About Me

I love God and I love life. I enjoy loud spontaneous moments, but I also enjoy silence. It is in that silence that The Father's voice can clearly be heard.

Pennies from Heaven

I love to reflect on time and events and observe the hand of God in so many small but significant ways. Sometimes my life is just zipping by so fast that I don't always see the blessing until I am quiet and still. It is then that I realize that He always gives me exactly what I need, rather than simply what I thought I wanted.

Im like the grain of sand that begins as an irritation in the oyster shell. The oyster continually washes over it, making it smooth and more compatible. Then it changes from this jagged, useless 'thing' into a beautifully polished pearl. Im a LONG way from being a pearl, but I am happy that God is washing over some of my rough spots and smoothing them over.
