Drink Deep…. 

I have come to a better understanding of the need I have for fresh, “living water” daily in order to successfully achieve my goals in health. Our body is about 60% to 75% water. A person at rest loses about 40 ounces of water per day. Water leaves our body in the urine, in your… Continue reading Drink Deep….

Fragile… 

This morning as I sat at my desk organizing the day and week, I looked up at the cork board above my computer and saw the delicate painted egg that a former visiting teacher gave me. I have new visiting teachers now, but I so enjoyed getting to know her then (thankfully I still see… Continue reading Fragile… 

Scripture Sunday

Prodigal… dutiful… rejoicing 

This morning I find myself contemplating the parable of the prodigal son. I find myself in the unusual position of identifying with, and perhaps “being” all three characters in the story at once. The parable of the prodigal son is the most developed of the three parables of the “lost”, the “seeker”, and the “found.”… Continue reading Prodigal… dutiful… rejoicing

Love Changes Everything 

Lately I am obsessing over how to motive not only myself, but my children, to make good choices. It’s hard. I believe firmly that God is very concerned about the quality of my life just I am concerned for the quality of my kids lives. He wants me to do more than just believe in… Continue reading Love Changes Everything

Life may not be fair… it’s a circus 

My kids (especially my son) believe that life is not fair. At one point my husband and I were tired of hearing “It’s not fair” that my husband made up a game entitle “The Fair is in August” and we played it for family night. More recently “it’s not fair” is coupled with “that’s stupid.”… Continue reading Life may not be fair… it’s a circus

The only thing that will stop you from fulfilling your dreams is you. Tom Bradley Today I’ve been thinking about the power of positive thinking and just I’d like to increase positive self talk in my day to day life.

Forward Thinking 

God is a forward thinking and acting God. I want to be a forward thinking woman. I’ve been pondering this idea and luckily I found Jeremiah 7:23-24:“But this is what I commanded them, saying, ‘Obey My voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be my people. And walk ye in all the… Continue reading Forward Thinking

Leaping Walls in a Single Bound 

I may have built a brick house too fast… I feel like I hit a brick wall! I’m sporting a massive headache… I feel like I’m moving in slow motion… pretty much everything aches. I’m not panicking. I know it comes with the territory of a complete cleanse. I’ve done this before and I know… Continue reading Leaping Walls in a Single Bound

The House I build… little pig style… 

Today I came across the following scripture: “The wise woman builds her house, But the foolish pulls it down with her hands.” Proverbs 14:1 I can’t help but think about the story of the three little pigs. In the story, the big bad wolf was hungry for a nice ham sandwich (forgive my indulgences with… Continue reading The House I build… little pig style…

D is for DEVOTION… oh to be a hummingbird… 

It’s hummingbird season. I have a butterfly bush outside my family room window. I planted it there on purpose because I like to watch the butterflies and hummingbird come and visit the lavender blossoms. These little birds are amazing. Their average weight is 1/8 ounce. Their wings beat between 40 and 80 beats per second.… Continue reading D is for DEVOTION… oh to be a hummingbird…
