Have you ever had a day that was so chock full of emotion that you are completely, emotionally hungover the next day? Well…that is me today. Yesterday my niece graduated from high school. I may be weeping under those sunglasses…but you can’t prove it! 😍😍 To say that I am proud of her is theContinue reading

Desert Time

Hey there! So…I’ve been MIA. A lot has been going on in my world, causing me to neglect my first passion…which is writing. There are times when I want to shout from the mountaintops what is going on…and times when I’m huddled in my turtle shell, well…just hiding in my shell. The past few weeksContinue reading “Desert Time”

Long term vision

A mistake that I’ve made in the past is focusing so acutely on the short term that I lose sight of the long term. Some may say that I cut my nose off to spite my face. I recently read the story of Jacob, where he is wrestling with God. He wrestled with God forContinue reading “Long term vision”

Valley of the Bones

Today is the last day of January 2018. I can’t believe we’re a month into the year already. The phrase that I am hearing today is “new beginnings.” See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland. Isaiah 43:19 This is a season of healing and restoration. This isContinue reading “Valley of the Bones”

Self love and acceptance

You’re so fat. You’re ugly. Oh my goodness–look at you hair! You’re too stupid to learn that.  You can never achieve that goal. You are a failure. You shouldn’t even try. Would you say those things to your best friend? To your child? To your lover? No? Then why do you do that to yourself?Continue reading “Self love and acceptance”

Asian fusion

God has been building this foundation in my life…one that I have fought tooth and nail.  (I don’t even know what that means…but it sounds appropriate.)  Anyway.  My last job in corporate America was for an Asian language publisher in Boston.  Our bread and butter was textbooks teaching Mandarin.  It was a difficult job, butContinue reading “Asian fusion”

Uncharted territory

I am blessed, humbled, excited beyond comprehension right now. I’ve never been in this place before…this is uncharted territory for me, which is alright with me. Tonight we had our monthly leadership meeting…we call them leadership roundtables. We caught the path that God wants our church to walk. I know I’ve said this before, andContinue reading “Uncharted territory”

Oh when the Saints, go marching in

Oh when the saints, oh when the saints, oh when the saints come marching in….oh i want to be in the numbers, when the saints come marching in! As far as I’m concerned, Deuce McAllister deserves a raise. He’s my new hero…seriously. At least, after tomorrow, I won’t have to hear about the Eagles forContinue reading “Oh when the Saints, go marching in”

Penny for your thoughts

You know that you are an avid blogger when people call to make sure that you are ok after a day of silence 🙂 I’ve been trying to process things that are being thrown at me right now. I’m scared to prayer right now. I’d been taught that prophesy should be confirmation, not information. OverContinue reading “Penny for your thoughts”
