I am a wife, mother, daughter, sister and friend! I desperately want to morph my life into a journey that glorifies God and makes Him proud. I am not a bible scholar, a pastor, a teacher or a person who is qualified to counsel or guide. However, God has given me the gift of gab and a talent to write, so I have decided to do what I do best to help others. I hope you will give me grace, as I'm sure I will make plenty of mistakes during this adventure! Life is full of decisions – from choosing what to wear to changing professions. Daily we are required to decide which direction to take and what choice to make. Not all decisions are life-altering, but several ARE! Take for instance, someone lies to you. Do you call them up and ball them out? Do you […]

Ever since the Veteran’s Day celebration, I’ve really been thinking about honor. What it means. And how to actually DO it. Clearly the first question is easily answered. In fact, Webster’s Dictionary defines honor as high regard or respect (noun) and adherence to principles considered right (verb). As always, it gets a little tricky when […]

It’s amazing what breaks my heart these days. I used to be crushed by someone not liking me or a sad Hallmark commercial. A few years and a little bit of maturity has grown my spirit to look outside of myself. Of course, I’m still very selfish (I think I’ve made this clear in past posts), but God has […]

Have you ever looked at your life and wondered, “What needs to be done?” More importantly, have you ever scanned the world around you and wondered what it needed and how you could provide for it? Huh. Lord knows I need to do this more often. My sister, Heather, recently shared this question with me […]
