>It’s been an odd day. Just one of those days where the spirit sits upon me, and I can feel every ounce of the presence. I thank God for days like this. For days when He is so thickly spread upon my heart that I know there is not a chance in hell that Satan […]
>Redemption. The forgiveness of sins. What a blessing, what a gift. We have absolutely nothing to offer Him, yet he chooses us. What a privilege. Not only do we get to be forgiven, but we get to use the gift of forgiveness and redemption to bring others to Christ. He not only forgives us, but […]
>Lauren and Ryan both go back to school tomorrow! I am a bit sad, a bit anxious, a bit excited, and a bit uncertain. For some reason, this new start to the school year is reminding me of New Year’s resolutions. Although, the year on the calendar is not changing, in a way this seems […]
>My beautiful Lauren has her first tryout for Nutcracker tomorrow, and although I would love to see her up dancing on the stage at Christmas time, the true joy this week has been watching her twirl around in ballerina outfits believing with every fiber of her being that she is a princess.

We have indeed created an environment where it is all about me. We even have things like blogs, HA, and facebook, HAHA, that are […]
>John 16:33 “I have told you all this so that you might have peace in Me.” Peace in Me. Not peace in financial stability, not peace in love with another person, not peace in success or accomplishments, not peace in a new purse, but peace in Me. I’ve looked for peace in many places, and […]
>Why is it that we want so badly what is so not good? Wouldn’t life be more simple if we just craved what was good for us? Like broccoli and water and whole wheat bread. If we never wanted to watch that show that glorifies having sex with multiple partners, or if we never wanted […]
>Tonight I am reading, again, some of Beth Moore’s book Breaking Free, which might I say is PHENOMENAL if you have never read it. The section I read tonight was powerful enough for me to want to share it with all of you. I hope it blesses your life as it is blessing mine in […]
