    Rest in God’s Love

    ByKatherine Wisniewski February 11, 2026February 11, 2026

    This afternoon, while babysitting my grandson, I took him up to his room for his nap. Usually, he snuggles up against my chest and allows me to sing and rock him to sleep. But today, he reared back his little head, began crying, and flailing his arms. I tried to soothe him, saying, “I know you are tired, little guy. But you will feel happier and more peaceful if you rest.” Don’t worry, we can play again when you wake up.” As I said the words, I heard God’s Spirit whisper, “Sometimes you act just like a toddler fighting rest.” I had to laugh because it was true.

     For Unto Us A Child Is Born

    ByKatherine Wisniewski December 24, 2025December 2, 2025

    Growing up, I was never a fan of classical music. This might be because my stepfather played Handel’s Messiah every Christmas at an ear-splitting level.  To clarify, I didn’t mind the words or message, just the type of singing, and the fact that he blasted it so loud. To this day, I can still hear the words “For unto us a Child is born…Wonderful, Counselor” echoing in my brain at full volume.

    When We Are Lost and Afraid, God Leads Us Home

    ByKatherine Wisniewski August 20, 2025August 19, 2025

    I have a fear problem. 

    A couple of years ago, I was in a terrible car accident on a rainy day. I totaled my car and broke my back. 

    And now I have an unbelievable fear of driving, especially in the rain.

    Guilt is Not From God

    ByKatherine Wisniewski May 28, 2025May 28, 2025

    I was convinced I had missed a step when I became a Christian because I didn’t act like a Christian. I was too angry. My temper was too short. And no matter how many times I asked my children nicely to do something, I always ended up yelling at them. Perhaps I wasn’t good enough to be a Christian. After all, even though I’d heard this verse a thousand times, I didn’t feel like a new creation: “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.”. (2 Corinthians 5:17, ESV)

    Mom: Mayhem Or Magic?

    ByKatherine Wisniewski May 7, 2025April 12, 2025

    Are you a stressed-out, anxious, exhausted mom? Is there a recurrent pattern of “if only” in your mind? If only I could get more sleep. If only I had more time. If only I knew the right way to do this. If only I knew the right words to say. If only I had more patience. If only I could be a better mom like ____.

    HUG – Held Until God Moves

    ByKatherine Wisniewski April 23, 2025April 2, 2025

    Why are hugs so magical? Sometimes, all we need is a hug to melt away all our stress, make us feel safe, calm the storms raging in our minds, and reassure us everything will be okay. When life gets tough, we need a warm embrace—not words, not advice, just a hug to make us feel better. Why? Hugs let us know we matter and are loved.

    Pause Before Speaking the Truth in Love

    ByKatherine Wisniewski March 5, 2025April 10, 2025

    So, how do we know when to be silent or speak? I believe the answer is to pause. Pausing keeps us from rushing in with a reprimand and enables us to be helpful rather than hurtful. It allows us to choose our words carefully and reveal God’s truth.

    Love Changes Everything

    ByKatherine Wisniewski February 12, 2025May 28, 2025

    When someone is in love, people say, “You are glowing!” Perhaps this is because feeling loved warms our souls and illuminates our whole being. However, this doesn’t only apply to romantic love. Knowing we are loved changes us. We perceive ourselves differently, act differently, react differently, and love differently.

    Try, Try Again

    ByKatherine Wisniewski January 1, 2025January 9, 2025

    “If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.” This is advice we should all heed. Or should we? There was a point in my life when I thought if I just tried harder, I would stop letting God down. I knew that He forgave me when I sought forgiveness. But I was convinced that because I kept making the same mistakes again and again, I was a huge disappointment to God.

     Kindness Makes Us Beautiful

    ByKatherine Wisniewski December 11, 2024January 9, 2025

    Sometimes, we all just need a little reminder. I was losing my mind and taking it out on the poor security alarm repairman when he gave me a half-smile and pointed towards me, indicating I should look down. That’s when I realized I was wearing my “Be A Nice Human” T-shirt. So, I immediately shut my mouth, burst into tears, then apologized profusely. The kind repairman handed me a Kleenex and said, “It’s OK.” I try to remember to always offer kindness because you never know what someone else is going through.
