As we sit here in-flight to Canada, the Holy Spirit is speaking to me on an unpopular subject, the necessity of perseverance. We by nature resist it. We want life pretty much quick and easy. Yet, He tells us that in order to become mature and ready for our calling there is testing. Not only…
SOUL FOOD
Don’t you love a good breakfast? It’s been far too long since I’ve enjoyed bacon, eggs + hash browns in the am. My quick and easy go-to is Ezekiel bread toast. Toast topped with a variety of toppings and a good cup o’ joe. But really the most important meal of the day is soul…
LEARNING TO CONNECT
I miss the days growing up when genuine connection was easy and familiar. There were no smart phones or social media. People met up for coffee to catch up, laugh together and eye contact was comfortable. Now sadly, people are glued to their phones and other technology has taken the place of real human connection….
UNWAVERING HOPE
All God’s promises are so so good. Every one of them true and constant. We live in a world that is constantly changing yet there is one hope that we can count on time and time again. The unwavering hope we have in Christ never disappoints and never changes. No other person or thing can…
FREEDOM RINGS
Happy 4th! I am such a patriotic, All American girl, proud and always so grateful to live in this beautiful country. I’ve traveled the world and even with its flaws, there is no greater place.

We all have been there, where someone says something untrue or does something unjust. Our immediate response is to get emotionally wound and defend ourselves. I know for me I have always been quick to defend and fight for myself when someone had it “all wrong.” A few years ago when God started to do…
ALL OUR HEART
We are always being lured by something in our lives. Even good blessings can seem to fill voids that God is meant to fill. You see, we were created to have that God-shaped void that only He can fill. We are meant to chase Jesus. As Mick Jagger sings, “Can’t get no satisfaction.” This is…
NO MAN CAN SHUT
We are taught growing up, that we should go to college, get a good education and chase the American dream. Everyone wants to be comfortable and secure. Nice house, nice car and with money in the bank and so on. As an entrepreneur and owner of two businesses, I can get caught up focused on…
GREATEST IN THE KINGDOM
Jesus disciples asked Him, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven” What He said next would take many by surprise. He called forth a little child. Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever takes the humble position of…
GET UNSTUCK
The fact is that we as humans are so different than God. I for one, live in a constant state of gratitude that He is perfect in all of His ways. Where would we be if we had a God-like us One of the most amazing ways that God is not like us, is that…
