Christie Lambert is a small-town, southern writer who is daily amazed by the love of God. Although she loves fiction and has published a few short stories here and there, her writing is now focused on sharing the grace of Jesus that has swept her off her feet. She is usually doing laundry for her three small kids and musician-husband, drinking (too much) coffee with her sister, and reading while cooking (not recommended for those who like edible meals). She is currently obsessed with learning how to play the guitar and finishing her degree in Religious Studies. Christie can be contacted at christiedlambert@gmail.com.
Christie has written 44 on Christian Women Online.
If you’re feeling a little worn down, a bit distracted, stretched thin over the needs of daily life… take a break. Get away, even if it’s just for a few minutes… even if it’s just to your bedroom or the front porch… and talk to Jesus. Trust that He is concerned with the things of […]

Hungry. Tired. Lonely. Maybe these aren’t words we usually associate with the King of Kings, but His divinity was wrapped in the same flesh we wear… So imagine yourself there, alone in the desert for forty days. Worn out by the weather. Desperate for comfortable rest. Aching for sustenance. This is where the Spirit of […]

Sean jumped in the car after school today, threw a paper in my direction, and said “Read this!” I glanced over the newsletter and saw the announcement of a new school-wide project. As he buckled in, he announced that we needed to go home and find shoes that we don’t need or that don’t fit […]

Over the last few days, I’ve been thinking a lot about Jesus. Since we’ve been talking about how God is our King ~ our creator, provider, Lord of all ~ it awes me even more to think about how Jesus was willing to leave His heavenly throne to walk among us. I love reading about […]

I am praying tonight that we find rest in the joy of our First Love.
Laying it all down at the altar of grace... this is where we find our peace. And we need You, Lord. We need You when the day is long and our bodies are tired. We need You when the problems are bigger than us and our hearts are weary. We need You when we don't know what to do next. We need You, when our minds are so full of this-and-that, to become the Center of us. We need our eyes on You and Your Spirit within. We are weak and we need Your strength. We need Your living water to fill all these brittle and dry places... more than anything else in this world, it is Your love that we need.
Let us not lose heart and not lose the hope in this ~ Jesus, we are Yours.
Holy Spirit, come fall afresh on me...
~ Christie
