Doubting Tara…I Mean Thomas

My Everyday Hope

‘Then Gideon said to God, “Do not let Your anger burn against me that I may speak once more; please let me make a test once more with the fleece, let it now be dry only on the fleece, and let there be dew on all the ground.” God did so that night; for it was dry only on the fleece, and dew was on all the ground.’ Judges 6:39-40

I hope I’m not the only one here but my faith can be like a yo-yo. One day it’s strong and I feel like I can take on the world and the next I can feel like the slightest breath of wind would knock me over. That is one reason I like the story of Gideon so much.

I was seeking God this morning. I was seeking Him to, not just guide my ways, but to give me comfort that He is in the midst of the things that are laying heavy on my heart.

Why is it easier said than done? We pray that God will handle our situation for us, yet we continue to do what we think is the right thing to do… Continue reading “It’s Not Hide and Seek” →

Getting Through Pain

My Everyday Hope

‘The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him. For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.’ Romans 8: 16-18

My honey and I met at a 300 club dinner almost 13 years ago. A blind set up by his niece/nephew and my niece. I was hooked right away, although he probably couldn’t tell because I barely spoke a word! Continue reading “Getting Through Pain” →
