If you have been praying for someone… If you have loved ones you wish would turn from their sin… If it seems to have been so long… I want to encourage you. Don’t give up! Trust God. Pray without ceasing. You are not alone. God hears your prayers. My mom was a bitter, abusive drunk.…
I’ve posted about this before. I speak as a mom who has experienced the death of my son. But it seems not everyone got the message. A young man in our community died. Two in the past week in fact. One, a college student, was shot in a robbery gone bad. The other, a 13…
Also known as sin. Recently in a lady’s Bible study, I tried to comment on a particular topic. What I tried to say was relevant to the topic being discussed, but what I said came out all wrong. I did not carefully consider my words. I did not plan what I was going to say.…
No, I’m not always serious. And I’m not always completely….hum…sane? Here is a glimpse into my brain according to my Facebook feed the past few weeks: It is Monday. And a sweet friend met me there for lunch. We talked for four hours. 😳 Almost a year ago I posted about being sure you have…

At the women’s conference I attended last weekend they spoke a lot about doing the small stuff, like inviting a friend out for coffee. But here’s my problem: I DON’T LIKE COFFEE. So, anyone want to join me for a nice glass of ice water? We can discuss our favorite books. Or our book addiction.…
This morning I packed a bag not knowing where I would be tonight. Would I drive back home or stay in a hotel? I left my house at 7 am. I drove five hours. To attend a funeral. Friends of ours lost their Andrew this week. 22 years old. Full of life. Then gone. I…
I have a friend I’ve been praying for and watching go through some stuff. Waiting for her to see the truth of the junk in her life. She called this morning ready to change it. Ready to move forward in her healing/recovery. Folks, we are all in need of recovery from something. Maybe for you…
Honesty time. I’ve been feeling like a sock lately. You know the one…the sock with holes and covered in lint and dust that you find when you move the washer for repairs.
