"I’ve really been aware the past two weeks of how much salt and light matter to those around us," says SEELE editor Ally. "It often may feel and seem that those around us aren’t seeing our faith or getting enough of Jesus. But, they are, even though we may not realize it.

SEELE editor, Ally poses the question: “why Settle For A Good Man When You Can Have A Godly Man?” In this day and age when the world is becoming more challenging, we need men who are also half bearers of the image of God to know their identity in their Creator God, to be surrendered to God, to know what it means to walk with Holy Spirit, to be filled with Holy Spirit, and to rely our Triumphant God as he leads his household.

For today's Friday Post, SEELE’s Editor Ally, shares when you know God and are walking with Him, Son and Holy Spirit you will know your identity and value in HIM. And because of that, you will position your life to be lived from a place of victory, only accepting the whole loaf, not crumbs because crumbs aren’t fulfilling- they don’t satisfy.

For today's Friday Post, SEELE’s Editor Ally, shares a challenging question: "Are you living from a place of purpose?" The most fulfilling life is when we choose to live from the purpose that God has called us to live and Ally points out how important this question was for Jesus and how important it us from us.

We’re all getting back into the swing of things in this age of Covid, and as we start up again, we may be faced with questions of trying to discern the voice of God. Some of us have been asking God for months or years, “what should I do in this situation?” Some of us have been trying to discern the voice and will of God in a matter for so long that we’re exasperated wondering, “where is He?” In these moment, we must exercise wisdom to discern His will.

For today's Friday Post, SEELE Editor, Ally shares in a new series that as the world is getting back into the swing of things in this age of Covid, we must remember that it is God Who we will need in all seasons to get through all types of situations.
