Last Sunday before entering Holy Week, I felt lead to take a break from our regular curriculum with the boys homeschool, and focus on the Lord. When George was entering Kindergarten, I had enrolled him in public school, and a few weeks leading up to the first day, I had a nudge that I wasContinue reading “Seeds”

Overwhelmed
There is something in the air, do you feel it? Year after year, this week hits me with wonder, awe, and an utter and humble reality of my sin. This is a time when pressing in doesn’t feel like an obligation, but a response to who God really is. This week we celebrate and reflect onContinue reading “Overwhelmed”
Rejection
It was another beautiful weekend filled with praying, worshipping, proclaiming the good news of Jesus and seeing the wonder-working power of His name move in the lives of His daughters. The women’s retreat was full of tears, laughter, breakthroughs, and healing. Driving home, I reminisced on all that God had done; rejoicing in praise. IContinue reading “Rejection”
Another Year Older
This week I look at my growing boys and celebrate another year older for them both. Is it truly celebration, or a bittersweet awareness that in eight years George will be 18 and off on a new adventure as an adult, with Oliver not too far behind? I think about a commercial I saw aContinue reading “Another Year Older”
Which Will Guard Your Hearts and Minds
I had an unsettling dream a few nights ago. I have faux Olive branches on my entryway table and in my dream, the leaves of my Olive branches were slowly turning to embers and soon the entire branch was surrounded by a slow flame that eventually burned all branches. I am not a dream interpreterContinue reading “Which Will Guard Your Hearts and Minds”
What Was That?
During a retreat as we were worshipping, the presence of the Lord was evident and beautiful. During that time, I had given a prophetic word to a young lady that resulted in tears and awe of how great and amazing our God truly is. Later that afternoon, I was sitting alone gathering my thoughts andContinue reading “What Was That?”
Thank You and Praise
As we open our eyes in the early hours of the morning, staying in bed can somedays seem like a better option. As we think about the chaos that has encompassed our world in the last few days and years, we can feel not only overwhelmed, but find fear and uneasiness more familiar. We canContinue reading “Thank You and Praise”
Hope Deferred, But Not Gone
A week ago, I was so looking forward to this Monday’s post. I could not wait to tell all my readers that this was the day I would be flying to Honduras to minister in schools, to worship, speak, and fulfill a prophetic word given to me in January of 2020. I was so excitedContinue reading “Hope Deferred, But Not Gone”
Fishers of Men
I have been familiar with this man at sea since I was a little girl. He hung on our living room wall for years and just recently, my son George asked his Jaja if he could have it. Now, the familiar man at sea hangs on our wall. While teaching the boys homeschool, I foundContinue reading “Fishers of Men”
Generous Wisdom
This Sunday our Pastor had a great message on asking questions and reminded us of the importance of asking for wisdom. He read James 1:5, “If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him.” Later that day I hadContinue reading “Generous Wisdom”
