It’s 2:45 a.m. and I’m awake – so very awake. This happens frequently when SB is out of town and let’s just say I’ll be glad when he gets home so I can go back to nights of peaceful, easy feelings. You know the kind of feelings like resting your head on a cool pillow. [...]

Psalm 126 (The Message)
A Pilgrim Song
1-3 It seemed like a dream, too good to be true, when God returned Zion’s exiles.
We laughed, we sang,
we couldn’t believe our good fortune.
We were the talk of the nations—
”God was wonderful to them!”
God was wonderful to us;
we are one happy people.
4-6 And now, God, do it again—
bring rains to [...]

“The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your love, O Lord, endures forever…” Psalm 138:8
I am waiting in anticipation of God this morning. No, I’m not wanting to take over his job of orchestrating my life. Been there. Done that.
What I mean is simply that I’m navigating the waters of waiting on Him for [...]

This morning when I got out of bed, I got down on my knees. It’s something I’ve been doing recently through a Beth Moore Bible study on the Psalms of Ascent. But today, I felt particularly drawn DOWN. I began my prayers with thanksgiving for another day and for another breath. Sometimes it’s the more [...]

A couple of Saturdays ago, Little Brown Light Ministries and I led a christian women’s conference in Noxubee County, MS. I was a little nervous about this particular conference – although I clearly hear and feel and see God opening opportunities like these for me. Noxubee County is SB’s home turf, so imagine my knees quaking [...]

It’s a simple enough concept people.
You know - the times and the situations we all find ourselves in periodically and we question ourselves, “How did I end up here?” Like when we voluntarily decide to go back the orthodontist as an adult because sometimes the first time wasn’t enough torture. Or when we offer to keep someone [...]
When it all comes together

I sure do love a good plan. Even more so is when the plan seems to, you know, be like jello. It may take a little while and there can be a whole lot of wiggling around during the process. But when it all comes together – it’s finally ready and delicious! [...]

You’ve heard, “Walking after Midnight”, “Walking in Memphis,” and even walking in the rain. Let me introduce you to a dream and another “walk” that’s been nearly 25 years in the making…
“To Walk on Fertile Ground” is my first book that tells my story of learning to live with infertility and battling cancer. The seed [...]
