I had a blog reader ask me about our decision to drop our insurance and join CHM (Christian Healthcare Ministries). I generally don’t want to discuss products or services or anything like that on this blog… but after typing out the story of how/why we made that choice, I realized that there was some testimony …
Wednesday night I blogged about one verse that’s been on my mind a lot lately. The other one I mentioned is this: The righteous shall live by faith. I cannot count the number of times I’ve heard or read that verse, but only recently have I actually thought about the nitty-gritty of what that actually …
This year continues to be a strange season of answered prayers and waiting, of wandering and closeness. Of miracles and disappointments. Nothing in life (other than God) seems consistent, least of all me. Unfortunately, the overtime I have put in at work lately has gotten in the way of my blogging… but I hope that …
It’s been quite a month. The school year ended, one family member survived a very bad heart attack, other family came to visit, babies were born, I made a huge mistake at work, my daughter took Driver’s Ed, etc. and so forth. But I do have a little something I want to share… one specific …
Today, it’s my turn over on Storm Stories. Here is my story…____________________________________________ The Lord is not done blessing you yet,” she said.

The other day, I was praying about a number of issues in my life, and I felt like I was going round in circles again. I said, “Lord, I don’t want to go back to this place of confusion! The devil is the author of confusion, not You. What do I do?” I then rebuked …
How many of you are holding on to something that God has shown you, or promised you? I’m guessing that many of you are… which means you know some of where we’re at right now. Yes, we’re here in Ohio, but God hasn’t given us a house yet. I must be totally honest and say …
This isn’t a typical Thanksgiving post… yet thankfulness is a big part of it, prompting me to post what probably should have been posted a week or two ago. Have you ever felt like the Israelites, wandering around in the desert for years? You just feel like you’re going in circles, with no clear idea …
This is for anyone who’s ever prayed that God would use them more. As some of you already know and most of you can probably guess… my husband and I are among the thousands (or millions) who are going through financially difficult times. God is showing me so much, though, that I can’t find it …
My father-in-law, who was my pastor at the time, once told his church something that many of us had never thought of. He asked us how many times do we wake up in the morning with a song… or a portion of a song… running through our minds? The answer for me was ‘almost every …
