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! Have you ever thought about fasting? Me neither! (Hee, hee!) Seriously, I have never thought of fasting being relevant to my life. It’s not that I don’t think it should be done, I just have never thought of doing it. Plus, my idea of people fasting has always been of the Israelites in the desert […]

It’s been hard getting back into the swing of things after last week’s spring break and time change. I think I would have been just fine had we not ‘sprung forward’ and lost an hour, but I am extremely grateful that it happened on a week we could sleep in!! The week flew by for […]

I just can’t let this week get by without talking about one of my all-time favorite people who had her first birthday in heaven last week. Susan Birdsong has spent the last year hanging with God, Jesus and others – while the rest of us have continued to struggle, work, sin and try to make […]

Yesterday was Ash Wednesday. Of course, this means that the march towards Easter is under way and the ‘reason for the season’ is weighing heavy on the hearts and minds of Christians everywhere. Lent has officially begun and its traditional purpose is to prepare believers through prayer, repentance, change and sacrifice. Sounds kinda like a […]

As seen in Thursday’s blog, taking care of yourself is crucial in order to be a valuable servant in the world we live in. Clearly, when we don’t get the rest, exercise or God’s Power (through scripture and prayer) on a daily basis we become useless. However, the next step in the process is to […]
