In November we set aside time to be thankful. This requires reflection. Personally I’m not a fan of self-analysis to discover my feelings. In counseling, I understand the importance of doing so for therapeutic purposes. Yet I tend to be driven more by logic and just want my emotions to stay in their box whereContinue reading “The Heart of the Matter”

How to Inspire When Uninspired
I endeavor to create an article for my blog, “Author Inspirations,” at least once a month. In October, I would ask myself “What inspiration do I have right now?” A thought or two might flitter across my consciousness, but nothing I could latch on to. That ball effectively dropped as the month expired, I’m leftContinue reading “How to Inspire When Uninspired”
What Are You Waiting For?
There’s a lesson that The Holy Spirit keeps returning to me over this past month. Let me first confess that the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22&23) that I most have to strive for is patience. Often, if I am not moving forward I become apprehensive. My husband bought me a spa pamper session forContinue reading “What Are You Waiting For?”
Share the Glow
Recently I got to catch up with a friend who I had not seen in a while. As a Christian counselor, I knew that she carries a lot of people’s stories and how heavy that can be. She expressed how she wished she could have more people in her life who lived their faith everyContinue reading “Share the Glow”
The Favorite Child
Anyone who has more than one child knows how they can become jealous of each other. Often I would ask my littles which of two meals they would like for dinner. Inevitably one would choose one and the other the second. I would ultimately have to make the decision and it would sometimes result inContinue reading “The Favorite Child”
The Hands of My Father
Since my father’s passing I have not been sure what Father’s Day will hold for me as far as my experience. Although, now that I think about it, I’ve never quite been sure what to do with this “holiday.” The circumstances of my broken family meant that I spent most of my life separated fromContinue reading “The Hands of My Father”
Spiritual Mail Carriers
Oftentimes the Lord uses His people to carry His words to others. Either to someone far from Him spiritually, or who are in a circumstance where they are not open to hearing from Him directly. Perhaps it may also be that the Lord knows certain people who can get across to others with a voiceContinue reading “Spiritual Mail Carriers”
3 Ways to Interpret the Signs
There is a road that I travel often which has two advisory signs one after the other. The first is to let the driver know they are approaching a church. The next warns of a side street intersection and says CAUTION. As I was driving this road one day, I read the signs in successionContinue reading “3 Ways to Interpret the Signs”
The Godhead
The idea of the Trinity is a difficult concept to grasp, and therefore explain. As Christians we have a monotheistic faith in that there is one God. However, when we break it down into the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, it seems like a polytheistic belief. How does one express how they areContinue reading “The Godhead”
When to Say When
Let’s be honest. At the restaurant, when the waiter says those two words “say when” we have all thought let’s see how far I can take this. It’s a test of limits between how much we really need to be satisfied, and how much they are willing to dish out. Sometimes in our pursuit ofContinue reading “When to Say When”
