We’ve all heard the term “happy warrior” to describe people who fight for their causes in a upbeat way. These are people who don’t seem to get down about defeats or setbacks. It’s a good label, but “happy” isn’t a term I would want to use because happiness is based on circumstances. The Lord calls …

I’m a big believer in keeping a healthy amount of margin in life. I’ve written many posts about margin over the years and highly recommend two books related to it in my list of My Favorite Simple Living Books. But sometimes no matter how hard I try, I find myself with shrinking levels of the …

This was a long week for everyone for various reasons. It was a long week at the end of a long month in the midst of a long year. Giving up, throwing up our hands, or giving into depression isn’t an option. As women, we set the tone in the home more than anyone. I’m …

Every day last week I opened up the browser tab to write my weekly newsletter to you all. Then I sat and stared at it. I wanted to write, but all I could come up with was a torrent of angry words. Over the years of blogging I’ve learned that I don’t want to write …

Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms. If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen. 1 Peter 4:10-11

View Full Post with Embedded Content4 Ways to Simplify Your Life for the Coming Decade

We’re currently standing on the precipice of something we cannot fully explain. We can sense it’s coming because it’s impossible to miss the signs that things are not right. At the same time, we don’t know how this “thing” will unfold. We can’t even name this thing we see right before us. We don’t know …

This was written April 23, 2020. As with the March 18, 2020 post Cheerfully Adjusting In A Coronavirus World, I have not updated it and so it reflects my thinking at that time. This is a deliberate choice for historical purposes. I have been asking myself this question for the past few weeks: Are we …

Update October 2021: I made the decision to leave this post as I wrote it at the time. It serves as a reminder to me why I will never trust the government, medical experts, or others in authority again. I trusted them at the beginning and I want to remind myself that I trusted them …
