“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses…”
— Acts 1:8a, NASB1995
Power ≠ Platform
In a world chasing followers and likes, remember:
The Spirit gives power not for platform—but for witness.
This power helps you stand when you want to blend in.
It gives you words when you feel weak.
It’s the fire that fuels obedience, even when it costs.
Jesus didn’t say if the Spirit comes—He said when. That promise is for you. Not for show, but for mission.
Reflection:
How would your daily choices change if you remembered that you walk in Spirit-powered strength?
Prayer:
Holy Spirit, I receive the power You give—not to impress, but to witness. Help me be bold for Jesus. 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.
