We often find ourselves talking about our lives in seasons, or stages, or as chapters in a book. A few weeks ago one phase of life (student) came to an end. This weekend new phase will officially begin (professional). And here you have... the august in between ... A celebration of 31 years of marriage… Continue reading The August In Between

Running Away from My Prayers
Thursday morning my alarm went off at 6:30 a.m. and I had a decision to make... I had stayed up pretty late the night before hanging out with all the awesome women in my lifegroup and I had to decide whether sleep or a run would fill the next 30 minutes of my time. In once sense,… Continue reading Running Away from My Prayers

But when yesterday was going on about a week straight, I was ready for the rain to be done. … Continue reading Two Pink Umbrellas

A Hymn… When morning gilds the sky, My heart awaking cries: May Jesus Christ be praised!

Please, Jesus.
For the broken…. He was broken. For the hurting… He was hurt. For the despised… He was despised. For our wounds… He was wounded. Because we are dead… He died. Because He lives… we too can live. Oh Jesus, please come soon!
