I can’t believe it’s been a year. More than a year. I have to remember the tingling in my mind. The needles in my brain. Stabbing. Stabbing. Giving me no peace. No rest. No time to be. There was a hand gripping my heart. A very large hand, and I woke up in the middle… Continue reading Overcoming Anxiety (Poem)

After The Storm
There is a quiet these days. Each morning I wake up and its not like the mornings of years past but its not like the mornings of months past either. Instead of feeling overwhelmed with the Father’s love, or being tormented with fear (which has been the case), I feel–quiet. I feel stillness. I feel… Continue reading After The Storm
Getting Older
People have been asking me what I’m planning for the big 3-4. I honestly have no plans. My emotions have been up and down (ok, mostly down) about the upcoming event and I don’t know how I will feel when it gets here. Will I have a series of bursts of energy and strength… Continue reading Getting Older

Giant Slayer
I remember at the beginning of this very difficult season Holy Spirit said “fight!” and I responded “I don’t want to”.

The Job Season
If there is one character in the Bible I never wanted to relate to it is Job. I mean seriously, that man went through everything under the sun! He lost it all and then had the nerve to worship right after he did! Talk about FAITHFUL. I have said I wanted my life partner to… Continue reading The Job Season
When Joy Looks Different
It’s interesting how this spiritual journey demonstrates many contradictions. Those who lose their life will gain it. Those who come in last will be first. And those who are going through really hard things should count it all joy… I remember when this scripture first came alive to me. I had my first heartbreak and… Continue reading When Joy Looks Different
Can I Be Casual?
Many years ago I was pretty much desperate to be in a committed relationship. I hate to use that word but it’s pretty accurate. I was needy and codependent and did not know my identity. When you’re in a state like that you’re liable to accept anything. And so I did. Thankfully God got a… Continue reading Can I Be Casual?
Life Without Fear
It’s funny how long you can go living in a state that is less than ideal. Your life has been that way for so long you don’t know any better. It is your normal, even when it is abnormal. Who are you if that thing changes? What will your life look like in this new… Continue reading Life Without Fear
