Faith Over Fear
Prayer: Have Your way, Lord. My mind and heart have been so full of fear. I understand now that You can not dwell in the same space as unbelief. I know now that when I feel fear, I will trust in You. Fear. Girl, I had to take a deep breath after typing that word.…

Cries and Roars

I will admit, I am a very overprotective parent. However, I know when to step back, and let my daughter spend time with other people, despite my fears.

Looking for Beauty in These Ashes

Here is my story… In late August of 2021, my father passed away during Hurricane Ida. No one knew it happened, and he was alone in his apartment until strangers found him. All I can say is that I was heartbroken to learn he passed this way. In fact, I blamed myself for weeks for…

Forgiveness for the Future

These last five months have taught me much more about life than anytime I can recall. Watching my blessing grow into this thriving little one has been eye-opening. J.R. has so much personality; she is picking up on words and moving faster than I expected her to. She is so observant also. I have decided…
