The Gift of a Wife: Becoming the Proverbs 31 Woman
He who finds a wife finds a good thing. (Proverbs 18:22) What makes a wife? A wedding ceremony, a ring on your finger, a shared bank account and living space? I want to make a bit of an ironic claim: The “Proverbs 31 woman” was a wife before she had a husband and would have…

The Gift of Dreams
“Let her sleep, for when she wakes, she will move mountains.” unknown It all started with my dreams.

Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. (Proverbs 4:23) If you know me, you know I love to collect rocks. I like to take them from places and times I want to remember, and I usually paint them. This is a rock from one of my favorite hiding places.…
