A Monthly Devotional, by Michaela Popielski Hey guys. So for this devotional I think I will talk a bit on creation. Creation is probably one of the first things we learn in Sunday school along with Jesus is good as well as the son of God. But creation I think has a bit more to it than that. Yes God made it and it’s good, but I was walking around my family’s property and thought about … Read entire article »

A Monthly Devotional, by Michaela Popielski. So, for this month’s devotion, I didn’t quite know what to write about so I thought I’ll go free hand with this one so to speak. One thing that I’ve been thinking about is music and how it affects our lives, moods and over all view of life. This may sound similar to my sister’s blog but I’ve been chewing on this for a while. I can’t remember if I’ve … Read entire article »

A Monthly Devotional, by Michaela Popielski. Hi! Well, this month I had a ton of trouble trying to find a topic and I realized one right before I started typing this. Rituals. Almost everywhere, everyone and everything has some kind of ritual. Even if they don’t realize it. Get up, brush teeth, breakfast, chores, school. I’m not against rituals but it got me thinking, how often do we treat Christianity as a ritual? Go to church, … Read entire article »

Guess What, You Were Adopted!
Yes, you read right. If you have accepted Christ into you heart, you have been adopted by the King of Heaven. As God’s sons and daughters you now posses the keys to an entire kingdom. Just consider the fact that anything you want you can have, states John 15:7: “But if you remain in me and my words remain in you, you may ask for anything you want, and it will be granted!” John 14:13: … Read entire article »

A Monthly Devotional, by Michaela Popielski. Hi everyone. I hope you guys had an awesome holiday season. Over the holidays I went with my youth group to IHOP in Kansas City Missouri and it was amazing. The topic was ‘Jesus our magnificent obsession’. I was mulling over some ideas for a topic for the devotion this month and one thing that stood out was when a speaker at IHOP was telling about how she was told … Read entire article »

A CHRIST Led Life
What is living your life for Christ really about? This is a question that frequently comes to mind for me. An inquiry that I know most likely have more than one answer. But after asking for counsel from God and a few of my spiritual leaders I found out that living a Christ led life is ALL about the Heart. The Bible says in Proverbs 4:23 “Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course … Read entire article »

For Such a Time as This
Yesterday I pondered on this sentence (the title of this column) as I prayed for the salvation of three of my supermarket colleagues. What if God sent me to this job just so three of my fellow co-workers could get saved? I am not saying that I am here only for that purpose, but asking rather. This question was inquired in the Bible by Mordecai to Esther in Esther 4:14 (where he retorted back to her after she explained to him her fate if … Read entire article »

A Monthly Devotional, by Michaela Popielski. Hey everyone. I hope you enjoyed the November devotional. If any of it seemed too long I’m sorry. Also I saw some mistakes in the last devotional. I must have skipped some keys. On a better note though, it’s almost time for Christmas! Cookies, family, gifts, traveling, giving, receiving, Christmas movies, candy, Kieflies and (for me at least), convincing my family I am Polish even though I don’t like Kieflies. … Read entire article »

True Love
The Bible describes the true meaning of love in the thirteenth chapter of 1st Corinthians. The Bible was clear in the verse 1 John 8:4 NIV that ”…God is love” and we can use Jesus as our perfect example of how we should be here on earth. Verses 4-7 of the Love chapter states, “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5: It is not rude, it is … Read entire article »

A Monthly Devotional, by Michaela Popielski. Hey everyone. Well, its that time of year again. At least by the time you read this it will be. Right now its the middle of October. But anyway, once again its time for the usual practice of planning Thanksgiving meals, what you want to give/get for Christmas and above all good old fashioned family time. Sometimes its hard to feel thankful for what we have. Like maybe we have … Read entire article »

Living a Pure Life Before God and Man
Millie’s Column. For this column, I wanted to write about living a pure life before God and man. David was an honorable and holy man that loved God. In fact, in Psalms 17:8 David asks God to keep him as the apple of HIS eye. So in deciding, I thought who better to teach about living a pure life than David. Here are some verses from Psalm 119: 9: How can a young … Read entire article »

A Monthly Devotional, by Michaela Popielski. Hi guys. So I’ve been thinking of something to use as a theme for this month’s devotional and I had some ideas but I think this time instead of a “theme” I’m going to use verses that I feel are important to our everyday lives. So chances are you will find a verse or chapter that relates to your specific problem if you are dealing … Read entire article »

A Look at the Life of David
Millie’s Column I wanted us for this column to take a deeper look at Psalm chapter 1. David states in verse 1: “Oh, the joys of those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers.” Wow! It is a joy not to follow the advice of the wicked. Why? Well maybe because they’re Fools. Yes the Bible says a fool says in their heart there is no God. … Read entire article »

A Monthly Devotional, by Michaela Popielski. Hi guys! I hope you liked my first devotional. If it seemed not so put together I’m sorry. It was my first and I’m getting better at planning. On a different note, this month’s devotion will be on condemnation. Condemnation means: Reject, accuse, blame, smear, object. We’ve all felt this way at one point or another. An example of this would be probably like this: your younger sister/brother is … Read entire article »

A Monthly Devotional, by Michaela Popielski. Hi everyone. My name is Michaela, I’m 17 and I had this idea to start a monthly devotional because reading The Bible is so important to our spiritual lives such as fruit, veggies and meat are needed for our physical bodies. Well I’ve been wanting to start this devotional for a while and I think its time I started. I’ve decided to call it ‘Stepping Stones’ since God wants us … Read entire article »
