Mary, a Surrendered Faith
From the moment God made Eve, He had special plans for women. Even when her own act of disobedience brought about the discipline of her Creator, God, He was gracious – He made her a mother! The miracle of having a child, the honor and great privilege of motherhood, was her Father’s loving hand once…

Be still…Be kind…Be Firm
Today I had more than a few thoughts about the circumstances surrounding our lives. I had more things whirling around than I could write, so I decided to video-blog them. But, what unfolded was me videoing and deleting until… “Be still” came into my heart and I read the words of Proverbs 16, and thought…

Kaleidoscope of Faith
Sometimes I forget just because I have not literally seen His face, audibly heard His laughter or physically sat at His dusty, divine feet, does not mean I have not truly experienced His goodness. If I would only be still, and look at my life through the kaleidescope of faith, I would see Him more…

Choices
I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live. (Deut. 30:19) Today I have been reminded how fortunate I am – and how powerful…

Going in Circles
It was a late-into-the-night kind of experience when the Lord brought me to a soul moving passage of Scripture five years ago. I remember sitting in the middle of my bed crying and begging God to speak to me- to show me what I should do. The battle between my spirit and sinful flesh ensued…

A Mother’s Day Thought
This time of year has always held a different kind of feel for me. On one hand, I enjoy celebrating my precious Momma – she is truly one of a kind. She is fierce and strong, yet tender and humble. She is a warrior princess who battles the enemy many many times as she journeys…
