Transition can be difficult especially for those of us that have difficulty finalizing plans and committing to the very steps ,one must take, to actually get to the promise land. It is no wonder to me that the 12 spies, which Moses dispersed to observe all the Lord had promised, came back holding the grapes, but only two wanted to…

What If Mary Didn’t Believe That Motherhood Was a Ministry?
Mary, the little girl that said, ” I am the Lord’s servant. Let it be to me according to your word.” I can’t imagine as a young teenager the courage it took for Mary to produce these words, and when you leap frog through time , these words, still have the ability to move any believer’s heart. What trust…
Are You Wanting to Leave God’s Legacy Behind… Or Yours?
I often marveled at how long it took for our heavenly Father to get me to the point of being able to use me to spread the gospel. What a road trip that was. I spent at least 25 years living for myself which is AKA for fumbling around in the dark with only shadows of who I could be…

What if you didn’t have a traditional family?and second, being a follower of Jesus Christ, what is the ,ideal, Godly family?…
Defending God’s Character
It is a shame how God gets introduced into people’s lives for I have discovered that it is this very first impression, of others point of view, that always seems to need correcting or adjusting down the road . In a world that is all about first impressions it is no wonder that the masses of people, worldwide, have…
Feeling Like a Misfit? You are not alone…
Christmas is such a festive time of year, and with all the hustle and bustle of gift shopping I simply wanted to sit back and be entertained so, I thought how could I let the season pass without tuning into my favorite holiday classic Rudolph the red nosed reindeer. It had been a while since I’d seen this red…
Learn to Pause and Take in the Goodness of the Lord in the Land of the Living
One morning I woke up and decided to take a break from my daily kale smoothie, and head out to have breakfast at this “mama-papa shop” just a bit from where I live. The thought of having my eggs prepared with green peppers and onions with a side of corn beef hash just brought a smile to my face. I love…
Is there really nothing new under the sun?
As I was visiting this amazing place, Emeralds Bay, I could not help but think of the infamous line in the book of Ecclesiastes when the writer , Solomon, son of King David, utters the words that there is nothing new under the sun. What a statement to make, and furthermore how does one get to a place , a perspective in his or…
