Books for the babes, blog for the Body!
Writing and publishing my own books was an exciting opportunity for me! Granted, I hired someone else to edit and format the finished products, but I learned many things I never really considered before, like how books are printed and that there are agents for writers, not only for singers and actors. In the process... Continue Reading →
When I was growing up I thought of God as a large cosmic man on a glowing throne looking down on us. I don't know how I came up with this idea, but I always imagined him watching me and saying, "I saw that! I saw that, too!" Because of this preconceived notion, I didn't... Continue Reading →
When I prayed asking the Lord to remove anything from my life that would keep me from growing closer to him, the answer sure didn't look like I thought it would. When a girlfriend and I walked around the local school praying for the children and her son, the answer sure didn't look like we... Continue Reading →
There has been quite a bit of time since my last blog post. For this one, I had to make absolutely sure I had the Lord's permission to share it. I believe he gave me his approval because God wants to comfort his people regarding their loved ones who are nearing death. When I experienced... Continue Reading →

Two well known, mighty men of God had only been to Nebraska one time. So when they felt led by the Lord to come speak again, Mom told my girlfriends and me right away. One of my friends and I made a quick decision. We both instantly felt we HAD to attend. As soon as... Continue Reading →
As an agronomist, I spent many summers in corn fields. One day the Lord showed me life is much like being in a corn field. One can look up, see the sky, and hear the wind of the Holy Spirit, but cannot feel him. One can only get a small breath every now and then.... Continue Reading →
I'm not going to lie. When I found out about my ex-husband's unfaithfulness, I was working as a part time housekeeper in the local hotel. Being alone all day while I worked created a playground for Satan in my mind. I would envision myself bumping into the "other woman" and being nice to her because... Continue Reading →
A while back God woke me up in the middle of the night. He told me to pray for my sister. I felt no fear or anxiety for her, just a very clear understanding to pray for her. There was even a slight urgency to his request. I remembered the sensation I felt from my... Continue Reading →
