I had the privilege to be a contributing author for The Round Farmhouse Ministries’ Advent series. I have been blessed by all the posts in this series. I highly recommend liking their Facebook page and reading the series. Hope, peace, joy, and love all came into this world wrapped in swaddling clothes. He is theContinue reading “A Gift of Peace”

Depression, anger, bitterness, brokenness, and feelings of worthlessness or shame can shackle you to the past and make it hard to move forward. Hearing the song Break Every Chain tonight painted such an essential picture in my mind. Imagine standing or kneeling in front of Jesus, asking for his help, and one by one, HeContinue reading “Break Every Chain”

Have you ever been driving early in the morning or late at night and it is so foggy that you can’t see two feet in front of you and have to sit up on the steering wheel just to ensure you don’t hit anything? Most of us can relate to this. Life can be thatContinue reading “Trusting God in Foggy Conditions”

I just finished reading through the Old Testament with my ladies group at church. It was such an eye opener for me on how patient and pure God’s love is for us. This is my first time reading thru the Old Testament. Chapter 9 of Nehemiah was so powerful for me. It summed up whatContinue reading “God’s Love is Patient”

My mom was such an amazing walking testimony of Faith. She dealt with severe pain off and on for the last  5 years of her life. However, the major health issues were there for the last 12. She would pray constantly at times. There were times at the hospital when she would be half asleepContinue reading “Faith In Action: My Mom’s Legacy”

Regroup, what a perfect reminder for all of us in a busy season. Life gets hectic, our focus gets streamlined on getting our tasks accomplished. Soonexhaustion sets in and we realize that we are not spending the time with God that we need to. We use the excuse, when do I have time?  This isContinue reading “Time to Regroup”

I was honored to be chosen as a guest writer for a study called Pursuing Proverbs. Each day in August the Round Farmhouse Ministries had a guest writer share from that chapter in Proverbs on their Facebook page. My chapter was Proverbs 28. I entitled my devotion, Turning from Sin. Here is the link toContinue reading “Turning from Sin”

God has used my garden to teach me some important lessons this year. For some reason one side of my garden is beautiful and growing strong, while the other side is completely barren. It makes me think of the Parable of the Sower. The ground is soft, the seeds find a healthy place, and rootsContinue reading “Lord, Keep my Heart Soft”

I started gardening after my mom died to honor her because she loved gardening so much. God has used it to talk to me a lot lately. This last time it was about seeds and how to plant them. After planting my flowers, I discovered I was impatient and would go out every couple ofContinue reading “Planting the Seeds of Truth”

When you are gardening you learn the difference between weeding and trimming. I talked about wedding in one of my older posts. It was easy to think about, no one wants the bad stuff in our life. However, God has helped me see that even trimming of the “good” is required to keep our heartsContinue reading “Prune my Heart, O Lord”
