faith, clarity and encouragement for confusing times
Most of us were just going along living life when 2020 hit. It seems now, we were maybe even a bit unprepared to face such a battle.These are unusual times. (Yeah, that is an understatement!) We have not experienced the intensity and relentless onslaught in our minds as we have this year, which is why …
God is bringing us full-circle today. I don’t know if you remember when we started connecting on a regular basis just over a year ago? The first email I sent was based on Proverbs 4 and stressed the importance of guarding our hearts in these uncertain times. I feel like God has really worked with …
Good morning, friends! I’m excited to share with you today and to hear the Father’s heart together. As I mentioned last week, I’m sensing God has some specific, strategic things for us this month. I’m not sure why this month is different, but if your life is anything like mine, everything since the holidays is …
I’m pretty sure I have lived most of my life frustrated. Angry even, if I’m really honest. Perhaps this is the “curse” of the creative and the called. I know many of you get this!

This past year has taken more out of us than we may realize. Many of us are emotionally drained, spiritually depleted and running on fumes. Pandemic fatigue is a real thing. And it is starting to take its toll, eon all of us. Yet, I can sense God has something better in mind. He wants …
Do you ever just get a song stuck in your head? I do. A lot. I remember one time when I had surgery, we went to see the Les Mis movie the day before since I was going to be recuperating for a bit. Needless to say, for the next three drug-induced days, my brain …
I wrote this post years ago, but God reminded me of it this morning. This year has brought so many challenges and thrown many of us into a tailspin. I thought this was a good reminder that no matter what is lost or how difficult seasons are, God is the great Restorer. His intent for …
Friends, This word has been sitting in my spirit for a few months, and I feel like today there is an important meaning for us. God has given each of us a unique and specific purpose. That’s why we are on the planet. That’s why we are in the kingdom. Because he has a plan …
