  • Social Media: The cause of neighborly un-love.

    If you couldn’t already tell by some of the title I come up with I like some debate. I enjoy looking into something, getting passionate about it, and then seeing where people stand on the issue. Ever since I was a little girl I’ve been that way. Not a great character trait to grow up Continue reading

  • Our broken pieces

    Kintsugi pottery dates back to at least the 15th century (some website state the 16th or 17th century). Kintsugi is a Japanese art of repairing broken pottery by using gold to join the pieces back together. Legend says that this began when shogun Ashikaga Yoshimasa broke his favorite tea bowl so, he shipped it back Continue reading

  • Suffering for God

    A few months ago I was reading through the book of Acts and a passage stood out to me and I’ve been meditating on it ever since and therefore it warrants a blog post. As I was reading chapter nine I came to verse 16 and I had to pause. Did Jesus really say that? Continue reading

  • Can I trust God with this?

    Have you ever come to the root of your spiritual issue and found yourself thinking that God was untrustworthy in this circumstance? What your sour attitude, worry/anxiety, or anger boils down to is this… God, you’re not big enough to solve this problem/ I can’t trust you with this situation because it’s too personal/ I’m Continue reading

He makes the hard decisions and takes the brunt of the world. He protects and provides for his family. He loves Continue reading

  • Public Speaking

    Today, I had the privilege to speak on a very small scale during a Ladies Gathering. This small part was just a seven minute lead up into a prayer session but it had held a weight to me. This got me thinking about the importance of public speaking, not just in any realm, but the Continue reading

  • An epiphany.

    A new practice When I had my first three kiddos in five short years I felt like I was up to my ears in kids, diapers everywhere, and I knew that the toddler tantrums would never end (joking.. kind of). With the overwhelm I felt at the time I couldn’t see that children do indeed Continue reading

  • An encouragement for the tired mama.

    Take the time to… say the prayer.. hug a little longer and give one more kiss.. read the book.. again.. brush your teeth and comb your hair.. play on the floor with your little one.. nap on the couch while the kids watch a movie.. eat a nutritious meal instead of the crust of a Continue reading

After many appointments with specialists we received the diagnosis for our little girl, Hypoplastic Right Heart Syndrome. Our baby would be born with severe congenital heart defects that would require multiple open heart surgeries Continue reading
