I wrote this during a time of excruciating difficulty. I feel that someone needs it, as well as I , right now. Because I've been a control-freakish-type person, relinquishing has been really hard for me. But, I do know that Jesus is the One I turn to. Hope this helps you today. Hugs… Continue reading Relinquish
I say I love and follow Jesus with all of my heart. But the true story is that I can only love with the part that’s been healed from its wounding. Feeling abandoned and rejected, looking for love in all the wrong places because of my abuse (can I get an amen?), not loving myself… Continue reading With ALL My Heart?
Do you feel worn out, ragged, in bits and pieces? Sometimes we feel as if the world has pulled at us so much that there’s no resemblance to the person we were.

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
January. Ugh. People are like, “Oh I love the beginning of a new year! I’m setting my intentions. I’m writing my goals. I’m picking a new theme or word of the year”. And I’m like, “Nope, just let me crawl back into bed.” In Michigan where I live it’s one of the grayest, dreariest… Continue reading Too Exhausted For Goals!

He provided a way to live with HOPE in the midst of despair. To have a FRIEND when… Continue reading We Are Not Alone
