All your children will be taught by the LORD, and great will be their peace. Isaiah 54:13 (NLT) For the past two weeks, this scripture has been bubbling up in my heart each time I pray for the little ones. I declare it over them with all my heart. My greatest desire is that they […]

Once upon a time, a very old woman conceived and bore a child for the first time (Genesis 21) by faith. Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, […]

Lately, I have been learning how to trust God and pray instead of worrying. Two days after a message in church about the importance of turning our worries/heart desires into prayer points, my family went through a minor gas fire incident at home. I captured the incident in a poem titled Flames and Fury. After […]
Less than two weeks after the little one started attending daycare, I was told he would be moved to another class because his motor skills were advanced for the beginners class and it was time for him to start feeding himself. Well, I wasn’t too excited about the news. The little one was just beginning […]
When I realized joining the military was something, my son wanted for his own life, I began to relax and God was then able to work on my heart. It was revealed to me in my time with God that I was perhaps praying against God’s will for my son’s life.
This past weekend, I visited a sister-friend who gave birth to a baby boy three weeks ago. She shared her concern about raising a child in this cold/evil world. I had the same fear and concern in July, so I could relate. We discussed the fact that our generation is faced with raising children in a more complex world compared to generations before us.
