“Someone deliberately touched me, for I felt healing power go out from me.” Luke 8:46

Today is my son, Andrew’s 9th Birthday. I love Andrew immensely. Andrew is significantly younger than his siblings. I was an older Mom when I had him.

Our entire family was going through the trial of our life when I discovered I was pregnant with my little man. We were enduring the lawsuit from hell that lasted six years with no respite in sight with a man who I believe God used to teach me a lot

New Hope for a New Day. . .

Samuel was a sleeping boy. Yet, the Lord called to him by name. You were sleeping. You maybe weren’t lying down or having your eyes closed, but you were asleep, Slumber of Soul.

At the end of the day when the sun decides to go away and cradle itself on the horizon
The moon arises and this is of no surprise, yet it takes the breath away.

God is like both the sun & the moon—He isn’t going anywhere.
He is committed to you through thick &

Have you ever browsed a brochure that takes your through verbal illustrations complete with dramatic and exotic photos that fill your mind with expectations for the vacation that will fill the void and block out life’s noise?

Have you ever heard Disney’s slogan, “The Happiest Place on Earth”.

Americans are fascinated with pleasure. The idea of rest and ease seems to be what we think we need to manage and cope the stress of life. We plan and save and take distant vacations only to discover the price tag didn’t meet the

There are times when you feel and know that nothing you can do will make a difference—

This is when it’s important to know that Christ CAN make the difference. And sometimes I think He likes it like that. The bigger question is are you truly satisfied in Him? IS God your Source? We say it, we sing it, we declare it, but how am I living it?

For whatever the reason the Lord has called my family to live by extreme faith obedience. I actually finished a book a

Look Up.

Because of you I can face tomorrow…

What am I but a vapor in your Presence?

I am what amounts to nothing on the radar of eternity, in comparison to your extreme Sovereignty.

Who am I that you should love me?

Who am I that you should notice me and count me among the gems in your Garden?

What do we do when every dream of our soul goes unfulfilled?

Where do we turn when we appear to be forsaken?

We can have hope.

We can abide in Hope.

We can hold on even when we’re not feeling

Going through the Fire right now? Wondering why your Christmas is not feeling Merry or Bright? Relating to the song Silent Night on an entirely new level?

I understand. But even when God is silent, He is there.

Believe me if there is anything I know it’s that it’s the pain where growth happens. The fire is our friend. I don’t like the fire. I know you don’t either. But we must endure the fire to get to the flood.

God flood your heart with Goodness tonight.
I pray for your comfort…

When I was a young girl I truly enjoyed drawing. I could spend hours with pencils and pens creating on my sketch pad. By the eighth grade I thought I’d like to be a Graphic Designer. In High School my Mom and I would joke about me getting a job working for Hallmark one day.

I never became a Designer in that sense, but even at a young age the presence of God’s direction on my life was evident. He was there guiding my interests. I think if I worked for

Even through the toughest storms God’s got you. If you are in a storm today, He is right there in the thick of it with you, guiding you, paving the way. I actually think most people find this of comfort. Even people who never speak of God or seem to have spiritual interest seem to cry out for him in their moments of desperation. Do you know what, He takes the cry! He is just like a Father who cares for and protects His children.
