I was thinking back, as I sometimes do, to the days when I used to be more easily sidetracked by the notion of being in love. It completely ruined me. Made me look stupid and unhinged to people who would otherwise have thought I had my head on straight. If you had occasion to run…
I recently had someone ask me if I was married (again) yet and much to my chagrin, this made me think. I really don’t need to be married. I’m not waiting for a knight in shining armor to rescue me from some horrible existence as a single person. I have a king who rescues me…
This past week was challenging. I have a lifelong habit of not being able to ask for help when I need it. In fact, I tend to avoid showing weakness whenever possible. It’s not who I want to be. It’s not something that fits my personality or beliefs. While it’s fine to be someone who…

Whoever has no rule over his own spirit is like a city broken down, without walls. ~Proverbs 25:28 NKJV~ I used to carry myself like a tough girl…always cussing people out and daring anyone to call me out of my name. I was angry about everything and I wanted to make sure that everyone knew…
“The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me, Because the Lord has anointed Me To preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives…” ~Isaiah 61:1 NKJV~ There is probably no other reason that I have called upon my God more than to…
The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. ~John 10:10 NKJV~ The devil is a sneaky guy. Literally. When all of his attempts to pull your love away from God fail, he tries…
