I trust it now!
I enjoy walking the streets of Manhattan. There is usually something happening and if nothing is happening, people are just always around. As I was walking to an event, I walked past two men, who were also walking, but deep in conversation. The snippet of the conversation I heard one say was ‘I trust it […]
Who do you love more?
I love how my daughter loves me. There will be times when we are doing our own thing – she may be playing or doing something else, and she will pause and say ‘I love you mom’. I just love it. One day this week as we were standing in our kitchen, doing whatever it […]
Move in Faith
This morning I laid in bed asking God what my topic was going to be. I started asking a few days ago.. silence… As the clocks went backwards this morning, I was able to wake up my usual time, but the clock indicates it’s an hour earlier. So, I debated whether to try to go back to […]
Lessons in patience
My daughter has finally discovered the joys of a pair of jeans. In the past, she has received them as gifts, but were only worn once or twice, on the absolute coldest days of the years because of the crying and hysterics that went with her wearing a pair. Recently, her friends gave her another […]
Overnight success?
I was speaking with my daughter’s dentist. My daughter LOVES going to her, and she’s been seeing her since she had only a few teeth. So, over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to talk with her about various topics ranging from family, vacations, religion and sharing my profession with her. In the last year, […]
Walking in obedience
I met a friend on the train a while back. I saw him reading a devotional and I interrupted him and gave him my blog card. I felt a little weird doing it – but felt I should. When he was done, he explained that he had been trying to catch up as he had […]
Smile, someone needs it!
Have you ever had a heavy spirit and you just don’t know why? All seems well enough, but something just feels off. That’s how I felt much of this week. Off, without being able to place my hand on what was wrong. When my church day came, I had in mind that I wanted to […]
Pray for one another
A few days ago I saw my neighbor as we were both walking to our children’s school. I asked how she was doing. Her English is very limited, so she told me that she was ok, however her husband was in Turkey. As someone who loves to travel, I exclaimed ‘good for him’. As best […]
The fragility of life
Today, I turn 40! It’s an incredible feeling as I think of my life and all that has transpired in the last few years, but most visible to me, the last year, to get me to where I am. As a result, I’m both grateful and humbled. But just within this week, I have been […]
Entertaining Angels Unaware
This year for my big birthday, I decided to do a big trip. As I love traveling and have been to many places in the Caribbean, I decided this trip should be a little different. I decided on a trip to Europe. If you know me and directions, I’m excellent at getting to my ‘almost […]
