HOME


When we leave home, we need to be ready to find that home is not where we thought it was – in the comfy levels of security to which we easily become addicted. We must be willing to accept that home is some place entirely new to us, that our longing has led us away so that when we return home, we realize that it is not home at all. - Jeff Goins

frustrated!

I hate that everything that is so HUGE in my heart can't come out on paper.
I hate that I don't communicate as well as I think I do.

I'm ready...

I was sitting there carefully reviewing each picture. Each picture that had a face that told a heartbreaking true story. They were stories of hopeless days and sleepless nights.
I am not the same. How can I be? I am not looking back. It's time to stop talking and move. Move my passion into reality. I can't do it without the Lord's help and guidance. It's a big mountain...yes. He will be glorified. And as I sit here with tears rolling down, again I see each face. I'm coming...I'm ready.

If we are free...

"It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by the yoke of slavery." Galatians 5:1


"Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom."
2 Corinthians 3:7

I love answered prayers....

Scary times at Brina's...

So Allie and I loaded up the Montero and headed to Cowtown for the afternoon. Allie was having a play date with Ellie and I with Brina. So when we pull into the 76137...Allie could hardly wait to get out and see Ellie. As I walk in the house...Allie immediately runs towards the back door to hang with Ellie. As Im getting them situated and watching the two get reacquainted...I feel what seems like thousands of tingles on my toes. I look down and there are literally HUNDREDS of fire ants all over my feet. I start to FREAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I start to run around like a mad woman and if the neighbors could only see...it would probably look like I was doing some weird Ethiopian rain dance...crazy. Allie looked at me like I was an idiot and as I sit here nursing my toes with Neosporin...I feel like one.
