The past few months have been quite eventful. We moved, which was a big change for us. I have been struggling with usual health conditions, and was hoping to get a promising new medical therapy, but sadly haven’t been able to.  So much has happened. About two months ago, I received a call from my…

A while ago I was on my way to Bible study when my daughter put on the song ‘Above All’, by Michael W. Smith. As the song was playing, I was taken back to a memory during her childhood, when on a weekend she and her sister were on a visit to their dad’s house.…

I had to take my mom to the doctor on Saturday. Now most people would not believe this to be true. In fact, most of my crazy life is too unbelievable to believe. I have a friend who lost a husband and loves the Lord. She is someone I can confide in about some of…
