It might sound a little strange, but I think a lot about heaven and what it will be like. I can’t even wrap my mind around it, but I know the joy I experience when I spend time in His presence… and to experience joy like that for eternity- well, that’s going to be nothing short of AMAZING!! But you know what else I’ve been thinking about? How desperately I want EVERYONE I know to experience that same joy.
we’re glory gazin’ chowing down on Chick-fil-a the sky- our dessert! Having two teenage daughters is… interesting. I never quite know what to expect. One minute they are screaming at each other, the next minute they are hysterically laughing together. It is an adventure, for sure! The other day, I picked the girls up early […]

lost in wonder we sat under a tree- pensively waiting thoughtfully gazing we were both praising the Lord- and anticipating the silent display a heavenly array we beheld a glorious sight while the world kept on spinning the two of us grinning- we watched Him turn day into night One evening last week, I […]
The moment I seek and desire His presence- I find He is near Seek the LORD while he may be found; call on him while he is near. Isaiah 55:6 Twilight is my favorite time of day. It is a time of two-fold expectation for me- expecting to see something beautiful in the sky, and […]
Before the sun sets waiting for the afterglow watching for nightfall mountains like oceans undulating clouds like waves a twilight delight playing hide and seek sunlight slips behind slivers of silver lined clouds 50 shades of blue the Blue Ridge Mountains aglow sun sings her swan song not a single sound not a plane nor […]
For our God is a consuming fire. Hebrews 12:29 I can become consumed with so many things… What am I gonna make for dinner?! Do my girls have clean clothes? Did I remember to get those snacks from the store for their lunch? What am I gonna wear today? What doesn’t make me […]
