Do you like roller coasters? My kids LOVE roller coasters! Three years ago when my daughter was only six, we went to Silver Dollar City in Branson, MO. We stood in line waiting for the Powder Keg. As we got closer, my daughter decided she didn’t want to ride. I coaxed her onto the ride, […]
A couple of weeks ago, I was cleaning out a closet when I found a large area of mold in my drywall. What’s a single mom to do? Of course, I called my daddy. Within 48 hours, we had a plumber at the house to take a look at what we assumed was a leak […]
Today is my 36th birthday!! If you are doing the math, you might find that a little difficult to believe. After all, I’ve been divorced for four years (anniversary this week) and I was married for nearly 17 years. That means I got married around the age of 15. Let’s add another interesting thought: I […]
Last week, I wrote about Supermom—the Proverbs 31 woman. While it is noble for us as women to aspire to the example in Proverbs, many of us find ourselves crippled because we don’t measure up (at least in our own eyes). It is a daunting description of the ultimate multi-tasker; she seems to bear all […]
Who can find a capable wife? She is far more precious than jewels The heart of her husband trusts in her and he will not lack anything good. She never speaks an unkind word to him, always builds him up and encourages him. She is his biggest cheerleader, in private and in public. She works […]
As we enter the new year, God has planted a great sense of anticipation in my heart. I have an overwhelming sense that God has great plans for me in 2014. I feel as if my years of wandering in the wilderness are coming to a close, and I am on the verge of entering […]

“I love you,” I told my daughter. “I love you more,” she giggled. “I love you most!” I responded wryly. “Dang it…” I’m sure many of you know the game. We have played it repeatedly in our house, always trying to outdo one another with our love. Until one day… As we were driving […]

These last few weeks have been tumultuous. I’ve found myself on a roller coaster of emotions as circumstances have left me reeling. I’ve sought legal counsel to figure out how to proceed. I’ve been on my knees in prayer. I’ve turned to friends who know my situation well and are always there to offer wise, […]
Do you remember the story of Joseph? Joseph was a dreamer. Joseph was favored by his father. Joseph was attacked by his brothers and sold into Egyptian slavery. But, God looked down on Joseph and blessed him. The Lord was with Joseph so that he prospered, and he lived in the house of his Egyptian […]
