I have a great group of ladies in my life. I recommend every woman get a small group of spiritually powerful women to encourage and inspire them. We are all so different. We have different goals and life backdrops going on but when we all show up at the same time on a given Friday morning…
Your best life is the one you create with intentions, not the one your are forced into because of circumstances.
Often when we are faced with conflict, how we respond can effect our lives forever. Do you hope that if you let things die down, things can be sorted out later. I can attest to living by that very idea. But in reality the best time to resolve conflict is in the immediate. Can you…
I am a writer, I like being heard. Most people do. As a writer and a long time people pleaser, I love when people say “good job” or tell me an article was inspiring. If we are honest we all want to be great at what we do. It’s the end goal for most of…
My ugly brown boots prepared my hear to be grateful for what I have. They also taught me not let frustration convince me to throw out what I should be thankful for.

Do you want to increase the level of gratitude in your home, marriage and relationships? In the previous post we talked about the terrible cost of ingratitude and how it effects our lives. I asked readers to identify if they were living with the effects of ingratitude? Is it yourself that tends to respond negatively to…
This month you hear more about gratitude than any other time of the year. With the holidays around the corner it is a great way to give us pause and go into the gift giving season with better motives. Gratitude is not a natural human response. When we are young we expect our needs to be…
How Do You Choose? Choosing the right tablet can seem daunting. There is no shortage of options for giving tech, but my first priority is for my kids to be safe online. The technology is in place at a price we can all afford Right now Kindle Fire, this powerful little tablet, is available from…
I had a vague idea that I wanted to take my writing to a new level. I am sure that you have felt the tug of one more thing that seemed like it is calling out to you, to add it to your life. The pull to change directions can be so strong we can…
David sinned. He saw Bathsheba bathing on her roof top. This was not yet sin. He continued to think of her. He even started searching out who she was. He was told that she was the daughter of Eliam and the wife of Uriah. Still not yet sin. He continued his thoughts about her until he…
What set David apart from Saul as a King. I have been studying the life of David for a few months now. We have been doing a lot of reading and discussion in Sunday school class, but the truth came late one night as I was going to sleep, as all divine revelations and check…
God was stirring up ideas in my heart but I was not sure of where to go from there. I had an idea but no real vision. Have you been there? Circling the airport waiting to land, looking for clarity. I have a small group of friends that choose to study together on Fridays. I…
