I want to tell you about Hank the Manx. Seven years ago, we had just lost another cat. You have to understand that cats simply don’t last around our home. We live in a fairly rural area, and the coyotes tend to win the war against our feline friends, no matter how hard we try […]
Kind words are like honey— sweet to the soul and healthy for the body. Proverbs 16:24 Roy and I have been married for 6 1/2 years now. Roy is one of the kindest men I know. I recently had a co-worker tell me he was like a big kid–and truthfully, she doesn’t know the half of […]
This week, I’m excited to have my daughter write a guest post for me! She’s now a sophomore in college, and an absolute delight! This summer, she is going to Cambodia and Thailand on a two month mission trip. It would bless her to have you join her in prayer! You can also pray for […]
Last week, I spent my morning commute praying. As you may remember, my word for 2024 is miracles, specifically miracles of restoration miracles of purpose. I have several people in my life for whom I am praying for miracles of restoration–restoration of their relationship with God, restoration of their marriages, restoration other relationships.

“You don’t have enough faith,” Jesus told them. “I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it would move. Nothing would be impossible.” Matthew 17:20 How much faith do we need to see miracles in […]
Listen to my voice in the morning, Lord. Each morning I bring my requests to you and wait expectantly. Psalm 5:3 Miracles. Miracles of restoration. Miracles of purpose. That’s what has been on my mind for the last two months. I believe wholeheartedly God has laid these words on my heart for 2024. My mind […]
Jesus. So often, I simply find myself crying out the name of Jesus. There are so many times I simply can’t find the words, but I know the name of Jesus has power. It has authority. It has peace. It is God with us. These last few months, I’ve been presented with some difficult situations […]
Do a mighty work in me, Lord, so you can do a mighty work through me. I will never forget falling to my knees and praying that very prayer. I’ll be honest. My pride prevented me from seeing how much work God needed to do in me before He could work through me. I was at the […]
My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life. John 10:10 This week, I was listening to a sermon on the anointing of God. The preacher, Dick Foth, mentioned he used to have a radio show in which he used the tagline, “It’s time to wake up and live!” That simple phrase completely […]
I’ve written over the past few weeks about peace. The Peace Index. His Perfect Peace. My peace being robbed from me. It’s been a very introspective period of my life as I’ve begun to look at who I am, who I want to be, where I am succeeding and where I am failing. I’ve been […]
