New Year, New You?
I have been going through my head all morning of what kind of blog post I wanted to write for the new year. Then, I had the question in my head, do I even need to write one for the new year? My brother’s wife asked me the other day if I am one who…

We Walk Together
Today’s blog post will be a bit lighter than my last one. My last one was deep and yet; it was what I felt I needed to share with you all. This blog post will be a bit breezy and hopefully make you smile. I dedicate this blog to all my morning and evening exercisers…

A Silent Cry
I lay in bed at night unable to sleep. I feel a heaviness that I can’t explain or even identify. The room seems dark and lonely as I think about the problems I can’t solve. I look out the window and see the bright moon. It’s like I can hear it say, “Don’t worry, my…

Pull the Tooth
The last couple of weeks I have spent some time in the dentist chair. I first had to put two crowns on two teeth that had cracks in them and then go back to fix three more cracked teeth. One of the teeth that got crowned, has been a problematic tooth for over ten years.…

Last week we had a big storm with a lot of wind, thunder and lightning. My youngest came into our room when the electricity went out, because she was scared. I took her downstairs, lit some candles and we sat in a chair while eating pretzel sticks. Yes, we were emotional eating and if there…

What They Don’t See
Tonight, I am writing because the emotions are still raw, and writing is the best way for me to work through them. My oldest daughter just lost once again in the blood round at regionals to go to state wrestling. Third year in a row, and it only gets harder to deal with the loss…

What If You Hadn’t Prayed
I was visiting with another Christian woman at a wrestling tournament not too long ago. She was telling me a story about something she had gone through and how she had prayed, but things didn’t turn out the way she prayed. She said she couldn’t understand why things still didn’t go well. She asked the…

I Don’t Know How to Do This
This morning, I was walking on the treadmill and praying. I had the song, “Goodness of God” playing on my phone. I was praying about some things with Andy and to be honest, I was fretting about things as well. I was talking to God about my husband Andy and how he has moved into…
