The Gift of a Heart-Shaped Rock
Today I just wanted to share a little something with you—my weird hobby. When I tell people I collect rocks, they often respond with “Rocks? What kind of rocks?” It’s not the type of rock that makes it special; it’s the place it was found in, the memories associated with it. When I take my…

The Gift of a God Thing
I saw something recently that shockingly would change the entire trajectory of my life and my heart. There before my eyes was a photo of an autism awareness tee shirt. I loved that tee, and I had to have it! This tee shirt was a very good thing for me—good message, good color, good design.…

The Gift of a Hidden Thing
It is the glory of God to conceal a thing, and the glory of kings is to search it out. (Proverbs 25:2) A friend and I decided to do an “escape room” recently, and we had so much fun! One of the rules to the game was that we must go into the room with…

The Gift of a Bad Day
I met someone online recently. Well, we didn’t exactly meet, but we FaceTimed for hours. This man was too good to be true, everything I thought I was looking for. The day after our little phone date, I woke up early as usual and curled up in my prayer chair with my favorite blanket and…

The truth is though I…

The Gift of Such a Time as This
For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father’s family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this. (Esther 4:14) I believe we were all meant for the…

The Gift of Hope: Walking By Faith Not By Sight
We all as humans have something in common. We live in a world where we will one day be no more. For the atheist, he believes he will cease to exist; for the believer, he goes on. But what about the agnostic? To the atheist—I believe there are plenty of arguments for the existence of…

The Gift of God’s Wisdom
God gives wisdom generously to those who ask. (James 1:5) God’s wisdom is one of the greatest evidences of His existence. The very best thing we can do for ourselves is to get in the habit of asking God for wisdom in everything. God always answers, though it may not be immediately. I have a…

The Gift of a Golden Winter Sky
January—it’s the dead of winter. Nothing’s in bloom; it’s cold, and the joy-filled holidays have come and gone. For a lot of us, this time of year can be quite depressing. The week after releasing my book, for a moment, I felt the emptiness of winter. It wasn’t a bad feeling; it just was. It’s…
