From the book Indestructible by Blake Healy, these sentences really grabbed my attention: "The enemy is fighting to get you to see things his way becausea simple act can release a massive amount of God's goodness,leaving a mark that can last for generations." Satan does not want us to realize the power that is ours… Continue reading Focus on His Light
I’ve been reading Psalm 139 a lot this week. If you haven’t read it in a while, or not at all, perhaps that should go on your list of things to do. The whole psalm is full of wonderful, life-giving words. Since I’ve read it several times, imagine my surprise today when God caused a… Continue reading Confidence and Strength
Tell your story! Seriously, once you share the hard stuff, several things happen:* it's not as devastating because it's no longer hidden* you actually "hear" it as told to someone else and often make more sense of it* your story helps someone* you take away the paralyzing power of what happened to you,… Continue reading Tell Your Story!
So I saw this meme on the internet, and thought I'd comment about it. And then God begins to peel the layers off and heal in between each so that your heart can once again love and receive love. It's a real process, for sure. It takes time--for me, several decades. It's not a pleasant… Continue reading Onion Layers

Fear divides us. And I know that there are so many things that cause fear right now. I’m not down-playing the dire situation our world is in. But honestly, how does it help us to bash people, to write ugly comments about our leaders, to become hateful about certain people? Y’all, our strongest weapon is… Continue reading Quit Yer Yappin’ And Pray!
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
There's a sense of urgency in my spirit this morning. We need to pray for our nation! We have become acutely aware of how helpless we really are. We need God! Pray that God will pour out His mercy, His grace, His love, and cover our nation with it. The world too. But today, it's… Continue reading A Call to Prayer
