At my son’s recent field trip to a literary festival, one of the speakers said “the happiest adults are those, who find a way to do what they loved as a child.” This caught my attention because after ten years of being a stay-at-home mom, I sent my baby to kindergarten this fall. I’m in […]

Innocent people are being manipulated, and hearts are being corrupted by dangerous distortions – sometimes it seems like lies are taking over. Lord, You are the Spirit of Truth and Justice. In the end, I know You […]

He took my humble offerings and sent angels to illuminate a path for me. I followed the pixie dust trail of brilliance blindly, trudging through dark swamps and wildflower valleys.
