Don’t Go on a Diet
Gained a few pounds? Losing some confidence? Or maybe there’s just a few bad habits and a little extra flab you’d like to nix. I can help with that. And odds are, my approach will be easier than you think (and likely easier on your wallet.) When it comes to diet, where do you even begin? I mean who doesn’t love talking about food? Since it’s almost impossible to get down to the very basis of our diet, we will be taking this one step at a time. Which is ok because in order for something to stick, you need to build up the right habits. You need to start…

Run to the House
“Ugh, what is the pastor going to say? What is everyone going to think? What if they call us out in front of everyone?” These were some of the thoughts that ran through mine and my husband’s heads as we made the long drive to church. Our stomachs turned with nervousness. Our hearts were racing. I had grown up in church. Why did I feel this way? It was February when God told me to go back to church. Having one reason or excuse after the other, I was lucky if I even watched it online. God had been patient with me, but by the time June came along, He…

I had been healthy for 25 years prior. My pregnancy was uncomplicated and full term. My labor and delivery were brief and easy. But I didn’t know until four days later that there had been an accident with the epidural. While still in the hospital, I began experiencing headaches, something I had never dealt with much before. Upon arriving home, they were so excruciating, I couldn’t even think straight. My gynecologist instructed me…

Three Lessons I Learned in My Trial
“Take it, Jesus. Just take it.” These had become common words in my vocabulary the winter that my sickness started to get out of control. I craved complete deliverance from disease, and I could not understand why God, the ultimate Healer, would not grant me that request. I knew He had all the power to remove my sickness in a heartbeat. I knew He could easily calm down the symptoms or even just let the medicine kick in, yet no matter how much I begged, He didn’t take away the pain. My sister, who had just been inspired by another woman’s testimony, suggested that instead of asking God to remove…
