We have decided that someone else in a position of influence within our circle has said something we disagree with. We believe it is a matter of people being misled and losing their faith. I am not talking about sin. I am talking about concepts, eschatology, or an interpretation of the word. Perhaps it’s only over theology and whether or not the red horse stands for cinnamon or tomatoes

An open letter to the ones who have met demons but deny God.

I am kind of amazed at the people I know who believe in demons but not in God. How does one live that way? In intense fear, that’s how. It makes sense they would live covered in the slimy feeling of watching your back every two seconds. That they would have no peace in their […]

Recently I have been on a quest to understand love a little more in-depth. I have no idea how long this “love word search” will last. Maybe it will be forever. (Shrugs shoulders) I have a few heart jewelry pieces to remind me of love and where it’s taking me. I think most of us […]

The age-old question, “are you going to give up?” plagues every one of us at some point and often many times over. We are tempted to ask the words when we are on diets or in the throes of a tough exercise routine or neck and neck at the end of the race. These words […]

1. You can?t make someone love you let alone like you. And in the long run, you should not be seeking the approval of men, although it?s a nice thing to have. All that matters is that you not just know but fully grasp that God loves you. 2. You should never buy a used […]

How we dress, do our hair or wear accessories actually says a lot about us without saying anything at all. It can in many ways tell you about personalities and the core make up of people. Now I realize this isn?t always the case and it can come across as judgemental, but I can assure […]

?Hey mom! Check out this roly-poly!? the almost ten-year-old girl said with excitement. I glanced quickly down at her dirty little hands and saw the tiny grey bug cruising along her pink skin. She has been ever so busy the last few days with building a roly-poly habitat in a large bucket. She has all […]

When I was about 14 years old, magazines from Victoria Secret would flood our home weekly. Or at least it seemed weekly. Before I was even 14, I had self-esteem body issues. I began dating the man who is now my husband at that age. I was fairly mature for a 14-year-old and desired to […]

My imagination is creating new chapters of stories, little fine details of peoples faces, adding emotions to the characters and sometimes […]

No matter what stage of life season or predicament we are in, we should always see ourselves on a mission field. If you have ever raised kids, you might remember the long days of character building, forgiveness, and exhaustion from managing the immaturity of growing humans. You may have thought I was talking about just […]

I came to my desk to write and stopped to stare a moment out the bedroom window this afternoon. I was sipping on a little jar of kombucha. The chimes clanged and clonged with the wind knocking them together. We are probably going to get an early spring and the juniper tree that offers it […]

In today’s society, I don’t think its easy to keep and develop good friendships. We are too busy, too swamped, to make it worse, we communicate so often over cold, impersonal mediums such as texting! If you’re communicating with a friend of text message, things can be misread, or misstated and often ignored altogether. It’s easy for them to pretend they never saw your message.

Everywhere, ?we see the word brave. What is it, what does it mean? Everyone is sure they want to be it, the word is pure adrenaline and highlighted with a lovely shade of the coolness factor. We all want it?because when we are brave, we allow the change in ourselves that is most certainly not […]

If you think this is a post telling you all about who I voted for and why?you would be mistaken. I wouldn’t share that with you, no matter who I voted for. Because, really, why would I want to know that about you? And, Why do you need to know that about me? So, you […]

Crying was for the weak and by golly, I wanted to be accepted, so I repressed my tears, even in my own privacy, I was ashamed to cry.

When I was a teenager, I participated in the sports cross country and track. I still do some running events once or twice a year with the husband as he really enjoys the sport. I get what I call the “back to the barn” syndrome. That is what happens when you have taken your horse […]

I wish I wouldn’t have prayed so much. ~At the end of their life, said no one ever. ~ I wish I wouldn’t have stopped and listened to the little person that needed to talk, I wish I had not hugged them, I wish I would have passed on by and ignored them. ~At the […]

I like puzzles. I mean the board puzzles not puzzling situations that I have no control over. The great thing about a board puzzle is that you have control over making the bigger picture come to life and then you can see it finished after sometimes many hours of long staring and trying to fit […]

Today, I feel happy. I feel Love. I feel Hope. And I feel that if life gets any better I might have died and gone to heaven. Nothing special has happened. I didn’t win the lottery, (my chances at winning would improve, if I actually played it) and the kids are erupting in […]
