A few precious moments to myself ~~ it’s not always this easy to capture ~~ and it is the perfect opportunity to make a wise decision. Do I go shopping? Do I watch a movie? Do I curl up with a book? Do I dive into social media? The options are so many ~~ […]

“All Means ALL.”
‘Everyone’ includes the ‘unlovable ones’ in our life: that person we avoid at work, in the neighborhood, at family gatherings, at our child’s school. Problem is that we seem to think that God would only want to call the ones with whom we personally get along ~~ the ones for whom we are […]
“Be Still.”
Psalm 37:7 Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait patiently for him to act. Don’t worry about evil people who prosper or fret about their wicked schemes. Be. Still. Oh how many, many times do we begin our days in such a flurry that we can’t even remember to do the […]
“Late Bloomer”
I scribble these lines to you mid-October ~~ which is typically a cooling introduction to autumn. But here in Southern California, our summer has decided not to give way to a beckoning fall, but rather remain with us for much longer.

“Love and Respect”

As the physician’s assistant hung my X-rays in front of me, I knew before he spoke a word that this conversation was going to exceed the […]
“Dialogue In My Heart”
Caption this. If you could write the dialogue of what’s going on in her mind, what would the conversation sound like?
“The Pause Button”
There are some things in life that just get us all flustered, and one of them is waiting. The traffic light turns red after the first car goes through the intersection. Wait. The final decision about the job interview isn’t confirmed before the weekend begins. Wait. The direct deposit incurred a glitch in the system […]
“On Letting Go”
This was the day my heart broke in a million pieces. I. Cried. All. The. Way. Home. My youngest child had made the decision to attend a university a plane flight away. He was always the most adventuresome one among the three of my children. As a toddler he was the one to make […]
