Grace like rain, poured out and overflowing into our lives.  There’s so much, isn’t there?  So much available and given, spilling out on us all.   Sunday morning I had the privilege of speaking with two ladies who are doing the study together, sharing how they’d sat for close to four hours one afternoon, talking about this…

As I sit down to write, so many different ideas have come to mind, stories to tell, paths to take.  But there is this one verse that keeps rolling over and over in me, a verse so personal that speaks to His very presence in our lives.  Maybe it’s just what you need.  Maybe this week…

  Any of you have a friend who can just see through it all? Several months back I found myself sitting across from one of my mentors.  It had been a difficult season and I was wrapped up in concern.  I was burdened by the weight of life, feeling frustrated that I just couldn’t get a grip.  I…

A few months ago we were in the middle of a “significant” conversation, some might say it was intense or heated, but either way I was definitely right.  We were going back and forth on how…

Happy Mother’s Day! Celebrating with YOU today, for all your love, your sacrifice, and your incredible kindness. For all the times you’ve laughed and cheered and encouraged. For those moments you’ve cried, and had nowhere to go but to your knees. For the countless prayers offered, for the waiting and wondering. For the times you were brave, and courageous and stepped…

I have a friend who laughs easily. I just adore her.  She’s a friend who will laugh at our stories, who will giggle at the funny things of life, and just find joy. I LOVE being around people like that, don’t you?  You can probably think of those in your life who laugh easily and just bring a sense…

We got a puppy. Last month we decided to find a sweet puppy because we are just dog people.  Our first baby, Dakota, we’d had for 13 years and lost him on New Year’s Day.  So very soon afterwards we began the search and found this little angel. Yep, she’s adorable. But even as I type…
