Do You Believe?

As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed Him, shouting, “Have mercy on us, Son of David!” When He entered the house, the blind men approached Him, and Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I can do this?” “Yes, Lord,” they answered Him. Then He touched their eyes, saying, “Let it […]

Breaking News!!

Good Monday morning! I just wanted to take a moment and share a couple of things with you, my wonderful friends! First, I want to say a huge THANK YOU! I am humbled and amazed that you have all chosen to join me on this journey. When I started this blog in a moment of […]

Trust me with your heart…

“Trust me with your heart.” The words pierced my heart one recent morning as I was getting ready for work. I have become very familiar with the gentle voice of my Savior whispering directly to my soul, but I found myself baffled at His command. “What do you mean, God?” I immediately began to pray […]

Consecration…

Joshua told the people, “Consecrate yourselves, because the Lord will do wonders among you tomorrow.” Joshua 3:5 At the beginning of 2014, I chose this verse as my verse for the year. Actually, I felt very strongly that God gave it to me. I believe that God has great things planned for this year, and […]

A Run to Remember 2014

It’s that time of year again. For fourteen years, Oklahoma City has come together to run and remember the lives lost in the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah building on April 19, 1995. Our city was forever changed, and we never want to forget those lost in the senseless act of terrorism. Last year, […]

Cancer…

“There’s an 85% chance that it’s malignant.” As the words rolled off my dad’s tongue, I felt as if I had been punched in the stomach. A small spot on his kidney is proving to be more than any of us ever imagined. The revelation came at the end of a particularly difficult week. I […]

Faith…

What is Faith? Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen; it gives us assurance about things we cannot see. Hebrews 11:1 As I look back over this journey, I am constantly amazed at how much my faith has grown through the trials and tribulations of this life. Recently, however, I […]

Single…And Hating It!

I am single…and hating it! I’m sure there are many singles who would say they hate it. They would tell about the loneliness. They might tell you how they long to have someone with whom to share their hopes and dreams. Or, maybe they would talk about the longing for a companion, someone with whom […]

In Over My Head

One thing has become abundantly clear to me in the last few weeks: I am totally and completely unequipped to raise teenage boys. I find myself questioning if God knew what He was doing when He allowed me to become a solo-parent to two boys. I don’t understand all these boy things, and I am […]

The Never-Ending Roller Coaster

Do you like roller coasters? My kids LOVE roller coasters! Three years ago when my daughter was only six, we went to Silver Dollar City in Branson, MO. We stood in line waiting for the Powder Keg. As we got closer, my daughter decided she didn’t want to ride. I coaxed her onto the ride, […]
