At this point in life, these two numbers only have the significance of numbering an amount of time and days that have passed by in history. My history–but God’s story. I love to think about the verses that tell me my days were numbered. Since his days are determined, and the number of his months… Read More
I Don’t Know . . . Did you know that those three words have never been spoken by God? Let’s think back on some biblical history for just a moment. Think back to Adam and Eve when they were in paradise and in constant fellowship with God. On the day that Satan enticed Eve to… Read More
Over the last few months, I’ve spoken the words, “I can’t believe . . . ” in reference to all of the decisions, Dr. visits, and life changes we have been through with mom and dad. For instance, “I can’t believe Mom has another doctor visit or I can’t believe we are putting their house… Read More
Last week our family found ourselves in a whole new arena of life. We always knew this week would someday arrive, but facing it head-on and thinking and preparing for it eventually are on two very far flung spectrums.

Our guest bloggers are family–kind of. Not the blood type, but the kind that you do life with—from celebrations to painful circumstances. We laugh together, cry together, and pray together. I’ve talked about my friend, Sam, in the past. We met in college and have been friends ever since. We were pregnant with babies a… Read More
I sure hope this months emphasis on Fostering/Adopting is giving your heart a pause. I hope you take time out of your busy, hectic, stressful holiday season and stop. Take a rest and think about the social orphans and widows who are lonely and wishing they had “family” to love on them in this season.… Read More
Our guest blogger and I have been friends for a while. We met in St. Marys at church, but we did life together as friends outside of church.
