Jesus – From Fear to Fun!
On Sunday I was chatting with my mom, and she shared how she was shaking after singing for church. I asked why and she said it was because it was just her singing by herself. I told her I didn’t think I could do that! I recently have joined the worship team for my church…
Decision Making Madness
It has never been easy for me to make a decision. Once I do decide, I feel worried that the option I chose is not the right one. I will take way too long trying to decide what to eat at restaurants that have long menus! Recently, an opportunity came my way to start a…
Growing “Pains”
For a few years I’ve gone back and forth about re-piercing my tragus, the cartilage in my ears that I got pierced when I was 20 and having a blast in college. Inspired by my swimming teammate, who had gotten her nose pierced for her 40th birthday, and a tattoo for her 50th birthday, I…
Say it now!
Why do we wait until the end to let people know how we really feel? Why do we wait until they are in pain, there is some doom circumstance, or ultimatum at hand? Sometimes it is the hardest to tell the people we love how we really feel, or what it is really going on.…
Faithful Father
When it comes to love, meaning romance and relationships, I have always been a dreamer. I have also always been very shy. But God did give me a gift of beauty so I have had quite a few encounters with the opposite sex over my lifetime. My sister loves to remind me that she had…
Miracle Maker!

Drama in Disobedience
Yesterday I was laying on the couch watching a movie and I started to get this itch. I’ve gotten it quite a few times over the past few years. It’s this itch that comes and goes, to find the perfect Bible. I’ve gone to bookstores time and time again, and come home empty handed. I’ve…
Valentine’s Day Reality Check
I was watching a TV show yesterday and the woman on the show was mourning her fiancé who had just died. She went to a restaurant and watched longingly at a couple as they dined together holding hands smiling at each other and conversing. As I watched that I thought in my head “yeah right!”.…
What a Good God!
On Tuesday I started listening to a podcast my sister sent to me called “Slowing Down”. The speaker was making good points from the beginning and I had my notebook out with my pen ready to write down what she was saying. But I realized I was sitting there with frustration thinking about how I…
Picture Perfect
Social media has always been a little bit frustrating to me because most of the time what you end up showing, or seeing, is a finished picture. And it usually looks pretty good! What you don’t get is the story behind that, what it took to get to that picture. So I want to shed…
