Women of Joy, 2012, a Weekend to Remember

This past weekend I had the blessing of attending a Women of Joy conference.  It was such a great experience that I felt I need to blog about it.

Fighting Satan

Over the past couple of years something disheartening as occurred in my life-- I lost myself.  I floundered around, desperately trying to fight my way back into existence and it's the biggest uphill battled I've faced.

Getting Crafty

The kids are back in school, so I found a little time to indulge in one of my hobbies.  I love making custom cards for people for special occasions.  I keep telling myself that I should make a bunch of cards up and then when an occasion comes along, I will simply grab one and send it along to whomever.  The trouble with that is, I like the card to be special and custom made just for the person to whom it's going.

Chick-fil-A -- You Make Me Sad

I am sad today.  As a Christian, in America, I scroll through articles, Tweets and Facebook posts about the record sales at Chick-fil-A yesterday and I cringe.  It's a sad thought that hatred and bigotry are the Face of Christianity today.  That they are held up as a beacons of family and moral values.

Just Show Up

Have you ever experienced a day in which you oversleep? Curiously, instead of feeling rested after having extra sleep, you feel a step behind? I think we all have days like this. Every decision seems more difficult that it should; people get on our nerves more than usual.
