Child of God, Wife, Mother, Pastor

I find myself trying to practically juggle several roles and their coenciding goals. My first goal is to chase after God with all of my heart and become a vesses He can use. My second is to love my husband and follow God's will for our lives. The third is to love my children and share with them the love of God and the grace He has provided. The fourth is to follow the call God placed on my life when I was a child and share with others the transforming power of having a relationship with Christ. Bundle this all together and you have the challenging, exciting, complicated, fast paced, blessed, and at times overwhelming life that I am humbled to embrace as "mine."


So I decided to blog. Why? Not because I have a great deal of insight and wisdom to offer this world. Not because I have a lot of deep transformational thought to impart upon my readers. Certinally not because I have a lot of free time to spend creating a unique blog with a vast following. Rather, I decided to blog because I deal often with the practial challenges of being a wife, a mother, and a minister and know that there must be some others out there who do also! Maybe I have walked through a challenge that can hlpe you as you chase your calling. Maybe you have experienced something that will help me through my struggles. Or maybe you will just get a laugh out fo the silly stories and adorable pictures of my children. who knows?
