Finding Hope in This Crazy World
You may know one - or have known one. The Killjoy, the Jezebel or the Naracissit who consistantly ruins every holiday. It may be a birthday, a Thanksgiving, or even Christmas. Every year they make a scene - to be seen. It's almost like they are on steroids. All those criticizing, belittling, and blaming behaviors... Continue Reading →

This is in honor for my friend going through a rough time. Stand strong my sister - you can do this. You are worth so much more.
Busy, busy, busy. That describes most of us. School,work, sports, music, family, church, etc. We are overburdened with obligations.

There are times life is too loud. There are so many distractions these days with all our other responsibilities. I gave myself some time off this past week - to unplug, refresh, and recharge. I put my phone away. I didn't blog everyday. I didn't check Facebook 12 times a day. I didn't record any... Continue Reading →
My rant to a harassing person from my past that will not respect my NO: Not everyone is our friend. There are those people who are alongside the Enemy and just wish to kill, steal, and destroy. There is good, and there is evil. Learning to discern the difference between the two has been a... Continue Reading →
Keeping your sanity - when you are sleeping with the enemy. Let me share a story. I came to the Lord during a time of crisis in my life. Isn't that how it goes? Anyway, I was charmed by the 'snake' just like Eve in the garden. His talk was smooth, he was absolutely charming,... Continue Reading →
