It's an amazing, sunny, spring morning here today. The birds are singing and my dogs are going crazy at all the singing. Both of my morning devotionals today have me charged with the challenge of living each day with intent. How often do I allow the day to take control of me and find myself settling for less ? How much sweeter would today be if I paid attention to the details with intention. To really live today with the intent to not only make the most of it, but to truly, step back and live the words that I've meditated on this morning. ... Keep Reading
God’s Not in a Box, Why are YOU ?
Have you ever felt frustrated to let go and dare to pursue big dreams? I've raised my boys telling them and believing it, with all my heart, that God has big plans and a purpose for their lives. Sometimes, I just forget to let go and and allow God to work big plans in my life. In this season of life, I feel God telling me to not only trust Him, but have the confidence in Him to shine who He has created me to be. God gives us all gifts and talents and we were made to use them to glorify Him. He is the one who equips us and gives us our ... Keep Reading
It’s All About Love
One of my absolute favorite Christian music artists is Steven Curtis Chapman. Several years back he had a popular song entitled, "All About Love".

Instead of loving our fellow man and serving freely as Jesus showed us through His example. We take the reigns in our own hands and pick and choose who is worthy of respect. Because when we show respect that is an act of love. It's taken me my entire life to try to understand it and ... Keep Reading
My New Running Buddy
Judge our Standard Poodle puppy is now 9 months old. He is such a love of a dog and is also a giant, just like his name sake Aaron Judge of the New York Yankees. Even though he looks fully grown at fifty seven pounds of curl and fluff, he is definitely still very much a puppy. My goal is to train him to run with me and we have already had some great adventures. Now if I can just keep him from knocking me onto my bottom. We ran just a little under five miles this morning and I'm pleased to say that this old lady tired the massive pup out ... Keep Reading
Spring Has Arrived
Spring is such an exciting time. Don't get me wrong, I do love winter, but by the end of the season, I am ready to move on and enjoy what is to follow. As the snow melts away, we start to see those little signs of new life. Just today, as I started picking up sticks scattered across our lawn, I noticed hosta poking out of the ground. Then, while on my run, I had the chance to rescue a Woolly Bear Caterpillar, who was making his way across the middle of the road. The days are getting a little longer and the air has the smell and feel of ... Keep Reading
