Even when He descends to rescue His people, His throne moves with Him, so we never pray to an empty throne. God is always there. 2 God's Word says a lot about having children. 3 Hearing my name in Psalm 139 is awesome. After feeling the impact o...

Thursday, May 27, 2010. The Beauty of Teaching. I could list one hundred reasons why I love teaching, but today I am reminded of at least twelve.

After six years as an educator, these are my top twelve reasons to teach:. 1 Where else do you hear the words, "I love you" so often? 4 Starbucks Giftcards, oh yeah! I am happy to ...

Thursday, May 6, 2010. Surgery on Mother's Day Weekend. Have you ever HOPED you were sick? PRAYED for an illness? I have been doing that lately. I am hoping that I have endometriosis. It just makes sense (that is what I've been telling God - I'm sure He's laughing). If everything else - like my eggs, hormones, and tubes are okay, then the only possible answer my infertility must be that I have endometriosis. Okay, that's not exactly true. Here are other possible explanations:. I am pretty sure that God i...

Sunday, March 28, 2010. Phrases You Hear at a Writers Conference. When I first became a teacher, I had to learn to speak education. Education is full of acronyms like SST, ESL, SACS, IEP, IDEA, and ILT (teachers, you know exactly what these mean). Last week, at the Mount Hermon Writers Conference, I realized that writers have another language, too. Rather than acronyms, it's chalk full of phrases you hear only amonng writers. I have been home for a week now, and I miss the following phrases:. To answer q...

If your husband is a true fan of any sports team, you know what it's like to fall victim to a bad season. When the rankings come out at the beginning of the year, do you anxiously check to see what kind of man you will be living with for the following months? If yes, I feel your pain, sister. I have a plan. It's a rebuilding year.". Scan blogs and loc...
