Praying for Your Teen Sons

Are you looking for a way to connect with your teen son? Have you ever considered that one of the most important ways is by choosing to pray for him? Yes, to pray for him…and maybe even with him. Oh, I know you have heard it so many times, and I’m sure many of you are praying for your sons, but let me remind you again because it is so important and shouldn’t be taken lightly! Pray! Pray! And pray some more for your teen sons! They are living in a culture that can and will eat them alive if…

Confession of My {Sometimes} Failure as a Mom

I’ve never been one to hold back on sharing about my short-comings. In real life, I wear my heart on my sleeve. And I am proud to do so, if it gives all glory to God. Even so, it took me years before I realized that when people ask, “How are you doing?” they don’t really want the play-by-play answer of the ups and downs of your life.  Once I became clued in, I learned to force the pat answer, “Fine, thank you!” out of my mouth, even if I wanted to gag on my own words.

But even on the bad days (when nothing goes right – your parents fight, your dog runs away, your best friend ignores you, and you fail your math quiz), God is still with you and still loves you! This passage got me thinking. Sometimes we are slow…

Pop-Up Ads

A few years ago, it seemed as if pop-up ads appeared overnight on every website I visited.  I would open my browser and the screen would get overrun with ads for insert-product-of-your-choice. When visiting certain sites, I could almost guarantee a Netflix or screen saver ad would come up. Thankfully, my husband knows a thing or two about computers, and he was able to adjust my internet settings to block those annoying ads. On occasion, one or two still gets through the filter, but they are nowhere near as common as before. Recently I was thinking about the similarities between…
