Where Did The Time Go?
We read all the baby books, we survived sleepless nights, cutting teeth, diaper blow-outs, and tantrums. Before we blinked our toddlers were big kids, with big teeth, and lanky limbs, learning to read and ride bikes. We survived puberty and teenage trials and learning so many new skills: like driving, applying for jobs and colleges, [...]
What if it all makes perfect sense?
What if all of it makes perfect sense? A couple of phrases that I teach my clients that have helped me so much over the years are “It makes perfect sense” & “Of course I’m feeling ______.” Things in life rarely go as we’ve planned. Especially when it depends upon other people. But what if [...]

When someone wrongs us, have we been wronged? Or can we dig a little deeper and see how we have actually been "righted"? 1 Cor. 4,5 teaches that "Love, (the God kind of love that now resides inside of us) *parentheses mine* is longsuffering and kind (wow, that's a challenge to still be kind while [...]

We think _________________ is going to be _______________! You can fill in the blank, I'm sure. Whether it's the occupation you completed/endured [...]
