Listening to foolish advice
Have you ever made a decision based on bad information? This is what happened to Haman in the book of Esther. Esther had earned the kings heart. She was described as ‘lovely in form and feature’. The way it is explained, Esther won what appeared to be a beauty pageant for the place of becoming […]
Do you remember?
Finding Dory spoiler alert… I spend a lot of time watching animations with my daughter. Sometimes there are such powerful underlying messages. In this animation, Dory, a very forgetful fish had gotten separated from her parents when she was little. Many years later something jogs her memory and she remembers that she had parents....
What some see as your weakness can be your gift
Many years ago, I was sent to a professional training. It was two weeks of intense training. Towards the end of it, we had to be critiqued by our peers. Back then, although I had been in the professional world for a few years, I was somewhat switching roles. I was a little shy to […]
Comfort and Compassion
Last night as my daughter and I were going through our bed time routine; she has me read her as many books as I allow and I read my one devotional thought. I had been asking a specific question of God earlier in the day, and it seemed the topic I was reading, was just […]
Finding comfort
My friend lost her sister. I randomly called my father to tell him that I was coming to see him. Then he broke the sad news that our friend had lost her sister. She had not been sick for very long, from the time they found her illness to the time when her body just […]

I am without a phone today. When I got to the train platform I started looking in my bag and realized I did not have it. As I sat on the train, I reached for the phone because it’s the perfect time to catch up on my news, friends and social media. I did not […]
Comparison is not your friend
I recently shared with you about a part of my experience attending the She Speaks conference for writers and speakers. There are many lessons I took away from my three days, and as they come to me, I’ll share them. In preparation for the conference, I had to write a one pager for my publisher […]
Understanding
I keep coming across this topic, so I think I’ll share with you. I don’t know why it still surprises me that after all this time, when I seemingly have nothing to share, that God had already provided something for me, and was just waiting for me to accept it. Hmmm. It seems like this […]
What you need. Where and when you need it!
So, I feel guilty for not posting for the last week, but life has just kinda happened and I didn’t quite know what to share. I have been praying, but it seems nothing has really come. I came out to get my lunch and just saw the following on the side of a truck – […]
