Can I Really Control the Weather?
“Mommy, it’s all your fault.” It was raining and although we had on all our pool attire, we were not heading to the pool. It wasn’t just raining, it was pouring buckets. And my five year old was spittin’ mad…spittin’ mad at me! Lately I’ve been feeling like I have absolutely no control over…

A Quiver Full of Wonderful
Recently I was interviewed for an article in an absolutely beautiful Christian magazine.

I was distraught. I was so surprised by…

Joyfully Enduring
Endurance: n. 1. The act, quality, or power of withstanding hardship or stress. 2. The state or fact of persevering: continuing survival. This past weekend I was blessed to hear a sermon about endurance. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to take notes because I’d left my purse, Bible and notebook in the car in my mad…
