give you the victory" – Deuteronomy 20:4 You know that feeling when something important to you gets taken away. Maybe it was your peace, your purpose, your passion, or your joy. Maybe it happened slowly, or maybe it hit all at once. But whatever it was, it mattered. And deep down, you know you were never meant...  Read More
