I am about to enter a new season...Grand-parenting! I am going to be a grandmother very soon! Yipee! My beautiful step-daughter Ashley is having a little boy and is in labor today. Oh, how I wish she didn't have to go through what she will endure in the next few hours. Ask any woman who has given ... READ the POST
Joy is promised after the pain…
Keep Calm and Continue in Him
My eyes opened once again to pain. With no position comfortable I shuffle about trying to find relief. The past few days were good, but not today. Pain, the kind that even hurts when you breathe, the kind that robs your thoughts and threatens to steal the brightness of a new day, a new week. The big ... READ the POST
The dance of hiding…
I don't know why, but most of us have learned to hide.... Hiding is empty--a far cry from the life of abundance and freedom that God created us for.

Holy Days of Christmas #7
December 21. Surrender. It's hard. It's not natural to us to surrender to a God we can not see.
