Leave me a comment and let me know your thoughts on Finding Light in the Dark Places of Life. There are moments in life when it feels like a dark cloud settles in making everything difficult to see.

Single Moms & Christmas
With Christmas just around the corner, I have no doubt there are moms who are already agonizing over a day that is supposed to be a glorious celebration. Although they want to make amazing memories and buy memorable gifts for their children, the lack of child support and the paycheck to paycheck living does not allow for expensive things.

Is Jesus Really Enough?
Sometimes it is hard to know how to process the big missing puzzle pieces of life. What is a person to do when a tragic accident takes a loved one much too soon? When illness creeps in and threatens the sanity of everything normal, how do you move forward? When a woman is finally blessed with a child in her womb and then hears the words, “No heartbeat.” What then? How do we gain enough strength, enough peace, enough grace to make it through?
