  • Fascinating Number 5

    Kindred spirits. It’s a term I was first introduced to many years ago in the series of books, Anne of Green Gables.  A friend who is so much like yourself, who understands you on a level that few understand, and who accepts you as you are- that is a kindred spirit. And that is what my…

  • Another September 7

    Today I noticed a few brown leaves on the driveway. I’m pretty sure they died of heat exhaustion, but still, I like to think that maybe Fall is on its way.  I’m trying to notice the acorns that are falling off the oaks around the yard, trying to notice how long it takes the squirrels…

  • Get Anchored…Stay Anchored

    The 9th annual FB Perry women’s conference is less than a week away. It was really an honor to be asked to share my book, Soul Anchors, at the conference, and I’m looking forward to the fellowship and encouragement that’s going to happen next weekend. During this process of preparing to speak, I have really been…

  • Stay Anchored

    Excited to be getting ready for the 8th Annual Women’s Conference at FBC Perry, and so honored to be presenting with this great team of dynamic speakers- Traci Powell, Christy Grantham, Wendy Wilson, and Becca Wilton.  These ladies are my go-to friends for prayer support, spiritual guidance, and encouragement from the Word, and I know…

  • Got A Miracle?

    I love hearing about the encounters that people have had with God. Those moments when He has spoken so clearly. Those times when He has provided in that “just in time” way that almost makes us chuckle at ourselves for doubting (after we’ve exhaled that sigh of relief). There are other times when circumstances of…

  • That Day

    One day, it will be That Day. It will be the day that I wake up and go through the same motions I go through every single day. Drinking that glorious first cup of coffee. Having my quiet time with my bossy cat competing for lap space with my Bible. Taking a shower. Make-up. Hair.…

  • All the Ways We Hurt

    We have all known pain. Whether physical, emotional, or spiritual- pain is not a respecter of persons; it does not play favorites. There are all sorts of studies on pain and how we experience it, why we hurt, who (and why) has a higher tolerance for pain, and the various methods that people use to…

  • On Its Way!

  • Written In Your Book

    Last Friday evening I got a phone call that a dear friend and former co-worker, Maria, had passed away suddenly. We were all stunned. Maria was the kind of person who was always full of life, always carried joy with her, always had a smile. It was (and still is) hard to wrap our minds…

  • Four Thoughts for Holy Week

    Holy Week is an opportunity for us to take the time to clear away the clutter and busy of our lives to focus on those things that are of eternal importance. So often our thoughts and hearts get distracted by things that don’t feed our souls. This week, I am making the time to meditate…
