So really. Why would you follow in the exact footprints of someone else? They do not have YOUR unique qualities, gifts, abilities, and desires, and you don't have theirs. Should you fashion your life after what other people say? Should you let what is important to them be what guides you? Perhaps to some degree, if they are… Continue reading Write Your Own Script, My Dear

Priority #1
Do you know what our first priority is? To love God. Not try harder or work harder or strive to get it right to be enough for Him. Just simply love Him. It’s all He ever wants from us. Really. Just love Him. Like a little child loves a parent. They don’t work hard at… Continue reading Priority #1
Firestarter
Do you have a "firestarter" in your spirit? You know, something that can easily ignite the kindling of shame, guilt, and accusation that the enemy has so carefully laid? Firestarter=the lies that pile up, the beliefs you base all your self-loathing on, the guilt that eats away at you. Dearest friend, that's the enemy at… Continue reading Firestarter

BUT...Who taught us these lies/myths we believe are true? The old adage "If you tell a lie long enough it becomes truth to you"… Continue reading Are You Believing Lies?

Life Ain’t Always Sunshine and Roses
So here’s the deal. It’s NOT always sparkle and shine in my life. There are days like this week when I am burdened for a precious friend and feel helpless in the situation.

YOU are Amazing!! And don’t you forget it!
You ARE amazing!! I finally began to believe that about myself after a few days of saying it out loud in front of the mirror. The year was 2008. For most of my life I'd felt "less-than" so it took a bit of making a firm choice and perseverance to follow this program. I'd… Continue reading YOU are Amazing!! And don’t you forget it!

Three days later when some of the disciples told Thomas they had seen Jesus as the risen Lord, Thomas told them he had to… Continue reading Doubt is Unbelief
Too Exhausted For Goals!
