Best Drawing Ever!

Can you imagine how God would feel he felt the childlike love and posture from us embodied in this drawing…a heart that says I love you. You are my best friend forever.

Good Morning!

What if God is like me on the other side of the bed, hearing you say good morning to your spouse, your kids, your mom, whomever — and is waiting for the opportunity for you to engage with Him so that he can “scoop you up.”

Happy Valentine’s Day

Regardless of which loves you have at this very moment, Happy Valentine’s Day to you. There is love in your life worth celebrating and I hope you will celebrate them all.

While it is yet night….

When we make self-care first, we can be more present moms, supportive spouses, and less easily annoyed colleagues.

Game by Game

As we start this week, let’s focus on just what’s before us. Let’s plan to win this game, this week.

Date Night

During the pandemic our date night life took a backseat in 2020 and this year, whether inside or socially distanced outside, we WILL maintain our date time together in 2021. So what are you and your love doing to keep the fun this year?

Obsessive Perfection Disorder

OPD – Obsessive Perfection Disorder. I definitely have it. I self-diagnosed myself yesterday. The house was so quiet. The kids were outside playing. My husband was running errands and I was left with the beautiful sound of my own thoughts. (I rather enjoy that sound from time to time.) While I had this precious time,

Hoarding

Like the grandma who didn’t want to see the new home prepared for her, we don’t want to see the vision of the new life God has for us.  God has paid a price for us – far beyond movers, trucks, and labor.  Will we simply accept his help move into his provision for a better life or will we cling to our mess?

The Beauty of Slow Motion

I pray that in the midst of these crazy circumstances and challenges of epic proportions, that you too have found beauty in some of these ashes, joy at the edge of any mourning experienced and blessings tucked in the creases of your burdens. Cheers to all God has for you in 2021! Happy New Year!

Defense

Every day, Satan, our opponent is on the court with us. From the moment we step out of bed, he is right there trying to knock us off our game, trying make a steal, or foul us out. How can we play the best defense against such an experienced opponent? We start each day on the attack. We defend our goals, our plans, our life. We go against Satan before he has a chance to make his first play.
