This morning, I woke up, and I said, “Lord! I really want to lose weight. I’m overweight and I have such a hard time with my eating habits. Will you please help me?” God: “What do you want?” Me: “You know. I want to be thinner. I want my clothes to look and feel better. …

We shall be changed.
Hello beloved, It’s been a minute. I hope this finds you all trusting. My initial thought is to say, I hope this finds you all “well.” But I’m not even sure what that means anymore. Does “well” mean…Not sick, happy. Does it mean all your dreams are coming true and everything’s “comin’ up roses”? …
Watching and Waiting
Hello Beloved, My, oh my, oh my! Yesterday was a doozy! I think I’m cruising along, resting in God, everything is cool and joyous! Then the Lord says, ok, let’s go deeper. And in one day, I feel like I’ve forgotten everything I’ve every known of our Lord. I doubt. I don’t look to…
The Bold and The Beautiful
Hello, beautiful family. One of my favorite musician/singer/songwriters is Rich Mullins. He wrote “Our God is an Awesome God” and so many other great songs about Jesus and our lives in God. Rich died in a car crash when he was still pretty young. After his death, a couple of books were written about…
Hurricanes and Tornado warnings
Hello beloved, As I type, the winds of a minor hurricane are whipping around our home, sheets of rain pelting the sides. You get used to these things when you live in Florida. At 6 am I got an automated call from Flagler County Emergency Services telling us that there was a tornado warning…

The House That Jesus Built
Hello beautiful family, I was talking to a dear friend this morning, and we started discussing something wonderful that I want to share with all of you. We spoke of the faithfulness of God, and how we can dwell in God’s rest. Then he told me something so wonderful regarding Joshua and Jesus: At…
Only Jesus

Let’s get naked.
Hello, dear sisters and brothers, dear to my heart. It’s been a minute. I have been thinking about this post for a while, and I haven’t quite gotten my lasso around it. So, I thought I would just start typing and see what happens. I was sitting on the beach this past Saturday morning, and…
That Where I am….
Hello glorious family! When I was young, I thought that when I died, I would go to a great mansion in the sky. It would be my very own mansion with lots of rooms, and probably an in-ground pool, and a giant backyard full of trees, and all the other amenities that I could want. …
