Everyday conversations with Jesus
Waiting with God These last few months have been particularly hard for Christians. We've seen all the terrible decisions that have been made by ungodly leaders. God has told us to wait. During times of prayer, my heart would be reassured that we are waiting together. I'm not alone in the waiting. God is right... Continue Reading →
When my friend went through her divorce my heart broke for her. Her heart had shattered in pieces by infidelity. Trust was broken. His unrepentant heart made this marriage end. A new life had to be build alone with the added burden of single parenting. My friend's faith was wavering. This concerned me. She was... Continue Reading →
Homeschooling is a big job. And if we do it k-12, then it's a long job. So how do you homeschool all these years without regrets? Our children's education is so important. We love our children so much. These things we keep close as we do our day to day homeschool schedules with our kids.... Continue Reading →

"We can make our plans, but the LORD determines our steps." My goal for this year has been to simplify. I feel like God is leading me to do this as well as to live with less. God in His amazing ways does lead us in what is coming ahead. He prepares us. I may... Continue Reading →
The drive thru was busy that day. The customer in the car in front of me was receiving several drinks for a car full of people. All of a sudden his car door opened. He stood up as a pile of ice cubes fell off of his soaking wet pants. A wad of napkins hurriedly... Continue Reading →
Churches are open again in California with some restrictions. For the last year I have watched church from my couch usually wearing comfy clothes and nestled under a cozy blanket. Honestly this fit quite nicely with my introverted self. It's not that I don't like church or even the people at church, I do. It's... Continue Reading →
