As I awaken, I am thankful for the new day and confident in managing the duties I must do today. I efficiently handle my work and home life so that both run smoothly.

I have a feeling of satisfaction, knowing that I can succeed on my own. My self-reliance gives me independence and permits me to live a life corresponding to my principles.

I am making it on my own, so I maintain reasonable expectations of others.

If I need something fixed at my house, I hire a professional rather than burdening my friends. I appreciate that everyone has families and responsibilities. Everyone deserves downtime.

I know that my responsibilities are mine alone. I trust myself to get the job completed effectively because I am confident in my success. I prosper through my hard work and take accountability for my life choices.

Because I am self-reliant and appraise each situation with a strong dose of levelheadedness, I am more contented than ever! It is not easy to disappoint me because I ...

Relationships are one of the most significant aspects of our lives. Whether with family, friends, or a spouse, the quality of our relationships can greatly affect our overall well-being. However, relationships can also be challenging and require intentional maintenance and strengthening. One of the most powerful ways to nurture and strengthen our relationships is prayer—praying for love to fill them.

The Power of Love in Relationships

The Bible speaks extensively about the importance of love in our relationships. In 1 Corinthians 13:13, we read, "And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity." The word "charity" in this verse is love. This passage reminds us that love is the foundation for building strong, lasting relationships.

Love is not merely a feeling or an emotion; it is a commitment to seek the best for others and to be patient, kind, and forgiving. When we pray to seek love in our relationships, we genuinely seek God to saturate ...

Labor Day is a time to celebrate hard work, relax with friends and family, and enjoy the last moments of summer. With cookouts, parties, and travel plans, it is easy to get caught up in the festivities and overlook our health. As Christians, we are called to honor God with our bodies (1 Corinthians 6:19-20, KJV) and maintain balance in all areas of life. While it is important to enjoy the day, it is equally important to care for our physical and spiritual well-being during this time.

Here are a few tips to help you stay healthy during Labor Day festivities:

1. Mindful Eating: Enjoy, but Do Not Overindulge

Labor Day is often associated with barbecues, picnics, and indulgent foods. While it is perfectly fine to enjoy a good meal, it is also important to be mindful of what we consume. Proverbs 25:16 (KJV) reminds us, "Hast thou found honey? eat so much as is sufficient for thee, lest thou be filled therewith, and vomit." Moderation is key.

• Tip: Eat fresh fruits, vegetables, an

Christian Life Coaching is an effective approach to help women achieve their goals, unlock their full potential, and fulfill their divine purpose. By working collaboratively with a professional life coach, clients can identify their talents, passions, and objectives and develop a plan of action to achieve their desired outcomes.

Life coaches provide invaluable assistance to their clients by creating a safe and non-judgmental space for them to explore their thoughts and emotions. By working with a life coach, women can better understand themselves, their values, and their purpose in life.

This process involves identifying their strengths and weaknesses, defining their goals, and developing a plan of action to achieve those goals.

One of the primary benefits of working with a life coach is that they help clients develop the necessary skills and strategies to achieve their pursuits. This includes effective communication, time management, and problem-solving skills. Life co...

With the internet, we live in an amazingly interconnected world. People send messages and get instant connections. Because of this, it might seem like the traditional means of networking have fallen by the wayside. But, nothing is further from the truth.

Social media is a fantastic way for people to exchange ideas and meet new contacts. But, it will never have the same power as face-to-face meetings with people. Communication is at its strongest when two individuals look at each other. Women learn more about others within seconds of in-person contact than they ever could strictly online.

Another point to consider is that people online might not always be who they claim they are. Think about how effortless it is to create an online identity. People can be anyone they want to be online. This means the online connections you make could be fake, which will not help you when asking people to work with, support, or utilize your business.  Networking is about engaging with others.

Time is the great equalizer. You have 24 hours to use each day, no matter who you are. However, these hours are mostly already spoken for - for many women. Between sleep, family duties, work, and - if we are lucky - a little socializing, there is not much time left. Any time we do use, we must use it well.

Simple tips that can help you avoid wasting your time:

1.  Stop Saying Yes If You Want to Say No

Do you ever find that you take on more than you can handle? Try saying no a little more often. While it is essential to be a good friend or a team player, you do not have to take on every task someone asks of you. If you take the time to do someone else's work, you lose that time somewhere else in your life.

2.  Focus on One Major Task Each Day

I am not suggesting that you only do one thing per day, but it can help guide a light goal. Think about one thing or theme to focus on that day. When you are in-between tasks, you will not find yourself wasting time wondering ...

In today’s fast-paced and stressful world, maintaining mental health can be a challenge, but it is crucial for overall well-being. As Christian women, adopting a Truth Mindset allows us to prioritize mental health while relying on God’s Word and truth to guard our minds. The Bible teaches us the importance of being intentional about what we allow to influence our thoughts and attitudes. In this blog, we explore how the Truth Mindset can help protect our mental health, guiding us to a place of peace and emotional strength.

"Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee." — Isaiah 26:3 (KJV)

This powerful scripture reminds us that keeping our minds focused on God and His truth brings perfect peace. When we fix our thoughts on His promises rather than on the stresses or anxieties of life, we allow God to guard our mental well-being.

Zig Ziglar quipped, "People often say that motivation does not last. Well, neither does ba...

If Jesus, His kingdom, and His righteousness are the first priority in your life, all other matters of your life find their places. "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:" Ecclesiastes 3:1. But when you allow Jesus to slip from His throne, every matter in your life fights for pre-eminence. To make it through the struggles in life, we need to find our strength in Jesus.

Making Time for Jesus a Priority

Visa or Mastercard—are you even presented that choice anymore?

Take-out or delivery—that is a familiar phrase, especially during the COVID shutdown.

Hot or iced…coffee, that is.

Women are all faced with numerous choices every single day of our lives. Yet, we make nearly all of them without putting much (if any) thought into what we are doing. It is as if we are on auto-pilot. But why do you make the choices you make?

The solution to that question is simple: We make choices centered on our wants or desires. Now I realize some of you are s...

I know life is hard. I acknowledge that as part of the natural order of things. If I did not have hard times, I could not be grateful for the complete joy of good times.

I am reminded of the famous declaration, "What doesn't kill me makes me stronger!" Even if I feel I cannot bear any more, I persevere. I come out of the situation, seeing that I am stronger than before.

As my body is strengthened through exercise, my character is strengthened through adversities. Challenges apply pressure on me and make me feel like the weight of the world is on my shoulders. But each adversity I overcome makes it less complicated for me to kick off the weight of the next one.

Overcoming adversities brings me the confidence to face new challenges as well. If I did it once, twice, or many times, I know I can do it again!

Because of experience, I also know with certainty that "this, too, shall pass." It gives me the strength to continue no matter what the circumstances.

Life is full of challenges, and relationships are no exception. Whether it is a misunderstanding with a friend, a disagreement in marriage, or tension within a family, struggles and difficulties are inevitable. However, the Bible teaches us that when we operate out of love, we are to work through these challenges in a way that not only strengthens our relationships but also transforms them. Love is the foundation that enables us to navigate life’s storms with grace, patience, and resilience, offering us hope and inspiration in the face of adversity.

Love Bears All Things

One of the most well-known passages about love is 1 Corinthians 13. In verse 7, the Apostle Paul writes that love "beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things." When we operate out of love, we are willing to bear the burdens of relationships. Love gives us the strength to endure hardships, to believe the best in others, and to maintain hope even when circumstances seem bleak.
