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

With ALL My Heart?
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?
Sewing the Patches of Our Lives into Wings
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. And sometimes it’s a good thing, because we needed to change into the glorious creature we are created to be. The wondrous thing… Continue reading Sewing the Patches of Our Lives into Wings
Telling Toys About Jesus
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqSeD5xSfME I hope you enjoy this most precious video of my speech-and-language-impaired son. I printed out what he is saying (with a little interpretation). I don’t want you to miss a bit of it. Here is the whole story. M loves Pokemon. He likes to look them up and find videos and information… Continue reading Telling Toys About Jesus
Doubt is Unbelief
Stop doubting and believe! John 20:27 Jesus' disciples had just been through the worst time of their lives. Jesus, their teacher and friend, had been killed and placed in a tomb. 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
We Are Not Alone
"Christmas is a reminder that we are not alone." My aunt shared this quote with me and it resonated within me. God touched humanity with Jesus---the greatest gift of all. Love came down at His birth. He provided a way to live with HOPE in the midst of despair. To have a FRIEND when… Continue reading We Are Not Alone
I AM
The words I used to put after "I am" were not very nice words at all. I didn't like myself much. I felt like I could never measure up or please everyone, although I spent most of my waking minutes trying. When I'd do something just for myself I'd feel extremely guilty and like I… Continue reading I AM
He Will Heal The Brokenhearted
A friend of mine is going through a heartbreaking time. I made this for her today, and thought I'd post for anyone else who needs to hear it. The "He" in this quote is God, and the words are from the Bible. Several years ago, when I was enduring the same kind of emotional devastation… Continue reading He Will Heal The Brokenhearted
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. When I am a bit tired of working, parenting alone, being this age with kids, being indoors, wanting something fun, loneliness, just… Continue reading Life Ain’t Always Sunshine and Roses
A Minute Speck
Humans... with technology we've gone from thinking the world is flat to thinking that we are "all that". To believing that our world is so large to believing we are "in charge". However, this whole incredibly amazing universe, larger than we can comprehend, Is held togther in the Almighty Creator's hand. And to think that… Continue reading A Minute Speck
