Until Sunday………

I’m slipping away to my mom’s for a couple of days with Olivia.  I will add the Battlefield of the Mind lesson for this week on Sunday afternoon. I love you all and I will miss you!  Summer is slipping through our fingers, though, so we’re trying to...

How Deeply Do I Love….Really…..

  As I was gathering photos from our trip last April to send to my cousin Tanner so that he could work on the poster for the Faith’s Journey Project, I was struck with the reality of how much I had forgotten about the great need for hope and love in India.  With...

Praying through EVERYTHING……

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. I’ve found myself having one of those mornings where I could have written a lot of irrational thoughts. Hurting...

So close and yet so blurry……..

Happy Fourth….on the Fifth! :)

Do you ever feel like you’re one day late in saying or doing just about everything?!?!?  I sure do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As I was thinking of all of you this morning, I was hoping your Fourth of July was wonderful and full of some sort of special memories!  We spent...

Battlefield of the Mind: Week Four

Deuteronomy 7:22 The LORD your God will drive out those nations before you, little by little. I really love this chapter in Joyce Meyer’s book, because it reminds me that God doesn’t always do things quickly or “all at once.” In a world where...

A Road You Never Want to Travel Alone…..

I couldn’t believe it when I looked up and saw this road sign while driving through Columbus on Monday afternoon. My husband and I were in Ohio for the Mike Furrey Foundation Dinner, and I found myself driving through the part of Columbus where we had spent...
