Our oldest son was the biggest of all three of our children. He was so big that he completely skipped newborn diapers and went straight to size 1. I guess you could say he came into this world as a big boy and to this day, we refer to him as our “Big Man”. AsContinue reading “Builder of the Broken”

All to Him
As I get older, I have become more and more reflective of every aspect of my life. How am I spending my time? What message am I sending with my life? How am I as a wife, mother, sister, friend, etc.? There are so many questions. However, I have very few answers to any ofContinue reading “All to Him”
Prayer for Direction
Father, Thank you for loving us unconditionally. Thank you for sending your son, Jesus, to die on the cross for our sins. We ask that you forgive us for our trespasses. Help us to forgive and those who have trespassed against us. Give us a heart that hungers and thirsts after your righteousness. Fill usContinue reading “Prayer for Direction”
Wait on the Lord
Since leaving my job of 17 years in August 2018, I have been in a time of waiting. I have not been given instructions about my next career move or even if I will even return to my field. Although I have done several temporary jobs over the last few years, in the meantime, I’veContinue reading “Wait on the Lord”
How Are You Living?
Last week, my sweet husband, asked me a very important question. He asked,”If you knew you were going to die soon, what would you do?” My mind immediately started to ponder the question. How would I live? What would I do differently? How would I decide to spend the rest of my time? All ofContinue reading “How Are You Living?”
Trust Him
This morning, I thank God for continuing to confirm His plan for my life. I just want to encourage you today. If God tells you to do something, do it regardless of how crazy it seems or how you/others may feel about it. Be wise. Every opportunity that sounds good may not be what GodContinue reading “Trust Him”
Reflect
This week is Holy Week. It is the week that Jesus was on His way to a horrific death on a cross, accused, whipped, died on the cross, buried, and rose from the dead. I have been trying to simply meditate on what that must have felt like. How did He feel? What was onContinue reading “Reflect”
Tears
My heart has been broken,My heart has been filled with joy. My heart has been played with,As if it were a toy. My life has been shaken by grief and strained,My feelings discarded as if they were spare change. I’ve lain my head in sorrow,I’ve lain my head in pain. I’ve felt like I wasContinue reading “Tears”
The Goodness of God
Last week, I was blessed to be able to spend a few days by the ocean. While sitting on the beach, I looked out at the ocean. I could only see the shore where the water met the land but I could not see where it ended. All I could see was its vastness andContinue reading “The Goodness of God”
Will You Answer?
One of my pet peeves is being ignored. There is nothing more irritating than calling, texting, or speaking to someone and them not answering knowing you are talking to them. If it bothers me, I can only imagine how the Father feels when He is speaking and we fail to answer. I’m guilty of ignoringContinue reading “Will You Answer?”
