Heart Made Whole
My god-brother sent this old picture to me. It brings back so many memories. I was immediately reminded of what I was going through during this time. Though you see a silly smile…there was so much more going on behind it. . . It was my senior year of high school just before my 18th…

2401 Gideon
When I was six years old my parents bought a nice blue tri-level house just a block away from the Zion Police Department. It over looked a beautiful golf course and a public library. At first, I was more fascinated with fact that we were close to the police station than with the brand spanking new home.…

Faith Like Little Children
“… unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.” – Matthew 18:3 . . “If you had the power to do anything you wanted, what would it be?” was the icebreaker question for children’s church last Sunday.

Perfect Peace
“You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.” ~Isaiah 26:3~ After traveling on a Boeing 737, for over three hours, I arrived safely and soundly to Phoenix, Arizona.

After over 11 years of being committed to you, thankfulness & gratefulness flows from my heart. You’ve taught me how to be a leader, innovator, professional, results driven, and a team player.

Just Saying No Because God said So…
My spiritual father used to always say, we live in a microwave oven and Burger King type of world. We want everything fast and “our way.” We all have our personal goals, career goals, and spiritual goals which are great to have, but what’s most important is knowing how to prioritize them.

3 Reasons Why Marriage is Still “A Thing” For Us
We were in our early 20s when we decided to tie the knot 9 years ago. We had tons of people giving us the inevitable unsolicited advice. “Keep God in the center of your marriage” , “Keep a great love life” and “Communication is the key to a successful marriage” are just a few statements that I can remember.…

Time or Money: Do We Really Have to Choose What’s More Important?????
“What’s more important time or money?” was an interesting question I read that posted in a Facebook status. The person who wrote the post was specifically referring to sacrificing time with family and friends in order to work more hours. Well, from reading responses to that question I learned that it’s all about perspective. A…

Moving Forward Peacefully After This Contentious Presidential Race
I woke up this morning in a very peaceful state. I’m not shocked or upset about the election results. I’m just grateful for the President Obama administration. Under his so called “bad” administration my husband and I found great jobs, were able purchase homes & cars, are comfortably raising our four beautiful children. We feel…
