Dear Wellspring Readers ~ It’s time for this month’s fresh contributor post to the Whatever Girls blog for “intentional moms, intentional daughters.” I have the privilege (if one can call it that!) of being the writer who writes about shame issues – a topic that typically doesn’t garner warm fuzzies. On the other hand, living in the imprisoning […]
Vineyard Days – Grafted In
For quite some time I have been convinced there is absolutely nothing about one’s life that is not spoken to in Scripture. (This post hits rather close to home, spiritually and physically). Some things are overtly obvious, while others are of a more mysterious nature meant to be searched out and discovered. Embedded within the […]
Pure-Hearted
Dear friends of Wellspring, it’s time for my monthly contribution to the Whatever Girls blog post. Today, perhaps your heart needs to hear the whispered answers of the Lord to every shout, groan, or sigh it utters. The link to His whispers is below… Pure-Hearted ~ Nancy
Vineyard Days – Your Eyes as Doves’

2014 – The Year of Double Portion
Here we stand on the threshold of a new year. Three hundred sixty five days stretching out in front of us. What will we do with them? What will 2014 bring? And in return, how will we respond as it unfolds? I think Isaiah was a branch of the True Vine anointed by the Lord […]
Ode to Christ, babe and King
I captured this poem six years ago as it came line by line, verse by verse, in rapid succession. If you are a longtime Wellspring blog follower, you may recognize it from its initial posting in December 2010. If a more recent reader, may you soak in the wonder of such a miracle. It remains […]

Vineyard Days – A Company of Horses
Sometimes our heart knows what our lips cannot quite articulate. There is a stirring inside that is of a nature not our own. An air of expectancy and restlessness. Anticipation, Heinz ketchup-style. An impatience born of a sense of something greater… I think it’s not too far-fetched to compare such stirring to internally ‘pawing the […]
