Late Night

I read somewhere that people shouldn’t talk about their healing process. That recovery should be done quietly.  I guess I understand on some levels where that would be beneficial. You don’t discuss your plans, you just do them. When you want to get ahead at work, you do it, you don’t tell everyone what you’re … Continue reading Late Night

I was pregnant with my third child.  Now, I must admit, I was not the typical joyful pregnant woman. I was mean and hateful. Every day, I fought the urge to hurt myself.

Wouldn’t you think that pride deserves accolades? Pride is boastful, after all, right? Pride puffs up, right? So wouldn’t blessings … Continue reading My Soul

Some are given the gift of prophecy, others the gift of service…some people can speak in … Continue reading One

Recap

When I first started writing this blog, I posted multiple times each week. Sometimes more than once a day.  There was always something on my mind.  I was always excited and anxious to post; thinking the more I put out there, the better I would become.  Later, I realized I needed to pace myself. I … Continue reading Recap
