As much as I’ve expressed in a previous post how 2021 was the hardest year I’ve had in a long time, there have been monumental gifts from God amidst it all. For this is I am grateful! The gift of Gods presence and His abundance is far too great to describe. I can tell youContinue reading “More than Conquerors”

31 Days of Gratitude
2021 may have been the worst year I’ve had in a long time. As I talk with others, there is a similar thread no matter the differences. 2021 was a difficult, heartbreaking year for many. I wish that I could say that justice came flooding in and whatever was lost was restored but it hasContinue reading “31 Days of Gratitude”
He is…
This morning I heard a whisper. I know His voice well. It is a voice I long to hear every waking moment and in my dreams while I sleep. He said, “I am returning everything to you.” It has felt like one loss after another for quite some time lately. It hasn’t felt like devastationContinue reading “He is…”
He is in the Tiny Details and Mishaps!
I had every intention to be out the door as quickly as I could. My husband was waiting for me outside to go on our first date in several months. No sooner had I picked up my things did I have to put them back down. The garbage my husband took out had leaked ontoContinue reading “He is in the Tiny Details and Mishaps!”
Quiet Waters
Staring at a tsunami, awaiting its violent collision. Somewhere between a deep breath and a teardrop the massive wall of water stopped right in front of me. Instead of being overtaken, peace even in the waters settled as what was intended to destroy me became a mysterious beautiful wall. The waters are calm and quietContinue reading “Quiet Waters”

I somehow had this fairytale image in my mind that a perfect, faith-filled life meant that there would be zero strife, and everyone would like me and my family. Oh boy, was I believing lies! Nothing about the past 20 years or more hasContinue reading “Breaking Up With Easy- choosing Love and Grit!”
New Mercies For A Hard Day
There are a million words I have wanted to say and a million thoughts that have dropped from my eyes. Tears have often been the only words needed to communicate when pen to paper runs dry and words fail to communicate the sorrows and the joys.Oh what great beauty there is when victories come everyContinue reading “New Mercies For A Hard Day”
All Figured Out… Not
How many times do we think that we have to have everything figured out? Or better yet, how many times do we act like we have it all figured out and we don’t? The people in my little world often think that they must have it all figured out. But they are still learning. EachContinue reading “All Figured Out… Not”
Brewing Up A Magic Elixir
What kind of routine do you have for prayer, meditation and reflection? One of my biggest loves is time with Jesus! I plan and imagine how I want it to be. I prepare like I would if I were spending time with my best friend in person. Coffee time. It is like a perfect magicContinue reading “Brewing Up A Magic Elixir”
So I Laugh
Lately I have been intentional to find more ways to laugh and to choose joy. This dog literally made me laugh until I cried when he got home from the groomers last week. Laughter often fills up our home and pushes out the feeling of heaviness. When I laugh in my home it literally makesContinue reading “So I Laugh”
