Some years ago, I wrote a piece about a vivid memory I had regarding Mother’s Day. Try as I might, I could not find it today when I was searching for it. I couldn’t even recall where I had written it. Was it a blog post? An unpublished story? An entry in an old journal?…
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…
Yesterday I created a new playlist on my Spotify. It’s a little-known fact that I have an extremely strange collection of playlists on my phone. I like to pick out common themes in the music I listen to, and this particular playlist came to me after I recalled some lyrics to an old Rita Coolidge…
Christmas has always been my favorite holiday of the year. This year, however, I was burdeneded by a feeling of utter defeat and all of the joy that I usually feel at Christmas time sort of fluttered away. Thinking back over the past twelve months, it was a constant struggle in one way or another,…
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…

My fiftieth birthday is looming. In about two and a half weeks, I’ll be half a century old. This has been weighing on me a bit. Usually, I don’t think twice about getting older. I feel like the lessons I’ve learned over the years have been well-received and that God has always blessed me with…
Roe versus Wade has finally been overturned and I’m sure that most Christians and pro-life advocates are overjoyed at the news. It is, in fact a huge win for pro-life advocates, but will it bring about the results that they had hoped for? The fact remains that until we have good solid teaching for our…
Today, Rebecca, God wants you to know that to love is to be vulnerable. Love is the opening of the heart, the welcoming of your beloved. Loving is not secure, authentic loving is risky. Security lies behind the walls of a closed heart. You either invite the union by opening in love, or you secure the…
