A new year is approaching. May I encourage you to have a Bible reading plan for 2026? Ok… I know some of the struggles for reading the Bible with chronic illness: brain fog, concentration issues, physically holding the Bible or phone, inability to journal, etc. It is difficult to overcome these things. I am still…

Yesterday, we had a game of jeopardy at the end of our study on Romans in my Life Group class. It quickly showed me that I need to study Romans more. 🙂 It made me think about studying Scripture even more and in different ways. It has been awhile since I could memorize Scripture easily.…

Yesterday, as I sat in the “cry room” to watch our church Christmas program, I may have grown thoughtful. You see, I was in the cry room as we were expecting a crowd. Crowds and my immune system do not mix. It is important to be present. I was there, just a bit of an…

YAWN! Monday after time change just hits differently. This year, I even actually rested that extra hour. Yet, this morning is a tired morning. I came to our God a bit empty today. Our Lord is loving and kind. He is full of mercy, tender mercy. I call on Him and He will help me…

Chronic illness is an up and down journey of victories and disappointments. Two steps forward and one step back. How do you handle the disappointment? Psalm 9:10, “10  And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: For thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.” In the midst of it…
