Waiting. Ugh! I don’t know anyone who likes this word. And yet, so much of our lives is spent that way. One of the most visual forms of waiting is during pregnancy. Those of us on the “outside” can see progress toward that wonderful and beautiful day. However, the brain of the mom is constantly… Continue reading Waiting
I’d like to change how you see yourself just a bit. Those of us who love God with all of our hearts are called to a higher purpose. But it also makes us part of a very special group of people—God’s inheritance! Say what? Yes, that is a “head-scratcher” for sure. How could we, with… Continue reading We Are What?
Only God Could Orchestrate This! I have to share.... if you ever wonder whether God orchestrates things for us to delight us, reassure us, and provide for us, among other things, just look for them. God is always working behind the scenes for our best! And one way He shows that is through His divine… Continue reading Only God Could Orchestrate This!
Busy. So very busy. Overwhelmed. Keeping up. Appearances. Tasks and “to do”s. He came into our world quietly. This birth was the most extravagant act of love in all of creation.Like all babies, pushing his way into the middle of people, some who would love, some who would hate.

I feel the responsibility toward my dependent children very deeply. I read this Proverb today. So,… Continue reading Surrender? For real?
Shhh! You are too loud! Can't you just sit still for once? I don't have time for this (you). Your body language offends people. You're too big to dance. Don't be so bull-headed. If you are going to act like a baby, then... Words. They can speak life or death. As scripture tells us, there… Continue reading Wounding Words
Sometimes we just feel like garbage. I’m not talking about when we are ill, and our bodies feel like trash. I mean when someone degrades us, or we can’t accomplish something we have worked really hard at. Or when we realize that we have screwed up big time. Or we disappoint someone whom we love… Continue reading The Great Recycler
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
