I’m glad in God, far happier than you would ever guess—happy that you’re again showing such strong concern for me. Not that you ever quit praying and thinking about me. You just had no chance to show it. Actually, I don’t have a sense of needing anything personally. I’ve learned by now to be quite content whatever my circumstances. I’m just as happy with little as with much, with much as with little. I’ve found the recipe for being happy whether full or hungry, hands full or hands empty. Whatever I have, wherever I am, I can make it through anything in the One who makes me who I am. I don’t mean that your help didn’t mean a lot to me—it did. It was a beautiful thing that you came alongside me in my troubles. ❤ Philippians 4:10-14 (MSG) God is all you need! Putting that into practice is harder than you think especially in this day and age. Society and culture tell us one thing while the Bible tells us another.

God Called You to Be YOU!
Wow, I can't believe summer is over! Where has the time gone? This summer has been insane and without going into too much detail I will say that I spent a lot of time in prayer and reading the Bible. Even though I have only blogged a few times this summer it's not because I didn't want to or that I forgot about you. In fact, it was quite the opposite. You see I have openly admitted to how I struggle with comparison. Every day it is so easy to look at other bloggers and writers sites and feeds wishing you could do the same thing. I always have been worried about making this blog "picture perfect" that I started stressing out over my posts. The passion was there but the energy and will to post became almost non-existent. I started worrying more about how it looked than the actual content itself.
The Battle is Not Yours but GOD’S!
The battle is not yours but God!!!! The enemy will try to sneak up on the blind side. Spiritual warfare is real my friends! I’m living in the middle of it right now. You see when you are trying to do GOD’S work you are inevitably going to be attacked by the enemy. When I chose to live my life for Jesus and be in ministry I knew all the risks I would face. I knew that the enemy would be after me. ⠀ I knew people would hate me.⠀ I knew this life would be hard.⠀ I knew I needed to be on guard. You see following Jesus is hard but totally worth it. You just need to press into Him and stay grounded in the WORD so that you are ready to stand up to this battle.
Happy Memorial Day
As we celebrate Memorial Day I wanted to take some time to reflect. ⠀ ⠀ It’s an emotional day as we remember all those who serve or have served in the military. We remember the brave men and women who gave their lives so we can be free. ⠀ ⠀ I just want to thank everyone that serves and fights for my freedom. To them and their families, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your service. ⠀ ⠀ Just like we thank our armed forces we also need to thank Jesus as well. He was willing to die for us. Without His sacrifice, we’d all be lost. Jesus made the ultimate sacrifice and for that, I am so thankful. Blessings, Grace Mae ❤
Review: CSB Women’s Study Bible
Today I have the honor of reviewing the CSB Women's Study Bible on the blog. Can I just get real with you? I'm just over the moon on cloud nine to be able to bring you this review. Bibles have to be one of my favorite things. I don't like to admit it but I'm pretty addicted to new Bibles. I always love stalking the Bible section at Lifeway everytime I go in so when I was given this opportunity I jumped at the chance. Please note that this is not sponsored in any way. This review is my honest opinion. I would never recommend or review anything that I didn't personally read or try out. I received this Bible free from the publisher in exchange for my honest review of it.
