Just words...For those who were not there...I shared a bit of my testimony and for a moment, I cried...but only for a moment...here's what God placed on my heart a few minutes ago... This day...I officially receive my title as a Prodigal Mama...be blessed and share if you feel led. I've considered my tears yesterday... Continue Reading →
An Ear to Listen
I had no reservations about revealing my past before that moment in class yesterday. Perhaps it was hearing words I'd never written before...I'd never even thought of before sent me to a place I hadn't visited either. I remembered. I revealed my disconnection with self...why I was drawn to being "needed" by others...why it was... Continue Reading →
It was Never Rejection
I cried in class today. I hadn't planned to do so. I didn't even cry when writing the piece I was required to read aloud. The assignment was to tell our story. As a writer I almost did the paper before even reading the assigned chapters because I thought it would be that easy. I mean... Continue Reading →
Fix that Door and Move On!
Laughter is my best medicine. I must find the funny in everything to function and no, I'm not mental! So...basically, I planned to go to bowling the other day...was dressed and for a change would have actually been on time (the Lord is yet working on me in this area) Anyway...I go to open the door to leave and there...

Privilege of the Pause
Just more random thoughts...of course unedited 😁 I'm convinced the one problem, if it could be called that, with being a visionary is finding the off switch in my mind or perhaps it is as simple as locating an appropriate landing spot for dreams to be born. As if the recording device in my brain... Continue Reading →
Gated but still not protected
I hadn't planned to write this...to share this...I hate that I'm now even aware of this at all, but this headline met my gaze any way: 4 Children Stabbed to Death in Memphis, Mother in Custody I saw the pictures taken...one showing the young lady allegedly responsible for the heinous crime as "normal" and the...

Just Rest
Stop. Pause. Focus. Slow Down. Listen. For at least three weeks now, it seems that those words are the directions that I have been given. Yet, I haven’t truly understood or embraced any of them fully until this moment. suppose I should have gotten a clue when my student advisor said in our meeting, “I... Continue Reading →
Funny thing…Love
Heavenly Father, I come thanking You for Your discipline...I'd be lying if I said I liked it...You know my heart so that's pointless. Father, help me to take the advice I so readily give others...Help me to listen and do what You want. I don't want to keep taking the same tests over and... Continue Reading →
Be ready or Get Left Behind
I had to teach my daughter an important lesson about timing this morning. When you're not ready, you get left behind! Now Kayla had been a hard sleeper since birth so I'm not surprised by her innate delays every morning...surprised no...annoyed YES!!! I used to consider it a blessing she slept so hard though...I could... Continue Reading →
In the mean time
Disclaimer: This is some random thought...very unedited...just came to me in about ten minutes...but words have always soothed my spirit so I'm not sure if this is an essay, spoken word, but it just is... I've been considered gullible for a long time. I'm sort of ashamed to admit that now. I mean as a... Continue Reading →
