Life’s pretty crazy for me right now: work, kids, my sister’s wedding, the list goes on. I’ve got lots on my mind but no time to put it down in writing. I hope this whirlwind will stop soon. I really don’t like being this busy and as I’m in the midst of it, it’s hard for me to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I’m sure this […] Read More
My good friend, Ninette, has jumped on the band wagon and started up her own blog. You can catch her at Livin Forgiven. She absolutely amazes me. God absolutely amazes me. I have seen Him take her life and totally transform it. She ‘glows’. Before she became a Christian, just a few years ago, she was a completely different person. And she has allowed God to do this amazing work […] Read More
I cleaned out my storage room today. I am a pack-rat by nature and today I set out to get rid of a lot of stuff. I ran across several things from the days when I was in Bible school and when I was dating Mike, even stuff when we got married. Eventually all those memories took their toll on me and I just had to stop and cry. Grieving […] Read More
I’ve had a few days of ‘no responsibility’, a few days of the truly bachelor life. It was nice. Wednesday evening, I sat in my hotel room and read the newspaper for probably close to an hour. It was so nice just to sit and read, with no interruptions, no having to feed someone or put someone to bed, or deal with some altercation. I guess there’s a lot of […] Read More
Ok, I haven’t been here for a while and I must admit, I miss it. Anyways, a little about my life… at this moment, I am in another city taking a 3-day selling course for my company. Today was the first day and I am loving it! I love to learn and I also love the fact that I have a few days of ‘no responsibility’ (a.k.a. I’m not responsible […] Read More
My friend Ranya has started her own blog. You can check her out at www.hearherwalk.blogspot.com.
It’s been a busy week. You know, one of those weeks where you have a hard time remembering what you did two days ago. My brain feels like mush. I know I’ve had a profound thought at least once or twice this week, but they escape me right now. I’m enjoying being engaged. It feels a little weird at times, to be talking about getting engaged to all my married […] Read More
– by Steven Curtis Chapman ~ The morning finds me here at heaven’s door A place I’ve been so many times before Familiar thoughts and phrases start to flow And carry me to places that I know so well But dare I go where I don’t understand And do I dare remember where I am I stand before the great eternal throne The one that God himself is seated on […] Read More
Once upon a time, there was a princess who married a prince. They lived happily together and had two boys. But then the prince died, and the princess was left all alone. But she was never really alone, for her heavenly Father loved her very much and had already made a way for her and her two boys. Because He knew the beginning from the end; He knew how everything […] Read More
I had a bit of a revelation today. Some of you will probably be thinking, ‘well duh’, but I think I’m understanding it in a deeper way. As I accept myself for who I am, I have the freedom to accept my children for who they are. There is less fear of what people may think and less pressure on my kids. My children do much better and are happier […] Read More
