“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses…”
— Acts 1:8a, NASB1995
Power with a Purpose
Jesus didn’t send the Holy Spirit to make you feel strong—He sent Him to make you bold.
To speak truth when it’s easier to stay silent.
To stand firm when the world calls you to compromise.
To love when you feel empty.
This power is not for performance—it’s for witness.
Whether you’re serving in your home, praying in secret, or standing for truth in a dark world, the Spirit equips you. His power strengthens your resolve and fuels your obedience.
Reflection:
Where in your life do you need the Holy Spirit’s boldness today?
Prayer:
Holy Spirit, fill me with Your power—not for my own strength, but to be a faithful witness of Jesus. Give me courage to obey. 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.

● I don’t have a budget for an editor, publisher, or team behind the scenes. Everything you see here is created prayerfully and paid for out of pocket, using the tools I can afford to help present a clear, polished message of truth and hope.
