sing in faith.
sometimes, moments in life give us a glimpse of heaven. joy bursts through every fiber of our earthly being and it’s not enough to stumble over words in order to explain how He’s provided or come through in a moment of need. sometimes, situations around us just overwhelm. sickness, family issues, debt, insecurities, loss of […]
prayer.
December 2, 2010
Over the past few weeks, one of the constants getting me through has been the knowledge of a few prayer warriors approaching the throne on my behalf.

March 28, 2010
“To give birth is incredible. To foster a child is divine.” A foster mom told me this after a brief freak-out.

February 10, 2010
I wasn’t expecting it to hurt. I was in the shower when God told me. I knew we were about to go through one of the toughest things we experienced in our marriage. And I was right. Well, God was right. Russ came home and said the words I knew he was going to say. […]

January 30, 2010
About a week ago, I posted about Amos, an incredible little boy who needed to be reunited with his family. Since then, I have been introduced to countless precious faces reunited with their forever families. And then I heard of Ronel. I actually already knew who he was. Jamie Ivey posted a blog about him […]
