I've been through a lot in my lifetime. I used to feel a little sorry for myself if I'm being honest. I can remember sad, pitiful, moments when I whined at God because "He must love everyone else more than me since life was so unfair", blah blah blah. I'm ashamed to admit that, but … Continue reading Don’t Waste the Chains

Light and Gravity…and Tears…
If the world were made of tears, I'm sure I would have cried enough to hold us all. If the tears I cried became substance, then no one would ever fall. If light were there by chance, we'd all be doomed. If light is life and God is light, then baby it's high noon! Never … Continue reading Light and Gravity…and Tears…
It is Enough!
This post is a little different from my standard posts. I'm sharing with you what I wrote this morning while reading my Bible. Last night was a particularly difficult night for me. This morning, Is brighter because His word brings life and hope. Hopefully, you can glean something from it that will encourage you today. … Continue reading It is Enough!
Don’t Settle for Seasoning
There once was a man named Naboth. You'll find him in I Kings 21. He had a vineyard. The only problem with this vineyard was that it was just a little too close to the residence of a certain king named Ahab. Ahab decided he wanted an herb garden and offered to buy Naboth's vineyard. … Continue reading Don’t Settle for Seasoning
Who Told You that You Were Naked?
There they were in the garden. Man created in the image of God. A single rib taken to craft stunning beauty, a helper designed with detailed intent, a companion worthy of him. The crowning achievement of the Father warranting an affirmation of "goodness" from the lips of the one who'd just spoken the world into … Continue reading Who Told You that You Were Naked?
O Ye Stubborn Masses
I come from a long line of stubborn women. I too, am stubborn and opinionated. It's just a fact, plain and simple. It can be a gift. I will not quickly bow to the fanciful voices of other gods vying for my attention. I firmly stand in the face of opposition with confident composure believing … Continue reading O Ye Stubborn Masses
Sing me a Song
I've been singing and playing music in church most of my life. I wrote my first song when I was three and my mother insisted that I sing it for everyone. I clearly remember refusing to do so unless she held my hand...she did. It was my solo debut. To answer the most commonly asked … Continue reading Sing me a Song
The View from Above
What's the view like from up there? I often marvel at the way you can love us with such depth despite the messes we've made. The problem of pain exists only because we seek to blame you for the bad without crediting you for the good. You see us reeling from the consequences of sin. … Continue reading The View from Above
Labor Day
Once a year, we get to cease from our "manic Monday" lives, and be celebrated for the impact our working has had on our society. We mark the end of the summer with this hiatus. We light our grills, don our shopping garb and hit the sales, relax with friends and family. We get to … Continue reading Labor Day
What it means to dive deeper into God’s word
Blinded Sight on loan from the maker of reality and I glimpse only a fraction of the picture The parade of time marching before me and I am subject to the constraints of the sidelines Thirsty Deep calls to deep, leaving me wanting more Spirit river laps gently Calls me in, downward to the deep … Continue reading What it means to dive deeper into God’s word
