You never know when something profound is going to hit you, but as I sat in my kitchen wasting time on Amazon.com waiting for my husband and son to wake up on a Sunday morning I was struck as I searched the words, “You Are My Sunshine.” A few weeks ago when I was goingContinue reading “Full Circle Moment”

{Just Go Home}
Disillusioned with God? Feel like he has let you down? This reminds me of the little kid who decides he is fed up with Mom and Dad and is going to run away from home. He packs his bags and heads out the door down the long driveway. When he gets to the end of the driveway he pauses. AsContinue reading “{Just Go Home}”
It’s Never Too Late
Well, we are over half way through Lent and I wish I could tell you that this year’s experience was the best one ever. Unfortunately I’ve struggled a bit this year, and to be honest, there is no good excuse why. I always have GOOD intentions throughout the day but life seems to be tooContinue reading “It’s Never Too Late”
{The Puzzle}
One thing I really like to do, but don’t do very often is put together a puzzle. From time to time my extended family will put one together during the HoLiDaYs. It’s a great time to visit with them and enjoy their company. Depending on the size of the puzzle it may take us hours or evenContinue reading “{The Puzzle}”

How many times have you made pRoMises to your loved ones that as soon as your list is marked off then life will be better and you will be able to FINALLY give them your full attention? Having lists can be a goodContinue reading “Don’t Get Caught Up in the Catch Up”
{Addicted To Thumbs Up}
Let’s face it. We love people’s ApPrOvaL. Not only do we love it, but if we are brutally honest, we may have to admit we’re addicted to it. So much so that it can dictate our life. But ultimately, there is really only one “ThUmB’s Up” that really matters. It’s God’s. And I have to ask myself, howContinue reading “{Addicted To Thumbs Up}”
From Mommy with Love
What advice would you leave for your loved ones if you knew you may not live the life you envisioned? This past month I was faced with one of the scariest unknowns of my life and by the GrAcE of GoD everything turned out fine and I am here to write about it and inspire.

{The Answer Is In The House}
With a tough EcoNoMy like the one we’re in, many people find themselves in a challenging financial position. Many are looking to take on second jobs to make ends meet. It reminds me of a talk I heard back in college. My alma mater, Oral Roberts University in Tulsa, Ok required us students to attend chapel twice a week. These were aContinue reading “{The Answer Is In The House}”
