My pastor has a phrase that I’ve heard him say a thousand times: “God will let you have your way until you don’t want it anymore.” Hashtag Truth. My life certainly has been proof of that idiom’s veracity – in some seasons more than others. But I believe that as we grow in Christ, that [...]
Have you ever met parents who had an ugly baby? I'm serious! You know you have! And did you ever tell a ‘white lie’ (if there is such a thing) to the parents saying, “Your baby is so cute,”? I’ll admit that I have! And here’s where telling those ‘white lies’ has backfired on me: [...]
Recently, I have been studying the Book of Romans and have been discovering the Gospel again in a fresh and exciting way. Doctrinal truths that I always read and thought I understood suddenly became deeper and more revelatory than I had ever experienced.

Years ago, my husband and I were trying to build a house for our family of 6 children. We found the perfect lot and house plan but a glitch was going to hijack our dream. God is pouring out a grace for the impossible things in your life. Check out this video to find out [...]

Words in Red are excerpts from my journal as I have been taking the words of Jesus and letting them speak directly to my own heart. John 6:61 “Does this offend you?” Lord Jesus, I honestly have to admit that there have been many times that I have been offended by You. When I was [...]
Don't pass on that which is Free.
Trust God's process
Don't let bitterness, loss or the past define you.
Tuning in to God's voice in every season
I learn a lot of lessons from my garden. I don’t know why it speaks to me so much, but the Lord uses nature and my garden to teach me some pretty profound concepts. This past month, the lesson involved my compost pile. Almost a year ago, after much cajoling, my husband, created a compost [...]
