Irritated, Irrational & Frustrated: Not the Mom I Want to Be – How Do I Break Free?
He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls. Proverbs 25:28 I’m not a perfect mom. Sometimes I’m not even a nice mom. There are days that I wake up in a rotten mood. I feel tired and the littlest thing irritates me, driving me into an irrational craze. I don’t want to feel this way, but it happens. Maybe you’ve had a day or two in this irrational land of irritability. It’s possible that you’ve had weeks or even months of complete frustration. You read parenting books, blogs,

God-Centered Prayer: Week 4 – God’s Purpose
“Thy will be done.” This is much easier to say, than actually apply. I desperately want to please God. I want to know Him and to hear Him speak. I want to walk with Him and enjoy the blessings of drawing near to His heart. Throughout my life I have often thought it would take a lot of work, big changes and miraculous blessings to experience God’s will for my life. Sometimes it seemed like distant goal, a long shot, nearly impossible or completely unattainable. I am learning God’s will is a lot like His mercy. It’s new every day.
God-Centered Prayer: Week 2 – God’s Power
We often struggle beneath the weight of our burdens because we cannot see beyond our current reality. The pain is too deep, the heartache is too terrible and we cannot reason away the “whys” of our worst nightmares. If we change our thinking to focus on God’s power rather than on our problems, we will take the first step toward living in the presence of God’s power. This week I heard of divorce, cancer, suicide, sexual abuse, hurt feelings, pornography, and deep struggles. People are walking all around us carrying great big, unbearable burdens. The burdens are powerful. They break
Radio Interview with Missions Radio
I had the opportunity to share my heart on Missionsradio.org. I am not a radio girl, but I believe it was an opportunity to spread Jesus name farther than my hands can reach. God has been so faithful and I want to give Him all the praise. I hope you will be encouraged and blessed as you listen to a little piece of my heart. Interview with Missions Radio Love & Blessings, Micah
God-Centered Prayer: Week 1- God’s Presence
“The presence of God is hard to define, but His absence is easy to detect.” –Michael Catt Do you ever feel like God is far away? Prayer is often a list of requests, a plea for help and a desire to get an answer. Over the next five weeks, we will we take a journey toward “God-Centered Prayer.” The purpose of this series is to pray to God acknowledging who He is and what He has done in our lives. Prayer is so much more than self-centered requests. Let’s shift our focus from what we need from God and give
