Sometimes we might see or hear something that sounds or looks outside of our “normal”. Maybe someone has an idea or a view that is different from what we think or what we have been taught. But you know what? That doesn’t always mean that it is wrong. Sometimes we are just too stubborn to… Continue reading Is It From God?

Priceless Poem
What’s worth more than rubies, diamonds or gold,And is worth just the same whether brand new or old?The value of which man cannot control,Though daily he tries and makes it his goal.Some, men try to elevate, stand on a pole,And others, they want to stomp down in a hole.But it’s actual cost, so we’ve been… Continue reading Priceless Poem
Don’t Talk About It
I don’t know about you, but at our house, we don’t talk about Bruno. We might sing about him, but we don’t talk about him. In case you didn’t know, Bruno is a character in the Disney movie Encanto. And there is a whole song about how “we don’t talk about Bruno”. So of course,… Continue reading Don’t Talk About It
The Power of Touch

But so much more often, they are little things that God has blessed us with. Maybe even things we ourselves overlook because they come so naturally, or because it just feels right.… Continue reading Embracing Our Gifts
Authentic Friendships

Simplifying a lot of our job processes. There is also a lot of bad that goes along with it.… Continue reading Authentic Friendships
Living as a Broken Woman
The Samaritan woman at the well. Rahab the prostitute. Mary Magdalene. What do they have in common? They were broken women who were key players in the spread of the Gospel. Let’s look at Rahab. She was a known prostitute in the city of Jericho. Despite her less than favorable profession, she had heard about… Continue reading Living as a Broken Woman
Self-Worth and Dignity
Godly Femininity is Power Under Control. Esther is a beautiful story that exemplifies this concept. Esther was a young beautiful Jewish girl. She was chosen as one of many to be prepared to go before King Xerxes as a candidate to be the new queen. From the very beginning, Esther impressed those who were in… Continue reading Self-Worth and Dignity
