The title of this post reflects many times in my life where I felt spiritually far away from God, like God was nowhere around…but countless times in my life when I have found myself in this place I have had to face the “UGLY TRUTH.” God did not leave me, he did not go anywhereContinueContinue reading “The Ugly Truth!”

I got it from my “momma”
So my 4-year-old, Violet, loves to sing loudly in her room. This is what we caught her singing from her room as a rap and she even made up motions. Song: I got it from my momma I got it from my momma I got it from my momma I’m praising the Lord (as sheContinueContinue reading “I got it from my “momma””
My friends say my CROSS is an X
On my way home tonight my very intelligent 4-year-old shared this story with me. This was our conversation about Jesus. Violet: Mom, my friends say my cross is an x. Me: what do you tell them when they say that? Violet: I tell them that it’s a cross. Me: who died on the cross Violet?ContinueContinue reading “My friends say my CROSS is an X”
Last Minute Revelations
I have found over the years of serving Jesus, the church, and the youth group that sometimes things happen at the last-minute. Sometimes it’s things I can’t help and its hard to know what the next step will be when you have been dumped on, surprised or shook up at the last minute. That’s whereContinueContinue reading “Last Minute Revelations”

This weekend me and Matt (my husband), went to dinner. Matt excused himself to the restroom. I waited on him for a good while, and I kinda got a little worried for him. When he finally came back to sit down, his face was red and he began to tell the story of what hadContinueContinue reading “That White Dress!”

This kind of gift that only God can give bring such joy to my heart. I know that God is planning andContinueContinue reading “Glory in Suffering”
Looking back into 2013
Each week as I prepare to preach to young people, I spend time seeking God’s will and plan for that service. I want to take you through each month of 2013 of some the great spiritual implications that God gracefully gave me as I was used for His Kingdom! All Glory goes to the KingContinueContinue reading “Looking back into 2013”
Home Alone
Just this past Thanksgiving I experienced something I had never felt before around a Thanksgiving table. We went to my in-laws for Thanksgiving and I’m expecting the same thing we do every year. The craziness of the kitchen being packed with the grandkids, parents and grandparents surrounding the table saying what they are thankful forContinueContinue reading “Home Alone”
Dumping God?
I know this title seems a little rude and off my rocker a little bit, but in true sense as I read my word yesterday in the Book of Zephaniah I saw how so many of us have dumped God altogether. In the book of Zephaniah you will find an author who is predicting theContinueContinue reading “Dumping God?”
