I am So Glad You Came!
Hello lovely ladies!! And welcome! I really can’t believe I am actually writing my very first blog post! Although this has been in the works for what seems to be forever ago, I still can’t believe it!!! Its so amazing how the Lord can take a small desire from deep down inside of you and transform it into something incredible. Around 15 years ago I wanted to find a way to encourage other women in their walk with God and in some small way help them navigate through life’s difficulties, I really had no clue how I would do that, but it all started with that one desire.
“Delight yourself also in the Lord and He shall give you the desires of your heart” (Psalm 37:4)
Discipled Sprouts (This blog) grew from a desire that God sprouted in me a very long time ago. It kind of evolved alongside the publishing of my children’s book, The Trees and the Land of Other Waters. An objective of Discipled Sprouts is to dig into the word of God and learn how to practically Live God’s Word in our day to day lives. The closer we walk with the Lord and grow in His word, new sprouts of life begin to emerge. These sprouts need to be nurtured and fed so that they may grow to their full potential. Whenever God breaks new ground within us, it’s beautiful, but it can also be challenging and scary. That’s when we need to Take Heart.
“ Be strong and take heart, all you who hope in the Lord” (Psalm 31:24)
I want the posts on this blog to inspire, encourage and build us up. To be courageous enough to step out in faith with the Lord as he grows our sprouts into trees that produce great fruit for His kingdom. This is something we will do together! And finally what about those of us who have mini sprouts in our lives, watching our every move. Our children are precious sprout-lings God has entrusted to us to disciple them and Train Them Up.
“Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it” (Proverbs 22:6)
As a mother of 4 children, I understand how difficult it can be to teach our children God’s word in its true form. I want Discipled Sprouts to be a resource where parents, grandparents, foster parents, and anyone else with children in their lives can find bible study ideas, lessons and crafts to make teaching the word to our little sprouts fun and engaging. This specific desire is what led to the writing of my new Children’s book The Trees and the Land of Other Waters. Visit MyBook page to check it out and order a copy.
Thank you in advance!

So let’s Live God’s Word, Take Heart, Train Them Up and Disciple our Sprouts together….You ready? Lets Go!
