Life can be very interesting. It has a way of hitting you over the head and opening your eyes. A few years ago, I got an eye-opener. I realized that a great part of my life had been spent building and salvaging relationships. From a young age, I have always had to be the oneContinueContinue reading “What Triggers You?”

Cynical Cyanide
I was pretty excited when my dear friend asked me to write for her blog. My first thought was, “God, I have so much to share about everything You’ve done for me!” I was convinced the Lord would lead me to talk about worship, His great provision, or His ever-present nearness in dark, difficult times.ContinueContinue reading “Cynical Cyanide”

Heavy Baskets
My parents divorced when I was very young. Because of the nature of their divorce, I never had a relationship with my biological mother. After decades of drug abuse and mental health problems, she took her own life before the Christmas of 2000. As you can imagine, even though we were estranged, her choices andContinueContinue reading “Heavy Baskets”

Since becoming a stay at home mom, I’ve found great joy in beingContinueContinue reading “Break Away”

It has that casing we are familiar with but what will it say? What kind of writing will it have? WhatContinueContinue reading “Trees”
So They May Know
This past week has been a challenge. Our daughter came home last Monday from school not feeling well and it led to a sequence of unexpected events. Throughout the night, she kept waking up feverish, with a headache, saying that she was being bitten while sleeping and bumps kept popping up all over her body.ContinueContinue reading “So They May Know”
Invite Him
Recently, I heard a close friend say in a sermon that, “God is always present but He’s not always included.” Immediately, I began to bust the myths that God is not listening or He’s just a little far from me. No. He’s a gentleman and wants to be invited in not forced. He wants toContinueContinue reading “Invite Him”
If We Only Had a Heart
If we only had a heart, We wouldn’t look on as the innocent die, Or turn a deaf ear as children torn from parent’s arms cry. If we only had a heart, We would see human and not race, We’d understand that because of Our Father everyone has a place. If we only had aContinueContinue reading “If We Only Had a Heart”
