“Or if he asks for a fish, he will not give him a snake, will he?”
— Matthew 7:10 NASB1995
🐍 No Snakes from God
Life gets confusing when we pray and feel like God ignores us—or worse, when something hard happens instead. But Jesus says: God doesn’t hand you pain when you ask for provision.
His love is secure. His timing might stretch your faith. But His heart doesn’t change.
🔎 Real Talk:
- Has something painful made you question God’s intentions?
- Can you look back and see how He protected or redirected you?
🙏 Prayer:
Lord, I want to believe that You don’t hand out snakes when I need help. Grow my faith when things don’t make sense. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
