Generally, these posts are about the beauty I see daily...or each week...or whenever GOD reveals it to me or allows me to experience it. This week's beauty is a little different:The most BEAUTIFUL GIFT of all:"the Lord Himself will give you a sign:The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call Him … Continue reading In Search of Beauty…Isaiah [53]

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

Life: Unmasked – Grace for the Grace-less
Today I woke up as a small business co-owner. Not only that, today marked our first day actually open as a business.

I too am tired of the reminders all around that I am alone. From Bridal magazines to reality "love" shows, from the dwindling number of single … Continue reading Moves Like Jagger
Disappointment
Disappointment=Today I received two rejection letters. One from a job I had recently applied for and one from the magazine I was hoping would give me my first professionally published piece. June 2011 is upon us this week. Now, halfway through the year, I am re-evaluating things. Life is not what I had expected, not where … Continue reading Disappointment
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
