Following His Path To Something Beautiful
I have a lot of dreams. Like a lot. And honestly, sometimes I get tired of them. Because a lot of times my dreams are of fires, and terrorist attacks, and storms, and floods… you know all the bad things. I have good dreams too, but bad dreams are alarming and leave me shaky. One [...]
Have you ever set out to do something but felt discouraged by not getting the results you wanted, or feared what was ahead? Maybe what lies ahead of you seems hopeless, and being strong and courageous . The other day we were on the boat with my parents, and my husband and I went fishing. [...]
Sometimes life can just bring you down with what goes on around you. It can leave you wondering how to rise above your circumstances. My daughter's friends, and my favorite person in the Bible (Ruth) taught me about that this week. I realized something was wrong with Olivia when I tried to send Charlie, her, [...]
Do you ever look at the world around you and think “What is going on right now?” Maybe justice doesn’t seem to prevail. Your circumstances dictate your behavior, and as much as you call out to God, you don’t feel like God is listening to your prayers, because you don’t see them being answered. Let's [...]

She is usually the go-with-the-flow child. The comfortable in most situations child. But when Olivia gets uncomfortable she comes and sits next to me.

So this is not a pony tale, or a story about a horse. But the story is kind of hilarious, as I couldn't stop laughing when I told my husband about it for the first time last night. I actually don't think I think I finished the story, so he will hear the end of [...]
This year I decided to do something that I have never wanted to do before. Plant flowers. I guess I didn't really decide to though. They were 2 potted hydrangeas and were supposed to go to one of my dearest friends, but she didn't have a place for them. She wanted me to take them [...]
I had a dream I have a lot of dreams. I had a bunch last night (none of them last night were good). But the dream I share about in my new post for Candidly Christian was a good dream, that I didn't want to end. As we come out of Mother's Day, and today [...]
This post is written by Jen Weant. You can read more of her story here. When they tell you becoming a parent changes everything, they are telling the truth! Almost 4 years ago, we welcomed our sweet little one into our family. After years of waiting expectantly, we adopted Parker and he has brought so [...]
