A few Sundays ago, I had the opportunity to share my testimony with the High School girls in my church. What's so spectacular about my testimony? Well, I was a sinner and Christ saved me. It doesn't get any better than that! Seriously, that's the best testimony and we all can share that if we… Continue reading My Own Fight for Freedom

Truth Is … We Can Handle It
Yesterday, my path crossed on Facebook with another 32-year-old woman who was struggling with the fact that she was single. I sincerely told her that it is better to be holy, whole and alone than dating the wrong person. But like most she struggles seeing friends getting married, coming home to an empty house and not… Continue reading Truth Is … We Can Handle It
This Isn’t A Game
I will never understand why some married men don't wear wedding rings ... especially when they aren't in a job that restricts them from wearing it. Or at the very least mention their wife in conversation. In case you are wondering, yes, I was just made a fool. But it happens. I wasn't flirtatious, yet,… Continue reading This Isn’t A Game
Single in the Church
When I was a little girl, I had two baby dolls and they were named “Darlin’ and Sweet Darlin’”. They were my babies. If you asked me what I was going to be when I grew up I would have probably told you either a mama or a singer. Then on some days… Continue reading Single in the Church
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
Season of Thanks: A Prayer and Two Dreams
In honor of Dr. Billy Graham's 98th birthday today, I am sharing the prayer/poem that his wife Ruth Bell Graham wrote in her teens about the man she hoped to marry someday. The Man I Prayed For Dear God, I prayed, all unafraid (as we’re inclined to do), I do not need a handsome man… Continue reading Season of Thanks: A Prayer and Two Dreams
Season of Thanks: A Letter
To Whom It May Concern: Ha ... that's a little formal sounding coming from me but I did something different this time and decided to write to you, my dear husband, on my blog versus in the journal that has been set aside for your eyes only. (And I am saving my special term of… Continue reading Season of Thanks: A Letter
Lady Edith and I
"Where one story ends another begins." I knew something was coming as I could sense I would be sharing this story for several weeks now but I couldn't imagine how I would be telling it nor how I was to be this open with everyone, therefore, I chose to keep my mouth shut and not… Continue reading Lady Edith and I
So Hacked
A week ago Friday I received an email from Christian Mingle, letting me know that my profile update had been approved. I thought that was funny as I hadn’t submitted any changes to my profile. I figured that was their attempt at getting me back on the site as I had been pretty MIA that… Continue reading So Hacked
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
