The Sweetness of Goodbye

Hello Dear Friends,

Many of us have "launched" a child this fall. Our oldest son, Logan, returned to college this week. It's all good, but we miss him so!

Here's the link to my most recent post at Guideposts:

Putting Trust in the Empty Places

Hello Friends,

The end of August - how did we get here?

Today I'd like to share a post about something that happened earlier in the summer - about an unexpected circumstance, loss, and how we learned to place trust in the empty spaces.

Here's the link at Guideposts:

Fighting Fear

Good Morning!

In today's post, a bedtime moment with Isaiah causes me to consider my own fears - and how to fight them.

Winning the War of Worry

Hello Friends,

Have you ever been stuck in a pattern of worry? Lately, my thoughts have been running wild. But the Lord asks me to take just one day at a time, and when I obey, I find peace and joy.
