  Have you wondered when your day will come? We often feel like the woman in the middle of others’ successes, with dreams fulfilled and prayers answered. Maybe you look and see things falling into place for people around you and think…when is the thing that I’m waiting for going to happen? When is my…

I’m experiencing Spring in a whole new way this year. Living in an area with distinct seasons, including long winters, brings new hope as we see trees budding their leaves and green blades of grass peeking through months of brown landscape. Are you in a long, cold winter season, friend? Hang tight; Hope is on…

There is an aspect to this East Coast living that I haven’t adjusted to yet- enduring the brown grass season. No one warned me about this. No one told me that I’d be looking at a sea of ugly beige as the grass lies dormant for roughly five months. Moving to South Carolina from Southern…

  It’s tough to beat a good romantic comedy. My husband and I hit the theater last weekend and met up with friends to see Solo Mio. It’s about a wedding disaster that leaves a groom stranded at the altar in the magnificent city of Rome. I was reminded of how difficult romantic love is…

I finished my 16 hours of fasting and prayer with a plate of gooey enchiladas I had made over the weekend. My head was saying have a salad, but my stomach was growling and hungry for more. There are days when a light meal is sufficient, and then there are times when we need heartier…

  Last week, we started our women’s Bible study at church. We took time for each lady to introduce herself and share a little about her life. Later that day, my friend noted to me how many of the women said they were in a waiting period. Either their career had suddenly detoured, or they…

I sat at my desk in the kitchen as my daughter filled out the application for a master’s program. We discussed this incredible opportunity to be part of a new venture from her alma mater. She wanted to have joyful expectations, but only a small number of students would be accepted, and she would have…
