He Who Strengthens Me

I’ve written about this verse before (see All Things ), but I think it is a topic which is so important that it should be shared again. A friend reminded me of the verse this week, and I’ve been musing on it a lot.

New Beginnings

It is the beginning of a new school year. New experiences, new plans, and new goals to try to achieve. Most times whilst preparing for the latest, futuristic, contemporary thing, we can often lose focus of God. Sometimes we think that when we have everything figured out then we will ask God “to do His… Continue reading New Beginnings

Confidence

Confidence. What is confidence? According to Cambridge Dictionary, confidence is, "The quality of being certain of your abilities or of having trust in people, plans, or the future." That whole sentence is saying that confidence is basically trusting in someone or something. Why I'm talking about this is because girls around my age question themselves… Continue reading Confidence

Sands of Time

I stood ankle-deep in water by the shore. In the background, a boisterous group of children were swimming in the lagoon; happy.   I strolled along the shore underneath the overcast sky, each step I took was greeted by a rushing wave hasting to clear my tracks. I looked around, other than the rubbish scattered… Continue reading Sands of Time

Future

I don't know about you, but recently I have been thinking about my future a LOT. And I'm only 11! That's the thing that scares me most. The future is so uncertain, you never know what is going to happen in the next month, five days, even in the next hour. And we are a… Continue reading Future

Taking a piece of humble pie

If you are a middle child, like me, you would understand the things you would have to go through. Being bossed around by your older sibling, and being annoyed by your younger sibling. When you think about what they have done in the past, you may be thinking, "Well, I am better than them! I… Continue reading Taking a piece of humble pie

Gladness!!

There will always be a bright side - even if the only one you can see at the time is that, as you believe in Christ's sacrifice, your soul will live on for entirety in perfect bliss. Actually, now that I think about it, perfect eternal life isn’t an 'only' thing. It's a complete blessing… Continue reading Gladness!!

The True Foundation

One dictionary defines a foundation as: ' A basis or underlying principle.' As humans, our foundation is whatever we base our lives on. As Christians, our foundation should be the truth of the gospel. If we try to support our lives on something (or even someone) other than Jesus, it won't make much of a… Continue reading The True Foundation

Trust In Christ Alone

This verse is one of the verses I have learnt in the past and strangely am remembering it now. The verse is talking about trust. Now, trust isn't all falling into someone's arms backwards. Trust is putting faith in Jesus to help you in your struggles, no matter what. Sometimes, I can just wander off… Continue reading Trust In Christ Alone

Comfort in His Greatness

I love the way this verse shows God's greatness. Because who, other than God could measure the sea in his palm? Who, other than God, could compare outer space and with the width of his hand? I don't know of anyone apart from the Lord who could! I find huge security knowing that my Heavenly… Continue reading Comfort in His Greatness
