about

I am a Christian wife and mother of 2. I am the mother of two adult children. My husband is a full time Pastor. I also work full time outside of the home. Ecclesiastes 3:1 “To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:” And for this season of our lives, I have to work. A couple of years ago I asked God for a job using me to serve others and that is exactly what He did. Not in the way I expected, but I am serving! This blog is a way for me to share devotions, whatever the Lord lays on my heart. It is an avenue for me fulfill something I feel the Lord leading me in, which is writing. I am currently working on a book as well!

  • Salt, Love and Green Beans

    Some of you know that I usually do a lot of canning this time of year. I haven’t been able to do as much lately because of my finger infection and surgery. But years ago, one of the first things I learned to can was green beans. I was so proud of myself for learning…

  • Abide: Staying Rooted in the Vine

    When I first accepted Christ I was a teenager. I was all in for Jesus! As a teenager, I hadn’t experienced a lot of life just yet. I felt fully surrendered to God. But as I lived more life, I was a little less surrendered…. I was still in church and doing all of the…

  • Trust Him When You Cannot Trace Him

    I’ll be honest, this one is a little harder for me to write. I usually try to keep things light hearted and funny. And I really try not to complain too much. But I’m struggling this week. And maybe some of you can relate to what I’m feeling and maybe that’s why I’m feeling led…

  • The Smallest Member

    For a few weeks now I’ve been dealing with a minor health issue. My pointer finger on my right hand has somehow gotten infected and the infection has gotten worse to the point that it is now in the bone, osteomyelitis. I am going today to have an MRI and I am being referred to…

  • Hit in the Head by Pride (Literally!)

    When I was in elementary school, I think maybe around 4th grade I took a softball to school one day. I’ve never been particularly athletic. Let’s face it, I’m not at all athletic! Anyways, I brought this softball to school this day for P.E. time. We had a game of softball. And I didn’t do…

  • Dear Mama, God Sees You

    This Sunday is Mother’s Day. (Hopefully this is not news to you LOL – If it is, you still have time to prepare!) Naturally, motherhood has been on my mind this week. Earlier this week I posted in a mom group on Facebook. But, there is more to be said about the subject! Motherhood is…

  • How is your Faith?

    What’s on my heart this morning is FAITH! That seems like a general term but I’m talking about serious faith. Faith that God is going to take care of you. Faith that God has things under control. Faith that whatever situation you are in, even when all hope seems lost, that God is going to…

  • A little leaven

    You want to know what I’ve been doing lately? Well I’m going to tell you! LOL Because I love to talk about it. If you don’t know me, when I get started on something new, I kind of tend to obsess about it a little bit. So my family is probably sick of hearing me…

  • Don’t Stop Praying!

    Last week we laid to rest my first cousin, Mike. He was the first of our first cousins to pass away. He and I weren’t really close but it is still a loss that you feel. The most heart breaking part is watching my precious Aunt at 84 years old saying goodbye to one of…

  • Who can we trust?

    Now that I have processed the shock from the weekend. I’ve got some things that have been on my heart all week. Not only did we get the shock of an assassination attempt Saturday night, but I also got a shocking call about a death of a family member on Sunday morning. The whole world…
