Mad as a hornet.

This might not be a topic you would expect to see from a Christian woman…but I think it pretty much sums up the past two years and how I have honestly felt! My faith tempers me in extraordinary ways, but deep down, I honestly feel quite mad!  Mad at lies.  Mad at injustice.  Mad at […]

Billy Graham legacy

When I heard of Billy Graham’s death just over a week ago, my first thought was…here goes!! I truly felt overjoyed that he could be relieved of his failing physical body and ushered into the heavenly gates to see the joy and author of his faith at last. Also, I realized that all his sermons […]

Embarking on an Adventure

I have several adventures coming up!  A half marathon race tomorrow which I simply love to do.  I hope to do as many races as I possibly can before I perish.  I love the energy, athleticism, motivation, and purpose a race offers.  Oftentimes, it reminds me that I am on a race myself…not a slow, […]

I asked the kids […]

I have a dream.

I embarked upon taking the first step towards making a dream come true last night…attending my first class for this winter/spring semester towards getting my MAT in Early Childhood.  I’d like to take the GACE to be a secondary English teacher as well, but all of this waits as a challenge and quest for the […]

Your Word burns inside me

King David so eloquently put it…”even when I try to be silent, your Word burns inside me.”  I have found this to be true as a Christian.  The more you know Scripture, the more you study, the more you memorize, the greater the flame inside you, and it is uncontainable. Jesus is loyal.  Jesus is […]
