When We Face Something Scary, Let's Be Brave Together

Are we still on for tomorrow?

Yep.

You sure you want to do this?

Yep.

It’s kinda scary.

I know.

We’ll be brave together.

These messages ping ponged between my sister and me late one evening. We were overdue for a sister date, and she had a gift card to a new restaurant. A Thai restaurant.

It’s important to know that we come from a long line of Italians who think pasta is a food group and adventurous means choosing the Spicy Chicken sandwich instead of the Original at Chick-fil-A.

But we’re both in our 50’s and in some ways, we’re busting out. Shaking things up. Living dangerously. Hence the pinkie promise to help each other be brave and try something new.

So off we went, brave together.

I often need a sister’s help to face something new and scary.

I’m sharing “Brave Together” on the God Hears Her site today. To read the rest of Brave Together, please click HERE

Does Your Prayer Life Need Refreshing?

We know Bible reading and prayer are vital parts of our faith, but what happens when our prayer lives become stagnant and our quiet times grow stale? We need something more than just familiar verses and the command to pray. In Refresh Your Prayers, Uncommon Devotions to Unlock Power and Praise, Lori Hatcher shares relevant, five-minute devotions that spotlight unusual prayer verses in the Bible.

Each devotion ends with a Power Point (a spiritual truth to empower your faith) and a Praise Prompt (a short prayer designed to magnify God and make your faith soar). The Live It Out section challenges you to apply what you’ve learned right now for immediate change.

If you’re tired of your all-too-quiet quiet time, Refresh Your Prayers is the answer.
