My husband and I just celebrated our 20th anniversary with a trip to the beach with no kids. It was the first time we had been away from them together for more than a night or two. We had a great time together and enjoyed getting to relax. But as I was sitting in the… Continue reading A Reminder For Moms

Do you know the longest chapter in the Bible? It’s Psalms 119. I read it today, and I was so convicted by how much the author delighted in God’s Word. “I seek you with all of my heart.” “I have hidden your word in my heart.” “I delight in your decrees.” “My soul is consumed… Continue reading Help Me Love You More

I saw a bird perched on a small tree. As it opened its wings to fly, it revealed its gray and white striped wings.  It made me think about how God put so much thought into every single thing He created.  Isn’t it an amazing thought that God designed that bird? And He designed every… Continue reading God Cares About You

Life’s not fair.  We know this.  Some feel it more than others.  Whether it’s people mistreating us, sickness, death, or tragedy after tragedy, I believe we can agree that life’s not fair.  And because we’re human, when life’s unfair, we get angry; angry at people, angry at circumstances, and even angry at God.  But what… Continue reading This Life’s Not Fair

I was stopped at a red light today with my kids in the car. We were talking about the places we needed to go and the food we were going to eat for lunch.  The red light was one of those that lasted for.ever... I happened to glance over to the car on my left… Continue reading Everyone’s Struggling…Be Kind

Wouldn’t it have been amazing to be a disciple and walk with Jesus? They were with Him every day.  Watching and learning.  Listening.  Yet, they still had to learn to follow Him.  They probably still had their own ideas of what they should do and how they should do it. So they still had to… Continue reading Walking With Him

I went to visit my Pappaw yesterday, and the kids were playing ball in the grass.  They were laughing and having a good time and it made me think about my Mammaw.  She LOVED to watch them play. It brought her so much joy.  And in my mind I thought, “Mammaw sure would love to… Continue reading How Magnificent Heaven Must Be

Do you ever see someone else doing well at something and want to do the same? Maybe you notice everything they are doing and follow the exact same plan but it doesn’t work out for you like it did for them.  Sometimes it doesn’t matter if you have the same skills, talents, and resources as… Continue reading Uniquely You

I don’t think most people struggle on a daily basis with murder. Or stealing. Or even lying or adultery.  But we see these as “big” sins.  Lately the question God has asked me is, “Is pride in your heart?” And the more I read the Bible, the more I think about all the different ways pride… Continue reading How To Be Humble

As I went through the carwash today, it reminded me of the last year... As I sat alone in my car watching the spinning brushes and scrubbers come towards me, it felt familiar.  It reminded me of the feeling of knowing something was coming, yet not being able to do anything about it.  As the… Continue reading Carwash
