I have had the rich experience of studying the life of Abraham as we have dug through Genesis in Bible Study Fellowship this year. This week we read Genesis 25 and with the turn of a page of our Bibles, Abraham’s long life is over. Abraham’s 175 years yielded what many of us desire our […]
The Morning Rush
It is another morning of rushing to get out the door. I purposely start this process 30-45 minutes ahead of time to cut down on the stress, and the yelling. There is something about having to ask twelve times for shoes and coats to be put on that turns me into a seriously “mean mommy”. […]
Blessed
I am in the midst of the nap time routine when I hear a familiar roar coming up the road. Any other time of year, I am less than eager for what our sweet mail lady, Mary leaves. However, December brings a new excitement for the one o’clock hour as I run to the box […]
Trust
This week my boy turned five. Why does “5” seem like such a big year. Is it just the start of school? Is it because of the shift in independence that I hear about? Perhaps it is the evolution from an animated-themed birthday party to all things football? I am certain it has something to […]
Recap of 31 Days
I mentioned listening in my final post of the month for 31 Days. In order to complete the challenge to write every day of October, it has required a whole lot of listening on my part. I had a rough outline of what my 31 Life Lessons looked like but there were plenty of days […]
Day 31: Before I ever got my diagnosis, I already had the cure.
As I walked through the uncertainty of my tomorrows, I realized that I had to start listening or I wasn’t going to make it. If the cancer didn’t get me, the anxiety just might. When I started learning to listen, the healing happened. There was no audible voice, but He spoke to me through my […]
Day 30: In the words of my dear friend, “He always shows His Glory”.
I mentioned my community on Day 1, and today I want to share a little more of that community with you through the writing of one of my closest friends, Jen. She is wise. She is compassionate. She is faithful. Just what I needed for a journey through cancer. She blogs here and I promise […]
Day 29: I am blessed with a heritage of faith.
On the heels of yesterday’s post, I was feeling the need to write this one…My 31 Days would never be complete without mentioning two of the key players in my journey through cancer, my mom and dad. The truth is I cannot imagine how I ever would have made it through the process without them. […]
Day 28: Every year counts.
When I first read Genesis 5 in preparation for last week’s BSF lesson, I was hardly enthused. At first it seems like a long list of names that are hard to pronounce followed by the hundreds of years they each lived. Who wants to live that long and what does this have to do with me anyway? […]
Day 27: I was in need of rescue from the “hollow motions”.
I think I have always been someone that tries to enjoy life, have even celebrated it by acting silly at times. But there was a time period in my life when I seemed to have gotten a little stuck. It probably started sometime around when our son, Kekoa was a toddler. Being a mom is […]
