Cannot Hide

As an agronomist for over fifteen years, I commonly visited with men alone. Often times I would stop by a ranch or farm, and the farmer or hired man would be the only one around. I took each situation professionally and responsibly, being careful to not create any opportunity for doubt or suspicion by their... Continue Reading →

He Answers

I prayed:       God thank you for answering my prayers and bringing me back to you. Thanks most importantly for being patient with me! As I’m trying to learn how to be the woman you want and made me to be, I know I need to pray not only for myself, but for my boyfriend,... Continue Reading →

Patience

I prayed:       God, Pastor asked me to lead Bible study tonight, but you know I haven’t prayed in a while. I haven’t even read the Bible in weeks. I am not qualified to lead a Bible study right now. I am human. I will mess up your message, but you can do anything. So please,... Continue Reading →

Being raised Catholic, I believed either way I’d go to hell, but if I chose divorce, I could watch my baby girl grow up. So... Continue Reading →

He Made It!

After Dad’s death, I began to remember all the stories he told us of when he was young.  He was ornery, started fights, drank, smoked, had pornography, threw a screwdriver at his brothers, dropped a flower pot off the roof onto my uncle’s head…a real rebel. When I thought of all this, my grief started... Continue Reading →

The Beginning

When I began to see prayers answered, and hear God's voice, I realized he was protecting and guiding me long before I knew he was close. So that's where I am starting, at the very beginning. In 1995, I was 15 years old. I had a dad who was fun when he drank...not so much... Continue Reading →
