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!

  • Our Refuge

    “For you are my rock and my fortress; and for your name’s sake you lead me and guide me; you take me out of the net they have hidden for me, for you are my refuge.” Psalm 31:3-4 In this Psalm, David is holding onto his faith! Some believe this was during the time that…

  • Obedience, Peace and Provision

    Obedient children make a peaceful home, don’t they? When the kids do what you ask when you ask, it just makes everything go smoother. We don’t have to keep asking. We don’t have to get angry and start yelling. We don’t have to punish. But, life rarely works that way. Children are going to be…

  • Focus

    Would you agree that there is a lot of anger, hatred, evil and just plain ugliness going around the world today? If you watch the news or spend very much time on social media or talk to people in the community, you will hear of some kind of ugliness being spoken or done. Alot of…

  • God is so good

    Early last year, 2019 I was feeling the spirit of the Lord move in mighty ways. I even spoke with several christian friends who were feeling the same thing. During my alone time with the Lord I felt in my spirit that things were about to change. I didn’t know what kind of changes were…

  • You have no power over me

    Have you ever watched the move “The Labyrinth”?  It’s an 80’s movie about a teenage girl that, out of frustration, wishes her baby brother to be taken away by goblins. When her wish comes true, she immediately regrets her wish and has to go through a labyrinth to find her baby brother and save him…

  • Growing up…

    Our children are passing these “growing up” milestones left and right.  More and more I am reminded of how they are growing up and needing me less and less.  And needing God more and more! Our son moved back into the college dorms last week, this time as an RA.  This week our daughter started…

  • Christmas has come and gone. I’ve always heard the phrase “slow as Christmas”, but when you think about it Christmas is not really slow.  It sneaks up on us pretty quickly every year and before you know it, it’s all over with.  All of the family gatherings, the food, the lights, the presents, it’s all…

  • Christmas Burn Out

    I heard someone make the comment the other day that they are just ready for Christmas to be over with!  All of the hustle and bustle and stress that comes along with the materialism of Christmas undoubtedly has gotten the best of some of us. And I completely understand because I have felt the same…

  • Tough Times

    We all go through tough times, some tougher than others.  We have heartaches and heart breaks.  That is just life.  We go from skinned knees and sprained ankles to car accidents and health problems. We go from having an empty piggy bank to a negative balance in our checking account with more bills due!  Or…

  • Black Friday

    Today is Black Friday. I don’t know how we got to this point, but in America we have actually made an extra holiday out of shopping and fighting over sales and those hard to get deals for Christmas. Don’t get me wrong, I love a good sale and a good deal. Who doesn’t?  I’ve been…
