This morning, as I reflect on a mistake I made years ago now. It is natural to lament mistakes. I knew at the time it wasn’t right in my head, but my heart said another thing. Simply put, it is easy to be deceived by flattery and charm. That is why God is our guide. […]

Our hope comes from God. Simply put, we have to trust God and nothing can be stable in life without trust. If we trust in God, our stability is unshakable. We remember what He has done and how faithful He will be. He is always near to us and loves us more than we can […]

So many of us hurry through this alone time with God, but really it is the most precious time of the day. It is like a grandchild spending one-on-one time with grandparents–a time to be loved, focused on, built up. God anticipates this time with us. We should anticipate this time with Him also 💕 […]

The past two years have been filled with many demands on my time!  Demands to pack, unpack, prepare, plan, solve, clean, put away, teach, raise, etc.  I love setting goals and achieving them.  As I start a challenging goal that I have not spent enough time on, I am determined now to break this goal […]

Today, I will spend a block of time, even 30 minutes, pursuing a dream God has placed on my heart. Today, I will enjoy the 3 incredible blessings […]

Wherever we go, with our feet or our thoughts, Christ comes along. He listens, He hears, He knows our innermost thoughts. He knows our hearts perfectly.  Christ comes along. As Emma and I drove back from NC to GA today after a fun-filled week that Emma had with her grandmama, we played “I spy” and […]

I recently visited with some precious friends. They shared valuable insight in such a sweet and loving way. One friend I just met for the first time. They were such a comfort to me, seeking to help me heal and understand. I confessed that there is still much I do not understand in my daily […]

You know I used to be called a little bit crazy for how I would openly trust Jesus and pray and rejoice over answers to prayer.  I know something has been depleted in me over the past two years, a little bit of doubt and hardship can move us further away from the direction we […]
