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 will give to the Lord the thanks due to his righteousness, and I will sing praise to the name of the Lord, the [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
I have felt so helpless lately. It started a while ago seeing images of precious people living on nothing just trying to get by.
It came roaring at me two weeks ago with the earthquake in Haiti. The images of poverty stricken, broken people floated before my eyes. I didn’t close the websites or stop reading [...]

Today we are all reeling from the devastating earthquake in Haiti. Thanks to technology images float in front of our eyes of the hurt, dead, and demolished.
The country and her people obviously need prayer and financial support. Their lives have been stripped of the little they had to absolute nothingness. I started thinking how exactly [...]
A few thoughts on my prayer to live more missionally this year.
Probably about two years ago Shawn and I started learning about Missiology and living missionally. It was a new concept for the both of us. In a nut shell, missional living means you live as a missionary to the community you live and work [...]
I had insomnia last night and decided to perpetuate it even more and thought of goals I’d like to accomplish, get closer to in 2010. I don’t care for resolutions. I think that is just setting yourself up for failure. I also don’t think I like goals. To me it sounds like it is me [...]
In April my husband turned me onto Anne Jackson’s blog, Flowerdust. I instantly fell in love with her. She is a phenomenal woman and has a passion for God and people. She inspires me as a speaker, writer, etc. Brad Ruggles made over her site and it premiered tonight. I was pleasantly surprised to see [...]
