Where My Stories Come From
Many of my stories begin in dreams, but my personal experiences, hopes, and even fears also influence the characters and situations I write about. Join me for a glimpse into my imagination and the inspiration behind my Christian fiction.
Are You A Dog Or Cat?
A Christian reflection on gratitude, humility, and recognizing God as the source of our blessings, inspired by a thought-provoking dog-and-cat comparison.
A Reflection of My Heart
For as long as I can remember, I have been drawn to blue skies, flowers, mountains, rainbows, and the beauty of God’s creation. Looking through the photographs I have taken over the years, I realized how closely the things I love to capture reflect both a song from my youth and the faith that has shaped my life.
Woven for the Master’s Use
Last summer, I returned to my large rose bed after two growing seasons of neglect. A shoulder injury and the surgery that followed had kept me from tending it. The roses were still alive, but the grass had spread everywhere.
As I knelt in the dirt pulling weeds, I noticed something beneath the surface. The grass roots were tightly woven together. When I pulled one clump, others resisted. They were intertwined, strengthening one another, spreading together.
Submission
Society says a woman should never submit. She should guard her independence, protect her voice, and answer no one. But Scripture does not present submission as weakness. It presents it as part of a design that flourishes when both husband and wife honor their God-given roles.
The question is not whether submission exists in Scripture. It clearly does.
The question is this: What kind of man is worthy of her submission?
As White As Snow
I love snow. There is something breathtaking about freshly fallen snow.
Before the sun rises and before footprints disturb its surface, the earth lies covered in a blanket of pure white. Rusted fences disappear. Muddy ditches are hidden. Trash along the roadside vanishes beneath the brilliance. What was once dull and dirty now appears clean, radiant, even beautiful.
