I want her to cling to the Christ she sees in me.

Life with a Tween Girl

By

Walking into her room told the tale of our tween age / middle age angst. I’m in a season of letting go. I want spare, clean . . . space. She seems to thrive on clutter. I’ve developed a reverence for time that makes it sacred. And she, well she’s barely aware of it. Time is for wasting and there are never enough hours for sleep. She, of the Taylor Swift generation, could sleep all day. She of the rolling eyes and slumped shoulder attitude. It’s hard to know how to reach her. She’s sensitive and fragile and everything in…

Pray. Breathe. Recite.

Pray. Breathe. Recite.

It was one of those mornings. I was running late, my hair was frizzy from the rain and awful humidity by just 8:45am, and the voice message I received wasn’t a good one. I was already disappointing someone, I could tell. Sigh.  It was a rough morning, and I could tell the day wasn’t going to get any better. I hated walking into this building, working in this space; this building, it’s where my attitude was negative, the Lord felt distant, and some of the people, well, they weren’t my favorite (just sayin’).

Did You Make a New Year’s Resolution?

By

Well, 2015 has arrived! Praise God! Hopefully, you spent the first part of this New Year with family or friends and enjoyed yourself greatly. But now comes the point in the year in which people ask “Did you make New Year’s resolutions? Are you still keeping them?” For a while I pondered what resolutions I should make. To live a more healthy lifestyle in order to honor the body God has given me? To invest more in relationships with those around me and share Christ’s love with those who don’t yet know it?
