STRENGTH…. This is the one word with which I would describe last week. Christ truly gave me incredible strength to drive solo down to Disney, spend 5 full days at all the parks, and drive back. I had little to no voice the whole week too. Several friends asked me before I left if I […]
Hatred.
This is a feeling, a mindset that people cling to after feeling wronged. I’ve thought often about it lately as I contemplate the world around me and even events in my own life. So many times I have learned from God’s Word, Worship music, and sermons, that forgiveness sets the hurt one free. It’s not […]
Our Comforter
This word comfort is showing up often lately for me. As I sit here in my car charging my phone so I can take pictures of my kids and Girl Scouts for Field Day, I am doing my devotion and it is about comfort. 2 Corinthians 1:3-7 says that God comforts us…so that we can comfort […]
God, can you fix this?
I loved reading something I felt deep in my gut that I knew was truth from Beth Moore’s twitter. She said sometimes God doesn’t fix a relationship either because the other person simply doesn’t want to or because He knows the relationship is not going to work out. Although this can be hard to accept, […]
Inadequate? Thank-you Jesus!
I heard a lady say recently in a bible study…with such honesty and transparency, which I treasure…I feel so inadequate. I loved the bible study leader’s response and began thinking about the topic of inadequacy myself. The bible study leader responded with the truth that we are all inadequate, and that we can be ok […]
Easter 2017
I love Easter for so many different reasons. This Easter was so special to me. Visiting with family, watching my kids love on the people I love and seeing my relatives adore and cherish them as well. There is nothing like the love that God intended for families. I really do enjoy the Easter Egg […]

Write…Purpose for this summer.
All my life I have loved writing. From the time I was 8, I was journaling pretty much every day. It is how I understand life. It is how I express myself. It is how I sort out what I think, feel, and want out of life. It is a way to document. A way […]
Emma’s a preschooler!
I wrote this title last summer…as Emma entered into preschool and I started my master’s degree. This year she enters year 2 of preschool. I cannot believe how fast she is growing. How tall she is. I was looking at her torso…her toes…her feet…they seem to be growing every single day! She has a strong […]
You must TEACH.
Written last summer…. Often I have heard people tell me I have a teacher’s heart. Often I have longed to teach. NOW IS THE TIME. Have you ever had the feeling like it is now or never? That is what I am experiencing right now. My eldest will be 8 in October, middle one 6 […]
