I have so much to say but I simply feel right now is not the time to say it. I want to be obedient to the Lord's direction in my life. Until He leads me or releases me to write more I am going to link other blog posts that are catching my eye or… Continue reading Silence

Words from Isaiah
Well, I wrote a different post yesterday but the Lord hasn't released me to share it which happens from time to time. So, for now, I am "sitting" on that post and we'll see how the Lord directs me to use it. Until then, I spent some time in Isaiah this morning and several verses leapt off… Continue reading Words from Isaiah
A Time of Reflection …
"[ The Magnificat: Mary’s Song of Praise ] Mary responded, “Oh, how my soul praises the Lord. How my spirit rejoices in God my Savior! For the Mighty One is holy, and he has done great things for me." Luke 1:46-47, 49 As I start to look towards 2017 and think about my goals for… Continue reading A Time of Reflection …
Making Sense of It All
I'll be honest ... I have struggled to know what to write over the last week. The last week has been hard here in East TN. We started the week of Thanksgiving out with a horrible school bus crash in Chattanooga that saw the loss of 6 precious children. Then we had several horrible, senseless… Continue reading Making Sense of It All
The Behind-the-Scenes Look
Let's have some fun today. I often receive some questions about my glasses, my clothes, my jewelry, my shoes and what not ... so I thought I would share my "secrets" when it comes to affordable styles and whether or not keeping up with trends is worth it for a non-size 10 body. 🙂 **Please… Continue reading The Behind-the-Scenes Look
The Song in the Night
As the smoke literally dissipated throughout Knoxville last night and the sun rose, I had one song lyric running through my mind before I ever looked at my phone to see who won the presidential election. My hope is in the name of the Lord. As I read the results and was absolutely stunned by what… Continue reading The Song in the Night
It Is What It Is

It simply is what it is. You've just got to roll with the punches and go with the flow. I've… Continue reading It Is What It Is
Trust the Process
“Trust the process. God hasn’t brought you this far to suck the wind out of your sails.” These were the words I tapped out in a quick reply text to a friend a few weeks ago as she begged me for prayers over a situation that she was guaranteed wouldn’t be a problem. I wasn’t… Continue reading Trust the Process
Mirror, Mirror
As I am sitting here waiting to get my oil changed, I am thinking through the last blog I posted. Blogging can be a catch 22. You never know how people will read and receive what you write. No matter how many times you edit or rephrase something then someone can still take misunderstand what… Continue reading Mirror, Mirror
Not Now Mingle
I pretty much have come to the conclusion that I am screwed up. Ha! Well, I mean we all are in some way or another but having never really dated I don’t know how to relax and just enjoy the process. I question everything I say and do and figure it’s probably the wrong thing anyway.… Continue reading Not Now Mingle
