Who Am I? (part 2)
When I was a girl, we had 4 fruit trees growing in the front yard. Since I was the youngest of 7 kids, guess who always got stuck picking up the rotten fruit that fell off the trees … ME! One day, while picking up rotten fruit, two kids from down the block came by and picked a few apples off one of the trees. … Continue reading Who Am I? (part 2)
Who Am I?
A number of Pastors are teaching on this subject right now – I love when God speaks through many voices! This post was originally published under a my former blog in July 2011, but the question is just as relevant today. Enjoy!

Of course, they all thought it was hysterically funny and I’m sure broke into immediate laughter. But by my recollection, from the moment of ‘first grab’ to … Continue reading The Break Up
911 – What’s your emergency?
The other day, my oldest daughter and I were practically rolling on the floor laughing! She had one of those moments when she realized … gasp … that she is becoming more and more like her mom. Hey, we’ve all had those moments – and not all of them are funny. But this one was!! Hysterical in fact! And in the telling of her own ridiculously silly … Continue reading 911 – What’s your emergency?
The Valley of Dry Bones and Failures
Do you have a ‘valley of dry bones’ in your life? Passions and aspirations that once inspired you but are now dead and decomposed, their sun-bleached bones discarded into the dump heap? I do! Over the years, I’ve had many hopes and dreams that seem to come for a season (nearly overtaking me in their power and all-consuming passion), only to fade away into nothingness over time. Sometimes … Continue reading The Valley of Dry Bones and Failures
