Well, it has been almost a year since I have written on this blog and what a year it has been. Life started happening and happening fast and so I decided to take a break from blogging for awhile. I have missed blogging and I find myself writing blog posts in my head and decided [...]

I received an email from a friend about my rant last week. She very kindly disagreed with some of the things that I had to say. I guess you can say we agree to disagree on politics and we rarely discuss them but she felt the need to respond to my post. She gave me [...]
It is comforting to know no matter where we are or what is going on in our lives, that God is still God. I have been so strongly reminded of that recently and because of that, there is peace in the midst of the storm. Love this new song by Avalon
