Recently, I accepted the fact that I was not yet reaching my intended goal and needed to pivot this season and that pivot led to yet another pivot and I feel GREAT about it! Why? Because that is the POWER of the PIVOT!!! When things don't seem to be going as "planned" don’t make it [...]

The Semi-Empty Nest. What’s a Mom to Do?
Do you remember the days when your child moved in and out of wanting to still be a baby and wanting to be a big kid? Sometimes they wanted to crawl up and snuggle you or get your loving care when they got a boo-boo and at times they wanted to begin to take care [...]
You are Birthing a New Version of YOU!
If you’re a mama in a postpartum season, keep pampering yourself well, just like you tried to during pregnancy. You have just birthed a baby, but now this first year you are birthing a new mama. And even if your baby is not your first child, you have never been THIS version of you and [...]
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.

How Do We View Conflict?
I'm thinking of this concept as it applies to marriage, but it can be a good way to view any relationship in our lives. The enemy loves division and works to influence the separation of any godly union, whether between spouses, parents and children, siblings, friends, or co-workers. If he can succeed at getting us [...]
Tips For Enjoying Christmas During Estrangement
The Word of God IS God!
There's a big difference between "knowing" someone from afar and knowing them intimately, right? You have the ability to know your spouse, children, family, and friends because you have spent time in their actual presence, not just seeing a pic of them on the red carpet. You have spent time cultivating a relationship with them [...]
Thankful IN it all!
See this girl right here? I'm really proud of her! This is me standing backstage watching worship in a hidden hallway completely alone unaware the cameraman walked by. I was spending time thanking God before I stepped on a stage to share my marriage restoration testimony. It took courage, vulnerability, and honesty. It took pressing [...]
