So I have this favorite rocking chair…

September 8, 2010

It sounds funny to even type that title because this little rocking chair isn’t exactly comfortable. It is hard in places and sometimes it squeaks. Still, it is perfect for my height. I’m short and unlike most other rocking chairs it doesn’t leave my legs cramping after long bouts of rocking babies… and I have [...]

Over and Over I’ve failed at trusting Him.

September 7, 2010

Maybe I’ll get it this time. I almost seemed to have no trouble trusting God for most things unrelated to money. Maybe it is because my childhood was riddled with lack or because I had to struggle as a single mom. I say that but He always provided. We have never done without. Still I [...]

In Pursuit of Proverbs 31 Bible Study -LIVE online

January 18, 2010

I have been pondering the questions that have plagued the hearts and minds of so many: Why can’t I get it right? How can I find more time to get it all done? Why isn’t God helping me? Women have been the target of some outrageous media propaganda that sets our flesh racing in the [...]

What I hope to accomplish in 2010…

January 5, 2010

I have had a few people ask me what my “goals” are for 2010 so I figured I would finally sit down and figure it out. I never put out resolutions. For me they only serve as a reminder of what I didn’t accomplish so I prefer to have goals. I can usually achieve those. [...]

Too many spiritually immature Christians?

October 30, 2009

I think at one time or another we have all looked and someone else and thought that we were more spiritually mature than that person. I know I’ve done it. …too many times. But then I usually sense God speaking to my spirit and saying that we are not all on the same scope of [...]

Girlfriend! Don’t Eat the Cake!

October 26, 2009

For a couple of years now I have been on this health kick. We have been taught over and over again that we must watch what we eat. The bad stuff may taste ever so sweet when you’re savoring it on your tongue but when you are carrying that weight around afterwards it just doesn’t [...]

Perception of Happiness

October 19, 2009

This morning I happened to catch a segment on the Today Show about how women’s happiness is progressively declining. Apparently, research shows that women who are well educated, successful, healthy, and achieving all of their goals are still not happy. In fact, while going through a list that consisted of: being a mother, achieving a [...]

She Reflects…

August 4, 2009

Wow. It is a rare occasion that I am at a loss for words. I mean I have a rather large vocabulary and yet all I can think to say is wow when I reflect back on the weekend that just passed. She Speaks is likely the most informative, encouraging, uplifting, and Christ-centered conference that [...]

Don’t put up with it anymore…

July 21, 2009

There are so many women and men that I know who have been harmed by the entertainment and marketing industries. Sex seems to sell more burgers, body spray, and laundry detergent than any other form of marketing. It is harmful to say the least. I have watched my self image deplete after trying to compare [...]
