I’m sharing a devotion over at Proverbs 31 Ministries today. I wanted to share this with you too. Here’s what I want you to know: You are worth more!
As a little girl, I never felt I was worth very much.
I always felt I wasn’t pretty enough, smart enough or good enough. I sensed my parents tolerated me but certainly didn’t delight in me. Read more…
Did you know the devil wants to sneak up on you? He prowls around like a lion just looking for the right opportunity.

Hi Friends. I’ll be honest. I received so many Christmas emails in December, I decided to give you a break from mine. My inbox just about made me break out in hives. Just in case you felt the same, I spared you one less email. But now I’m back! I’ve missed you! I hope today’s blog will get you excited about what 2018 holds! Read more…
Today’s blog is short and sweet. Oh so sweet.
Last weekend I spoke in Palmer, Iowa, surrounded by wheat fields, cornfields, and soybean fields.
Combines worked through the night.
Lights beaming.
Engines roaring.
Men working.
Bringing in the last of the late harvest.
On Saturday, we experienced a harvest of a different kind. Read more…
I want to see God today. Don’t you? What I’ve discovered is that there is nothing that will shut my eyes to seeing God’s presence and working in my life than ingratitude.
