My most-read blog to date was published on April 27, 2016. Ironically, it was probably my hardest blog to publish. It's the raw and real, a topic that's not really discussed, something I've struggled with for the better part of motherhood. I wish I could tell you that three years have passed and I've mastered … Continue reading When it’s Hard to Love (part 2)

Ferris Wheel of Faith
This month's guest blog is a breath of fresh air! Maezie Inman is a teen on fire for God; her faith is bold and inspiring.

She has overcome much through victory … Continue reading Ferris Wheel of Faith

To learn more about His character. To get to know Him better. I've been reading this week about the life of … Continue reading The Father Who Hears
Peace Over Panic
Today was a stormy day for me, in more ways than one. Literal, figurative, emotional, mental, physical, spiritual... lots of storms. I spent the afternoon in a waiting room, surrounded by severe thunderstorm watches and warnings. In an effort to be prepared, I was completely panicked instead. And so, I began to fix my eyes … Continue reading Peace Over Panic
