This is how I feel today. That’s Jesus breaking out of the tomb. I love how he’s running. He’s free. We are free too. That’s the miracle of Easter. I hope you had a good Easter and I hope you feel God’s amazing power and grace. Today is a new day. Just like Jesus, I

The Criminal on the Cross
It’s Holy Week. Yesterday in church they read the Passion. As I was sitting there playing with my palm, trying to turn it into a cross, I thought of something new. When the criminal on the cross next to Jesus says to him “Are you not the Christ? Save yourself and us!” it made me

Putting on God’s Armor
I was on the battlefield yesterday. Actually, it started last week when they called me in for some more tests. They saw something on the mammogram that was suspicious. Of course, they didn’t say this they just said that I need to come in for a bilateral screening and an ultrasound. Then they called back

Hope for the Pope
When I was out to lunch on Wednesday and my mom texted me in capitals…THERE IS A NEW POPE!! I was just like everyone else. Clueless. I hadn’t been paying much attention. But I have to say, I felt very excited and giddy as I was driving home really fast to see who this new Pope

Rainbows
As you know, I’ve committed to reading the entire Bible during Lent. This has proven to be quite a challenge. However, I have decided I like the discipline of knowing that I’m committed to it even if it takes me using the “catch up day” to read a few days at once. After I read

Path to Freedom
It’s Ash Wednesday. This brings up questions in our house. Mainly, do we have to go to church? Do we have to keep the ashes on? I don’t like that we can’t see what they look like…sometimes it’s too smudgy. And…Why can’t we eat meat? Why do I have to give something up? Can I

My Dream House
I’m all over the map today. My daughter is home sick so I’m rearranging furniture and hanging things. By the end of the day, the dining room will be an office and the family room will be filled with lots of new things hanging on the walls. I have no rhyme or reason and I don’t
