There are days when it’s critical to remember that it’s as simple as starting over. I’ve been missing for a while. Again! Missing from this page, gone from my work of writing books and posting snippets aimed to bright or lighten someone’s day. All because my life took over my work. The interruptions were worthy Read more…
You Are Greatly Loved
Sometimes it’s hard to fathom or even believe that we are loved. Just as we are we doubt, due to others who have treated us in unlovely ways or whispered lies the enemy wants us to believe… that we’re unworthy. Well actually we are. We all are. Unworthy. Imperfect. But completely loved anyway by the Read more…
Enjoy the Journey
What does it mean to enjoy the journey? Is it giving thanks that there are clean clothes to fold? Medicine to take for your cold? A home to dust? A family to feed? A job to do? When others may have none? Let’s shift our perspective. This is our life. Today is what we’re given. Read more…

Go Out On A Limb
Sometimes we are called to go out on a limb. To places that may scare us with their power. Places that don’t make sense to anyone but us. I remember years ago, after a divorce, when I was called to move to Chicago. It made no sense. I just knew I was meant to go. Read more…
Making a Difference Drip by Drip

Celebrate Your Baby Steps
Do you celebrate your baby steps? Me neither. But I’m changing that. I’m in the middle of writing my second book. It’s hard. I mean really hard. It’s a long march in which I’m prone to forget that it’s also one of my greatest joys. We tend to focus on some huge end goal, forgetting Read more…
