Happy New Year Everyone!!! New Year resolutions. I literally despise them!! I know that a ton of people make them and try to live by them, but for most people that make a resolution, they just don’t last. I find that a lot of resolutions are so self-absorbed – making more money, eating better, less stress, losing weight and the list goes on. As followers of Christ, I think we should be truly looking at our lives every day and making the...

I was making dinner in our kitchen a few weeks ago and one of my kids told me that it smelled good. I said “thanks, but I don’t smell it right now because I’ve been cooking it for so long, I have just gotten immune to the smell. It’s like cooking a frog!” Well, the whole family looked at me and wondered what in the world I was talking about. I was AMAZED that they have never heard the analogy of how to cook a frog. So here it is… If you take a...

I remember being told many times growing up “Don’t do that, you don’t want to be labeled as that type of person”. I’ll be honest….I really don’t remember what I was doing to have someone tell me that, but I do remember that statement. Maybe it was for my sister, and I was just standing close by to hear it……Hahaha!!! I think it is funny how some people don’t want any type of label and other people spend their whole lives trying to get one. I...

The fall is my favorite time of year. I LOVE the cooler weather and all the colors in the trees. It is an awesome time of the year to be in the woods. It is so cool to see the seasons and the world just do its thing. Conversations that people are having now a days seems like the world is ending in a few minutes ora few days and maybe it is. But seeing God’s creations just do their things, unaffected by what is going on in this world is so cool....

I don’t have to write anything about our country and this world being in rough shape right now, because everyone reading this already knows that. There is so much going on everywhere! But I have the solution to it all. I have the answer to all of the worlds problems…..literally! It’s LOVE!! I am sure that a ton of people just rolled their eyes when they read that, but it is very true. It is so important and is such an answer to all things that...

Happy Independence Day to all of you! I am a very patriotic person and definitely love this country that I am blessed to live in and raise my kids in. Do we have issues and problems? Absolutely we do. But this is still the greatest country in the world to live. I heard a news story about a month ago that actually made me laugh out loud. Kim Jong-un, the leader of North Korea, declared that mullets and skinny jeans were no longer allowed in...

Everything is created for a purpose. Some things are obvious as to what they were created for, and others... not so much. Look at hairless cats - what the heck are they for? I would NEVER question God and anything that He has created, but I really would like to know what He was intending there. To be honest, those things are on a very short list of things that freak me out. This ministry was definitely created for a purpose. It is to bring the...
