I don’t take compliments well.  I don’t know why, I just don’t.  Which is weird since my Love Language is Affirmation.  I don’t know how to respond when complimented.  I feel…………weird.
My husband is my greatest fan and the major source of all compliments.  He makes me feel loved (see previous paragraph mentioning love language).  Shawn [...]

Dredging Out the Nasty

So I’m learning about self control today.  Self control touches so many areas of our life.  Everything from not eating the entire bowl of Peanut M&M’s (in my defense the bowl was no where near even being a quarter full) to not flipping off your computer monitor when you get an email that makes you [...]

More of Him; Less of Me

If I proclaim the greatness of God it is hard to elevate myself.  If I speak of the works and majesty of God it is hard to speak of myself.

I was relistening to a message yesterday on my way to work.  In short the message is about being uncomfortable and using the gifts God has given you.  It is an amazing message and like I said I was driven to listen to it a second time which will probably turn into a third and [...]

Being Uncomfortable

What is it that causes a 19 year old girl to pack up everything and move to South Africa?  Or a young woman to move to Uganda to be a Kindergarten teacher, only to have God move her to start an orphan child sponsorship program?  Or a man who when visiting South Korea was heart [...]

A Wee Bit of Ahhhh

Shawn and I had a wonderful time in Prescott over the weekend.  It was full of lots of time to rest, relax, read, and just be with each other.
Saturday evening I got to see a friend I hadn’t seen in six years.  In that time she has had four beautiful children.  Lately we’ve kept in [...]

When Pollen Attacks

When Pollen Attacks

One of the first thoughts I had of the day was, “Thank God I bought Kleenex yesterday.”  It was actually Target’s Up & Up brand facial tissue, but it serves the same purpose at a fraction of the cost.
Every year this time of year I suffer from insatiable allergies.  The kind that knock me on [...]
