It’s About Choices
Life is full of choices. Some shape us. Some break us.
I'm a woman of faith, a wife, a mother, a missionary, a chaplain, and a coach, and I've seen both sides. I've watched people embrace God's truth and come alive with joy, peace, groundedness, and undeniable fruits. And I've watched others wrestle through confusion, pain, and heartbreak that didn't have to happen (I've been there). The difference? Truth. Known, embraced, and lived out.
I've made my choice, and I'm all in with God and His Truth. I want my life to count: to live fully, love deeply, and leave something behind that lasts. Because when everything else fades, that's what will matter. We get to choose the kind of mark we leave on this world: footprints of faith, hope, and love that the next generation can follow. That's a legacy worth building.
If you're tired of shallow living and you're hungry for something deeper, richer, and more purposeful, you're in the right place. If you're ready to step into the life God has for you and your family, then let's go. Let's choose well, live with intention, and make every day count!
What do you do when the seasons change at a time that you least expected? You've waited until all the leaves have fallen off the tree, and the old dry trunk and branches are all that remain? Sarah had waited until everything around her said, "Case closed!" And then God showed up[...] Read more
Have you ever felt like everyone else's life is moving forward while you’re stuck in the same place? You are probably all too familiar with this stage of life if you have been around for a few decades. You pray. You fast. You believe. But nothing seems to be changing. It’s like you're holding your breath while life keeps moving for everyone else[...] Read More

Walking by faith is easy when everything is clear. But what about when life feels foggy? When the direction isn’t obvious, the outcome isn’t guaranteed, and the next step feels risky?
Being on the same page with your spouse when you don't have all the answers can be a major challenge in the marriage [...] Read more
“So Sarai said to Abram, “The Lord has prevented me from having children. Go and sleep with my servant. Perhaps I can have children through her.” And Abram agreed with Sarai’s proposal.”(Gen 16:2)
“Abram traveled through the land as far as Shechem. There he set up camp beside the oak of Moreh…Then the Lord appeared to Abram and said, “I will give this land to your descendants.” And Abram built an altar there and dedicated it to the Lord, who had appeared to him.” (Gen 12:6, 7)
"No longer will you be called Abram, but your name will be Abraham, for I have made you a father of many nations." (Gen 17:5)
#10 - Be The god Your Child Sees
Don't you see that children are God's best gift? The fruit of the womb his generous legacy? Like a warrior's fistful of arrows are the children of a vigorous youth.
Have you ever faced a challenge so daunting that every part of you wanted to throw in the towel and walk away? We have all been there. That moment when the burden becomes too much to bear and your inner voice begs you to "just quit." It’s a powerful force—a beast that seems to creep in at our most vulnerable moments, coaxing us to abandon the very things we once believed in with all our hearts. What if, however, you viewed this "I Quit" moment as a turning point- a chance to rise, develop, and find your voice?
"So Naomi and Ruth traveled until they came to Bethlehem. When they entered Bethlehem, the whole city was stirred because of them, and the women of the city exclaimed, “Can this be Naomi?”(Ruth 1:19)
Imagine yourself in this situation for a moment. You’ve lost everything: you have decided to head back to a land you once called home, and suddenly, your widowed daughter-in-law, a young woman from a people your own people consider enemies, wants to go with you. Would you take her? Or would you have embraced her and tried to convince her to stay behind?
Naomi took that risk. She allowed Ruth, a Moabite woman, to walk with her into an uncertain future.
Read and find out the outcome of this risk.
#5 - You can bloom again
Rising Above the Challenges of Life
Do you feel like it's all over? Like life has dealt you a blow and you can never be the same again? Naomi and her daughter-in-law had been dealt a huge blow in their lives. Everything around them looked bleak. But Naomi decided to go back home and start all over again.
Divorce rate is increasing in our time, and infidelity is no longer frowned upon. People agree to define what sin would mean to them in order to design "convenient living" for themselves. As a father, you need to help your son see the wisdom in keeping romantic relationships on hold until he is ready to commit to the marriage covenant.
How can I teach my son to love his neighbor in the fast-paced world of today? Can I still raise a son with values that can stand against the tides? You can teach your son to love people in ways that will enable them to be better citizens of the contemporary world.
Parenting feels rewarding when a child is respectful, cooperative, and easy to guide. But what happens when your child becomes difficult to reach, when every conversation feels tense, their choices bring pain, and your love seems to be resisted at every turn? One of the hardest lessons in parenting is learning how to keep loving well even when love is not being received well.
How do you know if you are loving your child? What you may be calling love, may be in conflict with what the child really needs. You can love your child in a way that makes him or her feel loved.
