More Than A Conqueror

This weekend has been full as they normally are.  I met with my brothers who I share tender memories with of hitting the streets with the gospel when we were young and full of zeal.  The only female surrounded by guys, I was just as bold and fearless.  Those were fond days with night long fellowship,… Continue reading More Than A Conqueror

Living Without The Reward

This year has been full of blessings.  A great roommate (shout out to Lianna), our cute little cat Benny and a host of social activities with lovely people who feel more like family then friends.  I admit I am spoiled with favor from the body of Christ.  So much of my journey has been walking… Continue reading Living Without The Reward

The Reward

Thursday morning while driving to work I thought about the many times I have laid down my life in the area of relationships.  The many times I said “no” because Christ said “no”.  I had a speaking engagement that night where I would share my story about how I was so badly hurt by a… Continue reading The Reward

The 50-Year-Old Whole Single

She walked down the aisle with tears glistening and made eye contact with so many of her guests, mouthing the words “thank you”. It was the first wedding I had been to where the bride did such a thing. Demonstrating so much humility and gratefulness with each step forward for the people standing in the… Continue reading The 50-Year-Old Whole Single

A Sweet Offering

Today I sent a text to my friend telling her I was struggling.  I revealed my soul in that text.  I shared my inner thoughts in that text.  And she did not take it lightly.  She understood.  And she proceeded to encourage me.  I told her about the pain of this season.  That, as much… Continue reading A Sweet Offering
