A week ago I went to a painting experience with several women. We all painted the same picture, using the same colors, following the same instructor, yet we all had different masterpieces.  At the end of class we all looked at each other’s paintings and complimented what we liked and marveled at the uniqueness of…

Happy Mother’s Day! I was reflecting on all my mom is and does for me and my family this week and I asked God this question, “Why are women so special to you?” Every question we have we can find in scripture so that’s what I turned to. When I asked the question I didn’t…

Experience my reflections from Palm Sunday through the Resurrection, outlining main events of each day and my personal thoughts. My reflections are a result of meditation and conversations with God, not to reteach all aspects of Holy Week. I hope you relate to these thoughts and new ones grow within…

I saw a man pick up a coin and toss it in the air. He looked at it and then kept walking. I was too far to see the coin, but if I had to guess it was a penny. There is a superstition that the heads side of a penny is lucky, bringing good…
