Remembering Our Spouses Chose Us as Adults
For the most part, our family members didn't get to choose us. They love us because we are their child, sibling, parent, niece, aunt, or cousin. They may LOVE who we are, but the connection was one that was made for them. It's so important to remember that our spouse chooses us as an adult [...]
Are You Thinking it’s Too Late?

Jesus Felt BIG EMOTIONS and Why We Should, Too
Jesus Felt BIG EMOTIONS and Why We Should, Too! If you grew up in a home where BIG EMOTIONS were not tolerated, were belittled, punished, or squelched, you may have trouble FEELING YOUR FEELINGS as an adult. You may have been taught to not be so emotional. Or you may have been taught by the [...]

Peace is Always Available, Will You Choose it?
PEACE is ALWAYS AVAILABLE, Will You CHOOSE It? Jesus said "Peace I leave with you; MY peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do NOT let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful." John 14:27 If Jesus said He ALREADY gave us HIS peace, that [...]
We Are Called to Love, Not Judge
We are called to LOVE, not JUDGE. Period. Whenever we find ourselves getting frustrated with someone, it's a clear sign that we've momentarily stepped OUT OF THE LOVE ZONE and into the JUDGMENT ZONE. And the reason it feels so irksome is because it was never how we were created to exist. God IS LOVE. [...]
Want to Mother From a Place of Peace and Calm Every Day?
Want to mother from a place of PEACE and CALM every day? I can't think of any other calling in this life that requires us to juggle the constant paradoxical flood of emotions other than being a mother. From the very first moment that we hear of our child's mere existence, they are the first [...]
