Daily Walking with God
Lighten your load
“Come to me all of you who are tired from the heavy burden you have been forced to carry. I will give you rest. Accept my teaching. Learn from me. I am gentle and humble in spirit. And you will be able to get some rest. Yes, the teaching that I ask you to accept is...
I remember…to never forget
I remember… I remember where I was when I received a call to turn on the news. I remember who was with me at that moment. I remember my thoughts as I was watching the devastation of one plane hitting, then seeing live footage of the second plane crash into the south...
Philippians 2: Be apt, accessible, and ambitious
Welcome back to a quick study/chat about the book of Philippians. I know…I know I said I’d read a chapter every day so it could be consistent, but…life happened. So let’s not waste any more time. Please share any insight with me that you gain from reading each...
Grab and Go
This morning I read Psalm 143:10, Teach me to do Your will, for you are my God. May Your gracious Spirit lead me forward on a firm footing (NLT). I had a peaceful and confident feeling that can only come from God. I felt the Lord saying, “Yes, my child, take my hand...

God is always working behind the scenes
But he said to them, “My Father never stops working, and so I work too.” John 5:17 Do you ever do a task that no one will probably ever notice? I’m sure you do. Clean the junk drawer or the baseboards, change the empty toilet paper (that people in my home have...
He Hears You
I love the Lord for hearing me, for listening to my prayers. Yes, He paid attention to me, so I will always call to Him whenever I need help. Psalm 116:1-2 ERV I love the Lord for many reasons, and this verse specifies just four reasons: He hears me, He listens to my...
Let the adventure begin!
Let the adventure begin! This whole time those are the words I have been thinking about. Then I looked into the mirror, saw the shirt I was wearing, and those are the same words printed on my Yellowstone shirt. I knew this day was coming, and couldn’t be more...
Joy in any circumstance (Philippians 1)

So much Joy! Join me.
Y’all! I received the most precious and HALLELUJAH video text last night! My sweet momma has had three or four shoulder surgeries. One of the simple tasks we do each day in life may be to style our own hair. Momma hasn’t been able to do her own hair in many years....
