Laquo; The Most Excellent Way. The Crux of Christmas. Here I Raise My Ebenezer. September 25, 2011 by simplyxkristin. 8220;Here I raise my Ebenezer, hither by Thy help I’m come…”. The term Ebenezer that this hymn refers to actually comes directly from Scripture. The Hebrew term literally means Stone of Help. Certainly, though, setting up a literal stone to serve as a reminder to me of God’s continued faithfulness in my life would not be quite as meaningful nowadays as it was back then. Now, I have to adm...

Laquo; The Crux of Christmas. When Good Friday Feels More Like Bad Friday. January 5, 2012 by simplyxkristin. I’m really bad about finishing things that I start. Especially books. I blame it on my self-diagnosed ADD, but maybe it’s just that I can never make up my mind. Call it what you will, but I more often than not will get halfway through with one book, and then pick up another to start from the beginning. It’s a vicious cycle. I am inspired to do the same, whatever that may look like. This young gir...

Laquo; Celebrate Good Times, Come On! Here I Raise My Ebenezer. The Most Excellent Way. July 1, 2011 by simplyxkristin. It’s a sensitive word these days. One that rings true for too many of our ears, and quite honestly, one we’ve gotten a little too comfortable with and now generally accept it as ‘normal’ or ‘common place.’. I may be young, but it doesn’t take brilliant mathematician to look around and see it. Far, have something. Nice, and still not be satisfied? In more cases than we realize, an epidem...

Laquo; Searching For God Knows What. The Most Excellent Way. Celebrate Good Times, Come On! April 22, 2011 by simplyxkristin. I actually wrote this 2 Easters ago on my old blog. But I still think it’s worth reflecting on:. It is It is because of the events of ‘Easter’ that we even have a foundation to our faith at all. And while we should be grateful for this every day, Easter is our Passover, in a way. It is our one day a year to go all out, to get really dressed up, and to really, truly celebrate.

Laquo; Here I Raise My Ebenezer. The Crux of Christmas. December 20, 2011 by simplyxkristin. Every year it’s the same battle Consumerism versus Christ. Writing out a wish list, or remembering what it’s really about. The busyness of the season sweeps us all away, and every church sermon series is there to remind us all in its own clever way that Jesus is the reason for the season. And yet, somehow, I still wonder if that’s really the point. I wonder if I’m not still missing something. And so it is with Ch...

A Moment Like This | Simply Kristin

Laquo; When Good Friday Feels More Like Bad Friday. A Moment Like This. October 4, 2012 by simplyxkristin. You see, lately I’ve been mapping out my life story. I hear all the time that God uses the moments and experiences of our past to prepare us and enable us to live out the calling He has placed on our lives. And I believe that’s true, generally speaking. True for everyone, that is, except me. It’s not that I don’t want. And that’s where I got stuck. Be missing something. It just doesn’t make sense.

Laquo; The Journey. A Moment Like This. When Good Friday Feels More Like Bad Friday. April 6, 2012 by simplyxkristin. In case you’ve somehow missed all the bunny rabbits and colorful eggs flooding ever aisle in every store this Sunday is Easter. The day we celebrate the resurrection of our Savior, the reason for the hope that we have. You see, it’s so easy for us. To skip straight to the celebrating because we. Already know how the story ends. For us today, we. Know He is risen. That they had been right,...

Celebrate Good Times, Come On! April 22, 2011 by simplyxkristin. I actually wrote this 2 Easters ago on my old blog. But I still think it’s worth reflecting on:. And so it is with Easter and us today. It’s not that we shouldn’t be thankful for Christ’s death and resurrection every single day. Of course we should. But God knows that we have a tendency to get very caught up in the busyness of our own little lives, and therefore forget how precious this thing really is, how. Searching For God Knows What.
