I love angels. I have always believed in angels and can feel their presence in my life. Heavenly angels and earthly ones who find themselves on a mission of comfort, kindness or reassurance. A whisper on the wind, a whiff of fragrance, a glint in the moonlight, a stray furry friend — angels sometimes hide […]
Found this cool soundtrack on Soundcloud! I have a very dear friend who recently turned me on to an app call Calm. I am making this ten minute daily mediation a part of my morning practice. And I am so grateful to her for sharing this with me. This app, I have learned, is the […]
Each morning I make an effort to spend some time in prayer and mediation. There are a number of books I pull from to get my day started, each speaking to a part of me. Jesus Calling, Bible in A Year, Daily Gratitude and Book of Awakening, just to name a few. This morning I […]

A man’s kiss is his signature. Mae West I shot this photo of my husband and me on our honeymoon in Italy. This was taken in a park in Venice. I have always loved shadows and I take a photo of my husband and I kissing like this everywhere we go. Isn’t it romantic?!
Since the beginning of the year I have started my journey into understanding the Grace afforded us by God. In Second Corinthians 12, we find Paul pleading with God to take away his weakness yet God responds to him saying, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” God […]
Pretty big topic! Relationships is defined as the way in which two or more concepts, objects, or people are connected, or the state of being connected. Reading this I would venture to guess you didn’t well up with any kind of emotion – positive or negative. But you sit with the word, you conjure the […]
“I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: ‘We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.’…I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough […]
