John 15: 1-8 15 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2 He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes[a] so that it will be even more fruitful. 3 You are already clean because of the word I haveContinueContinue reading “Hold On to the Vine”
Stronger Than Before
Our oldest son has always been a big guy. When he was born, he was so large that his collarbone was broken during delivery. We couldn’t pick him up under his arms for at least the first 6 months of his life because the bone had to set right in order to heal. So, weContinueContinue reading “Stronger Than Before”
He Keeps His Promises
Come Back Home

I refused to bring children into the world and not be capable of doing the right thing as their mother. I would not wish the thingsContinueContinue reading “The Ones Who Have Gone Before You”
Remember When…

He asked, “Do you remember when you prayed for where you are now?” That very question caused me to pause and reflect on where I am currently in my life. Immediately, I began to recount the many petitionsContinueContinue reading “Remember When…”
Protect Your Peace
The early part of my life was filled with discord, chaos, and everything opposite of peace. For this reason, I have always been determined to fight for my peace because I knew my sanity and overall well- being depended on it. This became even more important and intentional after I got married. You see. IContinueContinue reading “Protect Your Peace”
