The American Christian’s Reckoning
NOTE: The premise of this post began stirring in me more than 5 years ago. I have written several variations in my head, on paper and in blog drafts. To write it all out would take days. It has been condensed here for easier reading. * When I had my "Jesus moment", I was a… Continue reading The American Christian’s Reckoning
Driving Obedience
My husband is a better driver than me. Some say women are better drivers than men, but in our home, hubby is definitely better than me. He has more patience than I do.

Maybe not laughed, but He was definitely doing something as He watched me hitting those branches. They were in my way and I was venting… Continue reading Branch Slapping
Coping Mechanisms
On June 8, I was at my lowest weight I had been at in a while. That was on purpose. In 2017, I wanted to get healthier and lose weight before my 50th birthday. Truth be told, my real goal was 135 lbs, but needless to say I didn't reach it. But, I was feeling… Continue reading Coping Mechanisms
