I’m not the only one who struggles with this puzzling scripture. I know I’m not.Struggling doesn’t mean that I don’t believe it. It just means that I struggle to understand what it really means. And I think you don’t really know either. Probably, like me you’ve asked for something and not received it. Maybe you … Continue reading Leaning…

I am an avid follower of Jesus. I have been since my early twenties when I met Him personally and received dramatic healing in my body and mind. After many years of marriage and raising sons into the teen years, I was challenged to explore the duplicity of my spoken faith followed up by fearful actions.
I received the challenge presented by both of my sons. They love me and so they dared to confront me with the truth. Chips off my proverbial block! I determined then {more than a decade ago} to overcome fear with faith that was more than words.
In my late 40's I made a decision to leave the desert wandering behind and set out to pursue the abundant life Jesus promised His disciples. I am a tentmaker {actually a reupholsterer} by day, which helps to support the call God has on my life to serve Him in my community. I thoroughly enjoy my work. Repairing and restoring throw-away furniture is a fulfilling creative outlet. More so, my Cheer House Repair and Restore business opens the door for me to interact with my community.
My passion is to walk so closely to Jesus that others want to know Him too. I love to introduce women to Him as we walk, talk, and work together hand in hand through everyday life. Nothing thrills me more than to watch someone fall so in love with Jesus through His word and conversation; learning to trust His heart and receive His great love!
I have been married to my dear man for over 30 rollercoaster years. We're simply thrilled that our latter days are more joyful and purposeful than our first. Together we have two - grown young men on their own journeys. Additionally, we share our home with 3 lively rescue pups.
I look forward to having you join me on this journey of faith...
Bold feet, humble heart

We give thanks for moms who have won victories through tears on their knees, and those … Continue reading On Mother’s Day
The Joy of Pruning
Thankfully, we have 2 citrus trees in our tiny yard. And they provide us with the best (in our opinion) oranges and pink grapefruits, in season. We eat, and juice, and spritz, and savor until we’ve had our fill. The harvest is plentiful beyond our capacity to consume and so we give away to all … Continue reading The Joy of Pruning
