So I kind of feel as if I am writing this post just for me, but sometimes that happens I guess...For much of my life I have battled with intense anxiety...over everything! It has done a number on my life: limiting my social abilities, my adaptation abilities, my spiritual life, everything.I hold on very closely … Continue reading Anxiety

New Direction
This weekend I was blessed to attend a Bay Area Christian Writers' Conference at Redwood Chapel. As a writer, it was a wonderful blessing to get instruction from professionals. As a Christian, it was great to be in a place of fellowship with others seeking God's plan for their lives.While there, my brain was filled … Continue reading New Direction
Single & Learning
Singleness... This is a topic I rarely broach here. I did write about my "Moves Like Jagger", but that was about it. However, in a recent post, Letter to Me, I included the following: You won't be married by the time you thought you would, but that's ok. We both still have A LOT of growing up … Continue reading Single & Learning
2012 – My Challenge
As I start off the 2012 year, I face some difficult times in life.

I have hit … Continue reading 2012 – My Challenge

Predictability is how I like to pretend my life is run. However, looking back, I know this is not … Continue reading Take the Risk

Unanswered Prayers and Unwalked Paths
"Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers. Remember when you're talking to the Man upstairs, just because He don't answer, doesn't mean He don't care. Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers."These are Garth Brooks lyrics that until recently I did not fully understand. I know what the song is about, how he has a … Continue reading Unanswered Prayers and Unwalked Paths
Life: Unmasked – God Works
Everyone who knows me knows that fall is my favorite time of year. I love the colder weather, longer nights, the sights and smells. I love the chili and cornbread; the hot chocolate. I love the crunchy, colorful leaves, and I especially love football! However, until today, I have yet to really enjoy it this year. … Continue reading Life: Unmasked – God Works
FREEDOM
Recently, God has been teaching me what it means to live in Freedom. I have learned what it is to live in a cage, slaves to sin and brokenness. I have learned that many of us, when given the opportunity to live in freedom are too afraid to make the move.Galatians 5:1 tells us that … Continue reading FREEDOM
