When was the last time you considered trying something new? Fifteen months ago I had the privilege of meeting someone pivotal to my life and I’ve been in race car mode since then. That someone is my life coach. In the beginning of my engagement with her, she had the audacity to take me at […]

I think my boundary lines have often been counted off by the Lord in sevens. So many times as I have looked back on my life in retrospect, I have seen His hand turning tides of my life in seven-year increments. For instance, Twenty-one years ago I was in a deep pit; each seven-year span […]

The LORD has the unique ability to be gentle as a mother hen, yet strong as the Mighty Man of War that He is. If ever there was a time that I needed to be covered by His feathers yet surrounded by a strong tower, it would be now. I love the promise in Scripture […]

There’s been a galloping sound in our house the past week. Our little grandson, not quite two years old, is enthralled with horses. His favorite toy, a stick horse that makes clopping sounds and alternately neighs and whinnies, portrays a simplistic picture of a pursuit that God has promised as part of this ‘remaking Nancy’ […]

It was a sign that apparently the Lord did not want me to miss. CHRIST… SUPPLY shouted at me from the big neon letters on the storefront of the local Christian bookstore in my neighborhood. The ‘IAN’ of their company name was burned out and as I drove past, my eyes were riveted upon it. […]

It was 2009; a time, when recollecting certain difficulties, I refer to as “the year from h-e-double toothpicks.” By now, I had worked in executive assisting for over two […]

Before Tolstoy ever lived to pen his epic War and Peace, God had already put into operation the ebb and flow of wars fought, battles lost, victories won, and then… peace. Last week’s post about Jehoshaphat and the vast army that came against him and God’s people (The Place that Overlooks the Desert) was full […]

God must have had fun when He created Earth’s mountains. I wonder what He was thinking when He pulled off Mt. Everest, the world’s summit of all summits. Perhaps He had Sir Edmund Hillary in mind as He spoke to that particular peak, shaping it higher and higher until it towered with a distinction all […]

Mountain climbing may not be for the fainthearted, but neither is it for the lone ranger. It is one thing to go hiking in the wooded mountains with a compass, a canteen, and some beans and weenies. To reach nosebleed heights on the highest of mountain peaks, it is never wise to go it alone. […]
