This isn’t my usual thing, but needed to take a second and get this out. Gosh, I feel like I am rotting away. I know I am full of sin; I fear my heart isn’t always where it should be. But my flesh is literally rotting before my eyes. I’m not alone in this struggle … Continue reading Struggling

Take Time
This morning, I was doing some thinking. I was thinking about something my mom would say to me when I was sick. She would ask me if I would rather go to work and do what I could and get paid for being there, or sit at home, feeling bad, worrying about work and not … Continue reading Take Time
Little Thoughts
Uncertainty…the storm approaches but all I feel is calm, a peace during this storm. My thoughts and my trust is in my Lord, the One who made the winds and rains. Why trust anyone or anything other than the Creator and Master of all? Take comfort in God. The Lord has been comforting His Children … Continue reading Little Thoughts
Blinking Cursors
Do you ever want to type a message to someone but you sit there and stare at the blinking cursor, not knowing what to say? Like you have something on your mind, but you can’t get it to meet your fingers or you can’t even form the words? You just sit there and stare, willing … Continue reading Blinking Cursors
Possible
What is impossible? Someone sent me a message the other day about how where the impossible begins, that’s where God starts working… I get it. I understand what the person was saying.

Targets and Mercy
I might be the only person who feels like this, but I feel like I have a target on my back. I feel like people stare daggers through me. But why should they? Really, so much of the time I feel invisible: like I really don’t matter anyway; so why would someone waste their time … Continue reading Targets and Mercy
Thought for the Day
Every now and then, I have a “thought for the day” that I write and share with a few close friends. Today the thought was from Colossians. I want to share what I wrote for today, but first tell a little story. Like other parents out there, I try so hard to keep up with … Continue reading Thought for the Day
Walking
On my walk today, I was reminded of the need to breathe. Sometimes life has a way of making you stop or slow down and focus on your breathing for a moment. And I was reminded to take a minute and look around at all God’s glory. Just take a moment and listen to the … Continue reading Walking
How Often…
How often do we lie to ourselves? When we look into the mirror, do we see ourselves as we are, or do we see our reflection distorted by our imagination? Do we show ourselves any grace? How often do we tell ourselves we’re not good enough? How often do we put ourselves down? How often … Continue reading How Often…
Thankfully
Some days start out good. You get things done, have a good time, enjoy the ride… And then you get stopped… Out of your control… Just hang on… Thank the good Lord for the circumstances surrounding this; it could have been much, much worse. Thank the Lord for protection and provision. Thankfully God has His … Continue reading Thankfully
