  • Day 6 – Today I Pray

    Today I’m going skiing after 30 years of avoidance.  The last time I went I fell off the ski lift – didn’t even make it to the top of the mountain before I took a spill.  This sport will probably not be my forte, but I have been convinced to give it a try.  After…

  • Day 3 – Armed and Ready

    I have been so excited to get into God’s word that last night I almost just stayed up past midnight getting started.  I probably should have…might have been divine prompting…because this morning has been one mishap after another.  I’m on outfit number 3.  I apparently have 6 single socks with no partner…I searched with that…

  • Leaps of Faith or Waiting on the Lord?

    Sometimes life comes at ya kinda fast, doesn’t it? I feel like for the last 4 weeks I’ve done nothing but rush and run and rush some more. I made decisions…took leaps of faith…and God opened doors just when I thought I was going to hit another wall. My journal has been full of questions…

  • Are You Giving UP?

      I was talking with a friend lately about how it feels like for the past 5+ years God has asked me to give up A LOT! Sometimes it feels like all I’m doing is giving up people, things, hopes, and dreams… Sometimes it has felt unbearable and sometimes it has been relatively easy. Sometimes…

  • Looking for Peace in all the Wrong Places

    I believe I’m carrying burdens I wasn’t meant to, but I don’t know how to let them go. People are always advising me to just trust God and let go of the worry.  I’m trying to…I truly am. I know I can trust God. I think I can let go of the worry. But somewhere…

  • Wanna Take a Look Back with Me?

    The other night…can’t remember which one…I had the absolute best idea about a New Year’s blog.  I was so excited and completely sure that I’d wake with no problem remembering the topic. No such luck…I only woke with a remembrance that I had something I was going to remember. Bummer. So I’m left trying to…

  • God’s Plan…Perfect

    No Pretty Little Bow I’ve been trying to figure out a good way to start this post. I just can’t think of one. So I guess I’ll just share stuff with you and hope that God uses my fuzzy thinking to bless! He’s good that way. Yesterday my Dad went to be with the Lord. …

  • 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…

  • Wading Into the Waves Holding My Savior’s Hand

    Wading Into the Waves Holding My Savior’s Hand Just saw that my newest blog is up at MomLifeToday.  I hope you enjoy it. I’d also like to ask for prayer as I begin a new book proposal!  Working on Chapter 1…draft number 1,365,279…just kidding, it just feels that way! I’m so excited about the idea…
