I blog not because I have all the answers (or any answers for that matter), but because I care enough to share my stories in hopes that others can also find hope, peace, truth and perhaps a little humor along the way.

But I also know love, forgiveness, understanding, unspeakable joy, and have learned how to walk victoriously – even in the midst of life’s struggles! I hope you’ll join me as I unwrap adventures in the wonderful world of blogging! ...

Our doubts express a yearning to be sure of what-and who-we trust. When our questions are answered by trust, faith is fed and our doubts transform into deeper belief that pushes us toward a decision. 1. When we address doubt head-on our...

Depending on God amid the noise, confusion, and troubles around you lands on a solid ground in Him and there is nothing in this world that can defeat you or take away your peace. To affirm God’s goodness amidst difficult times is as much an act of worship as it is a sign of integrity.
