About

Thank you for stopping by! I'm Emma - blogger at Eshet Chayil and I'm so pleased you're here.

Eshet Chayil is for women who are hungry for more of God and want to go deeper in their relationship with Him.

Perhaps you've been going to church for years and you read your Bible and pray but you still feel that something is missing. That there must be more to walking with God than what you've known so far.

I grew up in a Christian family and gave my life to Jesus aged 5. I had a very happy childhood and never walked away from God, but as I've grown older I've come to realise that He has so much more for us than just a 'nice' Christian life!

I discovered that when we truly trust Him and allow Him in to our everyday moments, giving Him permission to change us and do His work in us, we find that He starts to do incredible things.

Our hearts begin to change, our perspective shifts and circumstances that once felt unpleasant and difficult become avenues through which He molds us to look more like Jesus!

Now, as a wife and mama to two littles ones, I am so thankful for all the work that God has done in my heart up to this point. However, I'm also continually seeking to be changed by Him through His word as I know I can't do anything in my own strength (I'm sure all mamas can relate!). I want my faith to be grounded in Him on a moment by moment basis.

My desire in writing is to simply share the things the Lord is teaching me. Whether it's a Bible study, a devotional, a reflection or a narrative telling the story of a woman in the Bible, I pray you are encouraged to trust God fully, obey courageously and live wholeheartedly for Him.

Whatever season of life you're currently in, I'd love to walk alongside you - subscribe below to receive regular encouragement into your inbox. Let's go on this journey together!
