The Desires of Our Hearts
Today is my birthday and normally, I keep a very low profile, but this year, I wanted to be intentional with the celebration. There are some things I have been learning about myself and decided it was time to make changes in areas that were important to me. One of them was being intentional in […]
Trust Him
I started writing some years ago because I needed to process my thoughts with God. I’ve tended to keep everything close to the vest, so, writing became the outlet I needed. Then God told me that I should share publicly. As I’ve shared before, I came up with every excuse I could, but apparently none […]
We Can End Well
As a last summer hoorah, my mom friend and I decided to take our girls to the bowling alley. The girls excitedly called out the order they wanted to play in. None of us were real bowlers. This was just a game for fun. As we commenced the game, I noticed that some were scoring […]
It Does Not Pay to be Rude
As our annual summer trip to Jamaica ended and we sat on the plane ready to leave, I noticed an interaction between a passenger who was taking his seat and the flight attendant. The flight attendant, in a very calm voice was saying something to the passenger. The passenger was very dismissive to the flight […]
Just Breathe
The last few weeks, I’ve been reading and seeing different things about our breath, and the ways we choose to breathe, depending on how life is happening. One day, a devotion was shared on sighing and what it meant. The title was ‘Your Sighing is a Symptom’, and there was a scripture from Psalm 38:9 […]
The Doubts Will Come
I finished the second round of self editing on my new book this week. It has truly been a labor of love and one of the hardest books to write and put together. God asked me a poignant question, then told me that it was time to write. I’d had the title of the book […]
Choose Wisely
One of my least interesting facts about me is I enjoy scrolling social media. It has a way of sucking you in, so I try to be cautious with my use, but I’m not always successful. I also enjoy reading a good story. I love seeing or reading different perspectives of people based on their […]
Keep Showing Up
I had the privilege to attend the She Speaks Women’s Writing and Speaking conference this weekend. Saying it was amazing is an understatement. This was not my first in person attendance as I had attended in 2017. I marvel at and with God at how much has changed in my life since then. As I […]
‘It’ll be ok.. Trust Me’
On one of our summer adventures with my daughter and her friend, we had a scheduled event. We arrived with enough time to find parking and pay. As I pulled up to the meter, I started looking around for quarters. When we all pooled our quarters together, we ended up with four. Yay! That will […]
From Heartfelt Prayers to Miraculous Moments: Experiencing God’s Faithfulness
A few weeks ago, I met up with a friend. We transparently shared our hearts with each other throughout the afternoon. We shared some joys, doubts and all the things as we were not only friends, but professional colleagues. As it became time to drop me off, this beautiful woman pulled into a parking spot […]
