  • Do You Really Want to be Where I Am?

    “I wish I could get to where you are…I still feel so hopeless, sad, or angry.” Whenever I hear that I want to say, “Trust me, you DO NOT want to be where I am!” I struggle a lot with things. I have moments where I feel like disaster is imminent…where I can’t possibly do…

  • School Supplies and A Serious Lack of Sanity

    School Supplies and A Serious Lack of Sanity I hope you enjoy but don’t really identify with this blog!  At least the beginning!  I’m praying that I will get better about making decisions but boy oh boy do I struggle.  God keeps faithfully meeting me in all my anxious indecisive thinking and loving me out…

  • Do You Feel Loved?

    Today I feel loved. Lately it’s been difficult to grasp that I’m lovable…that anyone could really and truly love me. And yes I know that God loves me…perfectly, relentlessly, beautifully, unconditionally, and passionately…all the ways I want to be loved.

  • Surviving the Storm with Some Sanity

    Surving the Storm with my Sanity God keeps reminding me that He is the answer.  That living without Him and time in His Word, just doesn’t work well.  I forget that His yoke is easy and His burden is light…my yoke is heavy and crushing at times. Even if you can’t handle your life,  I pray…

  • Am I Really a Wimp?

    There was a time in my life when my ex-husband and I would joke about our lack of sleep. Our little saying was, “Sleep is for wimps.” I’m here to say….I’M A WIMP!!! I want sleep so badly…so very badly. I can’t remember the last time I got a really truly good night’s sleep. I…

  • Am I a minute from angry? Or a minute from peace?

    “Momma! Look there’s a tea with the word Relax on it! You should get that!” “Yes. Yes I should!” I replied. And although the tea is very yummy and I’ve had several glasses, it has not helped me relax…or I’m just too stressed for words or tea or anything… I hate being stressed. I can…

  • Snoozing Times Four

    Today I pushed snooze 4 times and then took a 2 hour nap in the afternoon.  I woke with a throbbing headache.  Not a stellar day… On top of that I’ve been trying to give up my coca-cola addiction and I completely fell off the bandwagon.  Ugh.  Although I do have to say, I completely…
