Christians in the Gritty
Christians. Sisters. Best Friends.
Walk with us as we take you into the grit of life.
Together we have been through cancers, loss, fostering, co-parenting, and the list goes on. We laugh, we cry and we use God's strength and scripture to try and encourage you to draw closer to God.

Thankfulness Grows Your Faith
Christians. Sisters. Best Friends.
When we are thankful we don’t have room for worry. God did not wire our brains that way. Being thankful in prayers and remembering who God is and what He has done and can do strengthens our faith. Faith is everything! Faith is our salvation. Faith is how we have healing. Through faith we do God’s works. Our trust in God comes from having faith. We must have faith! We grow it with thankfulness in God and knowing Him!
Philippians 4:4-7 ESV
“Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice. Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand; do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
James 1:2-8 ESV
“Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind. For that person must not suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.”
