…In the Dance
Because I know there is a difference between publishing and promoting, I just wanted to take time out to promote my short story before it is published. Currently, it is called The Perfect Tango Must End. The story takes course over a span of 7 days and tells about the spiritual warfare at work in … Continue reading …In the Dance
…In the Treasure Chest
"Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." … Continue reading …In the Treasure Chest
…In the Brokenness
I've always been fascinated by the shattered glass look- how something so broken, shattered, jagged and sharp could be so...beautiful...and useful. So many times, I've lost track of time in a store, just staring at one of these beautiful creations. Each time, always in awe, trying to figure it out- how it came to be … Continue reading …In the Brokenness
…In The Opportunity
January 2015, the last wheel had fallen off my cart of independence, and my son and I were faced with that disappointing drive home to start over. You know the one- the "I've got to move back in with my [mom, dad, parents or whoever] again". Several months of disappointments and bad news led up … Continue reading …In The Opportunity

There are so many things that come into play when being the only adult in the household responsible for everything that comes your … Continue reading Maintenance…in the Hallway
On the Toothpaste Aisle

Don't ask me how I did it because I could not have done it without the One who gives me strength- Jesus Christ. Though I didn't mind working for what I wanted, there were days when … Continue reading On the Toothpaste Aisle
As I Slept
Between Autumn of 2008 and Autumn of 2011, I lived in a big city in a particular area. This area was mind-boggling to me. It never made since to me how from one street to the next the row of houses would alternate between beautiful, well-kept historical districts where people jogged and walked their dogs … Continue reading As I Slept
Carousel
The Carousel Somewhere between the years of 2010 and 2014, I had come to realize that it would be selfish of me to always expect the sermon to be just what I need. Maybe someone else was in greater need. Maybe God was saying that I wasn't as bad off as I thought and just … Continue reading Carousel
After Service
Before my first apartment, I was in a duplex. It was drafty- chilly in winter and warm in summer. There probably wasn't much of any insulation in the walls or anywhere else. The floors were a charming reddish brown hardwood except in the one tiny restroom that was tiled and in the small kitchen where … Continue reading After Service
