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! I SURE HAVE MISSED YOU, GEM!!! Between the holidays, traveling and guests, I haven’t had a chance to write! But, now I’m back and ready for my future!!! Wait a minute!! It’s three days into the New Year and I already feel like I’m behind the eight ball! WHAT?!?! Stop. Take a deep breath. Exhale. […]

Lately, I’ve been sharing with you the words and actions that I have the most trouble with when trying to live obediently to God’s will. However, today I want to touch on the first and most significant task that leads to greater freedom from sin…training and taming our thoughts!! Obviously, our thoughts lead to our […]

Did you get the memo that life was going to be easy? Was there a section indicating that life was going to be fair? I sure didn’t! I’ve been checking my mailbox, my inbox and my Facebook messages regularly, but have yet to receive such a notice. Sigh…. Unfortunately, many of us believe that life […]

I love to dance. My mother-in-law loves to watch Dancing with the Stars. We make quite a pair when we sit down to watch an episode. She adores the costumes and shoes and I have to sit on my legs to keep myself from jumping off the couch whenever a fast tune twirls the dancers […]
