For from His fullness we have all received grace upon grace. John 1:16 I prayed to the Lord, and he answered me. He freed me from all my fears. Those who look to him for help will be radiant with joy; no shadow of shame will darken their faces. Ps. 34:4-5 Like anyone, I have struggled with unbelief.

Reluctant Obedience, Undeserving Grace

The Hardest Calling
I have struggled with surrender my entire life. The mere thought of “giving up” in a hard-fought battle angers me … and it only ignites a deeper fire, resulting in greater effort to CONTINUE fighting. Even when there is no fight left in me. A couple years ago, I wrote a blog about my Fight

Let Your Heart Be Light …
I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but have the light of life. Isn’t it fun to see all the lights this time of year? There’s something about those twinkling cuties that make my heart happy. Maybe it’s the way little bulbs shine so bright against the

I Need A Reason
Have I ever told y’all about my housekeeper, Esther? I don’t think I have. Through a random inquiry I submitted on Thumbtack late last year, I was led to this girl’s profile. She had many good reviews and I was desperate for help. As you all know, my husband owns a business. Maybe you didn’t

Me Before You
Last night, I was pretty beaten down. The day was packed with unending struggle. It began with writing a $2,000 check to fix our entire pool system and ended with some tears on a couch, processing all of the struggles of just one day … but really, this whole year. Earlier, as I was trying

A Good, Good Father
When I think about the Lord, I always picture Him as my father. He holds so many roles in scripture, but a loving father is one of them. I think this in in large part due to the excellent earthly dad he gave to me long ago. This life has been so painful lately, and

Hey y’all …
How’s everyone doin’? I know, I know … it’s been 2 weeks. But these past 2 weeks have been pretty rough for us & some very dear friends. First of all, let me just say … I’m back at WORK. I know, I KNOW …. I wasn’t sure I was gonna do it either. And
