Late Night Musings
My late night reflection: So many of our children are in therapy here in 2025. Why? Where is the simplicity that comes with being a child. I pray our children today learn the simple joys of living. Not just craving for the more and more that never satisfies. I often wonder if us overachievers GenContinue reading “Late Night Musings”
She Emerged
This is HER. She emerged on the other side wiser, stronger, quieter, encased in grace and mercy. She is purposefully peaceful as she chooses her battles wisely.

Everything that meant anythingContinue reading “July -Then & Now”

The One who holds the nations in the palm of His hands- yet takes the time to invite us into relationship. Then there areContinue reading “Reset”
My Companion
Isn’t it funny how the meditations of our hearts and mind can hold us captive at the most unlikely moments? I find that my car is often my space – my creative room. I have started keeping this little blue book beside me as a constant companion. Sometimes I need to capture it all inContinue reading “My Companion”
Never Fall in Love Again
🎶’And it looks likeI’m never gonna fall in love againFall in love, I’m never gonna fall in loveI mean itFall in love again’🎶 For some reason I listened to the lyrics of this song for the first time a few days ago. Tom Jones did an amazing job selling this narrative. One that many haveContinue reading “Never Fall in Love Again”
