Inspiration for Your Week #9
Happy Monday, everyone! Lately, I’ve been learning a bit about an unusual topic–climbing Mount Everest. My mom just finished reading aloud a true story about a man who descended Mt. Everest snow-blind, and we watched several documentaries that helped to give an idea of the challenges that climbers face. Two things stood out at me after hearing each story–first, the solid conviction that I will never climb Mt. Everest! 😊 Second–the need to endure. Those athletes had to endure bitter cold, hunger, painful muscles, low oxygen, exhaustion, and separation from their families. I can’t even imagine living through a blizzard with sub-zero temperatures and 80-m.p.h. winds on the side of…

Inspiration for Your Week #8
Good morning, friends! I’m excited because this week my correspondence Bible classes start. I so enjoyed learning more from God’s word last semester, and I’m happy to be taking the classes full-time this spring. In preparation for one of the classes, I was reading 2 Corinthians 1 and I found a sweet reminder from the Lord that He is completely trustworthy. For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, even by me and Silvanus and Timotheus, was not yea and nay, but in him was yea. For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of…

Inspiration for Your Week #7
Hello friends! I hope you are all doing well and enjoying your January! Mine has been pretty low-key so far, which is fine with me. Teaching piano lessons, violin, and just the day-to-day activities that go on. After a crazy December, it’s been nice to have a slower pace this month. Today’s quote is on a verse that we are all probably familiar with, and a verse that we may even tend to view as cliche. But the truth it contains is so precious. What is the difficulty, the trial, the frustration in your life that you didn’t want and can’t understand? Trust that your loving Father will work it…

Inspiration for Your Week #6
Good morning friends, and happy Monday! 😊 I think it’s safe to say that we all want to be successful in our lives. I wonder, though, how we define success? God’s definitions can be so different from ours. While we might naturally consider success to be a comfortable home, a good job, and a wonderful family, it is quite possible to have none of those things and still be successful in God’s eyes. True success will last for eternity! When I read this quote, I thought about missionaries who have labored for years and have only a very small result to show for it. Although the world and even some…

Inspiration for Your Week #3
Hello, my friends! The past week was super busy, but also wonderful! The mall singing and concert went really well. It was so thrilling to get to sing about the birth and coming reign of our Savior in a public place. This week has a slightly slower pace, and of course, we are looking forward to Christmas! This morning when I opened my Bible, I read Deuteronomy 32:4, “He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.” Isn’t it wonderful that the work of our God is perfect? From creation to the finished work…
