I was talking to a friend recently and something was shared that truly stayed with me. It was said that a podcast host had mentioned that as he grows in his faith, he prays he would “disappear” more and more; so that when God looks at him, and when other people look at him, they don’t really see him… they see Jesus.  There was something deeply moving about the humility in that prayer. Not a desire to be unnoticed or insignificant, but a sincere longing for Christ to be so evi

Before there were roses, handwritten cards, or candlelit dinners, there was a love that chose us first. Valentine’s Day is filled with flowers, chocolates, and carefully chosen words that promise forever. It’s a day that celebrates love in its sweetest, most visible forms. But today, I want to center our hearts on a love even deeper, a love that didn’t come wrapped in ribbon, but wrapped in sacrifice. “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever

Faith is not something to be concealed; it’s meant to radiate outward. Loving like Jesus isn’t about having the perfect words or always knowing what to say. Often, it’s about how we show up in the world, how we treat others, how we respond when things get difficult, how we love when it would be easier to turn away. That’s where the light comes from. Being a light doesn’t mean being flawless. It means being willing: willing to love, willing to forgive, willing to choose grace

I often come across the phrase “ to be loved is to be known ,” and it has been sitting with me for a while. I have seen it shared in different contexts about relationships, intimacy, and human connection, but no matter where my thoughts begin, they always seem to find their way back to our Creator. Because every truth about love, at its core, originates with Him. There is a longing in all of us to be known, to be seen beyond the surface and beyond what we present to the worl

“Aren’t we all just walking each other home?” I recently read this quote, and I’ve been thinking about it for a while. When we look deeper into it, the understanding is that we aren’t doing life alone. It isn’t a solo trip. None of us has it fully figured out. We are all moving through confusion, joy, loss, and growth at the same time, and what we really do for each other is offer companionship along the way. But as believers, there’s an even deeper truth beneath this: we are

“God is good.” I say that phrase often. I hear it often. And most of the time, it’s said with excitement after something works out, after a blessing, after life feels kind and light. But the truth is, saying “God is good”  is easy when life is good. The harder question is: Is God still good when life is not? When your prayers seem unanswered. When healing doesn’t come the way we hoped. When plans fall apart, relationships break, or grief settles in quietly and refuses to leav

As followers of Jesus, our daily choices speak louder than anything we could ever say. What we do in life is a reflection of the Lord. Every moment, whether public or private, becomes an opportunity to either mirror His character or turn hearts away from Him. When we choose kindness and show consideration for others, we reveal the heart of Christ to a world that desperately needs to see His love. Jesus taught us that kindness is not optional. It is the natural outflow of a li

I saw a video the other day that really stuck with me. In the video this message was discussed : “Singleness is lonely when we make it about us. But singleness is sacred when we make it about God.” He went on to talk about Adam in the garden, and how it wasn’t until the Lord took a rib from Adam’s side and made woman that Adam even knew he was alone. He explained that before that moment, Adam was fully devoted to the work that God had given him. He was fixated on serving his

This week, I have been reflecting a lot on John 15:19: “ If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you. ” As a college student, it is easy to be distracted by everything happening around me. There’s always something going on - parties, social events, trends to follow, opinions to agree with, and pressures to “fit in.” And honestly, sometimes it feels

As young adults, I think the idea of finding someone has become one of the biggest concerns on our minds. We’re constantly surrounded by conversations about relationships, timelines, and expectations, and it’s easy to feel pressure to have everything figured out. As I’ve written before, I believe that our ultimate purpose is to know God and walk closely with Him; everything else in life is meant to follow from that. But this past week, as I was reading Genesis 2, I found myse
