For He satisfies the longing soul and fills the hungry soul with goodness. Psalms 107:9. MEV I have been told that I have a voracious appetite for a little person. Quite honestly, I cannot disagree. As far back as I can remember, I’ve always loved a great homemade meal — or any great meal for […]

“When Faith Takes You Out On a Limb”
I arrived early with mama, but I made sure to keep a ‘safe distance’ from the other children as they made their way to the spot of gathering. It was the first day of school. There they were, those familiar scrutinizing eyes, examining me from head to toe. I could feel my palms began to […]
“Nothing, But …”
The blaring sound of the alarm penetrated the room like an invasion from outer space. It’s obnoxious and insensitive declaration that it was another day had made itself known throughout the house. “I just want to pull the covers over my head and die.” She had all but given up on what some would have […]

“Give GOD Your Weird”
In God, whose word I praise; In God I have put my trust; I shall not fear. What can mere man do to me? Psalm 56:4 AMP Awkward as all get out — that’s the current status here. I think it’s that purgatory kind of place between having gone from the shock and devastation of […]
