  • the question of justice

    Every day we are forced to ask the question, ‘is there any justice in this world,’ and as humans, we tend to think there isn’t any. We question whether God really sees what is going on, and how can He let His people suffer. We believe that we would do a better job at meting…

  • The temple

    This morning’s devotions took me to Exodus 25-28. The detailed building of the tabernacle takes up many chapters, and no small bit is ignored. All the way from the outside to the inner courts has instructions from God. He knows what He wants constructed, and the Israelites will have the presence of God living with…

  • the Music within us…

    This last week I was watching The Jesus Music, a documentary chronicling the rise of Christian music. It traces its inception from the 1970s hippie movements, through the glory days of rock and roll in the 1980s, to this day. Famous faces, names and songs brought back memories, invoking nostalgia from my youth into my…

  • Is Our Faith Without Foundation?

    This last weekend was Easter weekend, and endless social media posts wished “Happy Easter”, “He is Risen”, etc. I also posted the same “He is Risen” and was left thinking about it all. What does that actually mean to me personally? I’m not going to go into a salvation message, but I’m going to start…

  • Hope in the Chaos

    Wow, it’s been a few years since I sat down to blog. So much has happened, yet what’s real is still real. I’ll start with a short update of what’s being going on. In the spring of 2019 I graduated from Lakehead University in Thunder Bay with an HBA in Political Science and Women’s Studies.…

  • Roots and Wings

    These last few weeks have been a bit stressful, but it’s normal stress, the kind that comes with the end of a school term. It’s even a good kind of stress because you get tested in so many ways. How do we measure up? Are we students that procrastinate? Cheat? Blame? Compare? Do we know…

  • Faith in Love….

    Is faith just something that a christian has? Is faith something we all struggle with a little? Or is it just the “ignorant masses” that need faith as a crutch? I have just started my second year of university. It’s a fascinating place to be, and there is so much to learn. Our world is…

  • This is not a test!

    These last few weeks have been topsy-turvy. The highs and lows of life as a woman, mother, student, daughter, and Jesus follower. How does one really deal with the emotionality of it all? Sometimes it is just by listening to Skillet at top volume (and dancing), and other days it is gritting my teeth and…

  • Blessed are the Self-righteous?

    No, this isn’t from the same passage where Jesus talks about the poor in spirit etc, but this is what many believe in our churches. I don’t think this attitude is just in churches, but many of us who grew up in a church have felt the sting of it, and even indulged in it…
