Wellspring of Life and granddaughter Rielyn turned four years old today! When I published my first post on May 2, 2010 there was no way of knowing what the next four years would bring. Life has been full of joyous and difficult seasons, but one thing remains the same: our Lord. He is more than […]

Vineyard Days has been mulling around inside almost since I began writing Desert Days two years ago. Though I was experiencing a ‘parched field’ season back then, there was a growing assurance through faith that I had not traveled thus far in my life to remain living in desert-like conditions. If my desert was to […]

Like most people, entering a new year gets my most hopeful juices flowing. I admit I was ready to wave “buh-bye!” to 2011. Then without so much as a hiccup, the New Year came splashing in upon us like a jet boat churning up water. We’ve been riding the wake the past two weeks. 2012 […]

No matter what the next 366 days bring (it’s Leap Year, too!), the LORD is already there as each day dawns. He’s waiting just for you…and I pray you experience the magnificence of His presence for where the […]

Even the desert has its times of victory! However, the only […]

Earlier this week I came across a teaching that is the capstone my spirit has been waiting for to bring closure to this series on Desert Days. Instinctively, I’ve known for several weeks that the shift was coming but recognized that waiting for God’s timing was key. On the Jewish calendar there is a specific […]

When I was elementary school age, one of our family vacations included a visit to a cave’s interior. You know the kind…where the guide turns out the flashlight and the inky blackness is so thick, you cannot see your hand in front of your face. If you were to try to move, all sense of […]

Tonight, I want to sing but I am tired. I’ve missed singing, but this evening all I want is a lullaby sung over me. This Sunday evening puts to rest an intense week. It was full of physical activity and emotional draw in my workplace, as well as precious too-little time with family who lives […]
