Come Walk With Me!
It’s time for a heart check. A handing over of the mess that winter left to make room for all spring is bringing. It looks like breathing deeply to soak in the promises of God and the beauty that accompanies the deep inhale. It is time to let go and embrace the...Blessings in the Ordinary and Hope in the Hard
On a Wednesday, several months ago, news came my way that pulled me away from my ordinary life as I took a deep dive into the hard. The actual situation is not as important as how I received the news, supported the person, and looked for guidance for myself. Life did...
Monthly Musings ~ April 2018
April was nothing like I expected and better than I imagined. Winter did not want to leave even though I begged and begged. The month dragged on with no end in sight until one morning it didn’t. The spring green that I longed for appeared out of nowhere and the...

For years, I knew exactly who I was. I claimed sister, daughter, teacher and mom as my identity and the security these names gave me lasted until recently. I understand we travel through different seasons of life. But four or so years ago, things changed at such a...
Sabbath Offerings ~ Blessed Assurance
A week ago as I was journaling, the words blessed assurance found their way onto the page. I must admit that those weren’t the first words that spilled out. Words like “broken heart, bleeding out and brokenness” came first. God is so good not to...
Surrender and Dig Deeper
I struggle with that surefire faith that stops doubt in its tracks. My first response is to turn to myself for the answers. What follows is never very pretty because weakness and brokenness are not a good combination for finding the truth. I’m blessed to live in...
Monthly Musings ~ March 2018
Oh, March! I hear your roar. I see how you cling to winter like a long lost friend. But hope is coming. I see it in the buds ready to burst open in joy. The dull green landscape is brightening and the winter browns are turning golden. As you make your exit, your last...Hi, I’m Mary!
I’m also a woman seeking God in the ordinary routines of life.
