My Purpose Filled Life Comes Without a Drill Sergeant
I want to start off by saying I know God has always been with me — even before my conception. Cheers to my mom and dad’s hardcore belief in life. I was an unexpected baby (not to God, but to mom and dad). It had been 12 years since their last child, but mom was…
Lord, Thank You For the Rain!
We’ve been having downpours of rain for the last few days. Aw, sweet rain! We are on a water ration here in Frisco – only one day a week do we get to water our yards. In this Texas heat, that just hasn’t been enough water and my lawn has suffered. I’ve lost two holly…

Just a Little Band of Women

Love Means Never Having to Say You’re Sorry
Those are the words from one of my favorite romantic movies of all time, “Love Story” with Ryan O’Neal (Oliver) and Ali McGraw (Jenny). Oliver blamed himself for keeping Jenny from her music career and when apologizing, Jenny’s love for Oliver was far greater to her and that’s when she said that famous line. As…
