Sometimes you just need time with your heart friends. I have been blessed beyond measure in the heart friend department. Every season of my life has its own set of people who live in my soul. They know me. They get me. I have found that when things seem upside down in life, heart friends … Continue reading Heart Friends

Web vs. Cocoon
I have always been intrigued by spider webs. They are so delicate, yet so strong. The intricacy is breathtaking…a work of art really. To think that an eight-legged creature created a web that lasts through storms and catches its food boggles my mind. I have walked through enough spider webs when hiking to know that … Continue reading Web vs. Cocoon

The quiet produced was a sure sign that freedom was mine, and that the next day would be full of frolicking and fun. I trained my … Continue reading A Solitary Journey
Practicing Self-Care

In my experience, it usually starts with a phone call. … Continue reading Practicing Self-Care
Incarnation
My Christmas blog is running a bit behind schedule due to the glorious fact I had all four kids home for the holidays. Hopefully even though it is late, it will still be meaningful. It is the season of Emanuel…God with us…God incarnate. The word incarnation literally means “the act of becoming flesh.” Light turned … Continue reading Incarnation
