Looking Ahead to 2021
If you could use just one word to describe 2020, what would that word be? For me, it would be the theme word(s) I chose for 2020 without knowing what this year would bring. My words for 2020 were Stillness and Pause. (I couldn’t decide between the two words, so I...
A Remedy for Anxiety
Are you feeling anxious these days? I have to admit I’ve had my fair share of anxious thoughts this year. 2020 has definitely been challenging for all of us. Earlier this year during our safer-at-home months, I did a series of video devotions with mugs for our...
Feasting on God’s Word
I finally gave in last week and bought a bird feeder. I have lots of birds in my backyard, and even had a new family with little “birdlets” this past spring. The cats and I loved watching them come up on the patio and peck for food. Last week I decided it was time...

Resting in the Sovereignty of God
Does your life seem out of control and you’re wondering why circumstances are what they are? We're probably all feeling that life is out of control in the midst of the ongoing coronavirus. We're dealing with school closings, churches going online for services,...
The Challenge of Leading a Women’s Ministry
I was recently asked, "What is the hardest part of leading a Women’s Ministry?" It didn’t take me long to answer: “Finding a common ground that women from all ages and stages of life would want to be part of.” My church is a multi-generational church, which is a...
