Merry Christmas!

December 25, 2024December 23, 2024

Merry Christmas! The day that we celebrate all year, really, is finally here on the calendar. But may we never lose sight the fact that HE is the only way to salvation. No worldly thing that captures our attention or hearts, will ever satisfy. May the truth of THIS Truth, reign and reflect in our hearts the other 364 days of the year.

What a humbling gift that God would choose us. That we have no reason to ever be troubled because for it is certain – in Him we have life (John 10:10). May we celebrate that life today and always!

Merry Christmas from the Sterks!

A Day in the Life of…

The other night, I had an idea to do a few fall crafts with Mazy in the morning. I pinned the ideas on Pinterest and made sure I had the right items to make them. I couldn’t wait to show her when she woke up, what I had come up with. There was this beautiful…

It’s Not About What You Haven’t Done

Start the list: You haven’t finished the laundry. You haven’t made that new recipe. You haven’t organized your kids’ papers. You haven’t made a “good” supper in weeks. You haven’t exercised in who knows how long. You haven’t done this. And you haven’t done that. I am sure you can fill in the blanks. Think…
