As the school year ends, many teachers will take their students through a review of what they’ve learned during the past year. Many children don’t even realize how just much their teachers have prepared them for the next school year and for the years to come. My daughter will be in high school in the…
I tried to write this post twice. I had half of both posts written, and both times my computer shut down and I lost what I had written. Key phrase, I had written. I wrote Heather saying that I wasn’t going to get this post submitted when I was hoping. It was writing that email…
My daughter has a concussion. She was helping pick up balls at her sister’s softball practice on Monday when her head and a bat accidentally collided. It could have been worse, but it wasn’t. However, she does have several restrictions on what she can and can’t do during the healing process. A process that could…
Just like anyone, I’ve had my share of bad days. I’ve also had my share of days that seemed bad in the moment but in hindsight, they only felt bad in the moment. When things don’t go as planned and my day seems to be getting further and further away from ideal, I’ve noticed that…
We guard a lot of things in our lives. We guard things of value and that are important to us. We guard our children, our homes, our finances, even our lives. But what about our prayer life? Have you thought about how you guard that? Does it even need guarding? Many things come against our…
I am writing this from an airplane and for those who know me they know that I am terrified of flying. I actually used to enjoy flying, but something happened a couple years back and I experienced a panic attack on a plane as soon as we pulled out from the gate. The pilot had…
Let’s talk about the proverbial “F” word of the Bible: Forgive. Go ahead, say it; try not to choke. Does the very thought light a red-hot flame of self-defense? Christians celebrate forgiveness as the greatest gift our Savior died to give us, yet we all struggle to forgive each other. I believe that all of…
I drew a heart in the sand. Someone came alongside me and pointed to the outline. “A turtle,” he exclaimed. He called his friend over. The woman looked at the stick drawing, the ocean foam lapping closer to the edges. “No, it’s a dog.” More people gathered … pointing and debating. Despite my protestations, few…
I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength… all things except kill a rattlesnake. However, if I’m honest, I probably could have killed that snake if I had really needed to. Or if I would have stopped long enough to pray about it and look to God for strength. But I didn’t….
I’m pretty sure you are all liars. Maybe you don’t even realize you are doing it. But every time you curate your life to look more appealing – whether it be with beauty products, Instagram filters or a simple “I’m fine” – you are lying to me. Don’t get me wrong. I’m a liar too….
Shortly after we got married my husband decided that he wanted a baby. I was not ready for a baby. He basically begged me for one, but only 6 months into marriage, I just wanted to enjoy marriage for a while before having children. This was right around Christmas time, and since I wouldn’t give…
The Bible talks about us inheriting a faith from Abraham. That we are of his “lineage”, not by blood, but because of faith. Romans 4:13 says, “For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.”…
