How Do I Apply CORE Strength To Justify Boundaries?
Morning friend, My 92-year-old father just left. It was wonderful having him visit us here in Arizona. It reminds me of the legacy we leave to those who have watched us live our lives. My dad is not a perfect person, but he’s consistently lived out his godly values. My grandchildren, his great-grandchildren have gotten to know him better this…
Read MoreEmotional and Verbal Abuse
Morning friend, There is still a lot of confusion and misinformation on whether or not emotional abuse is real. You may be told by your husband or even your pastor that “you are too sensitive.

Morning friend, Did you know that during the daytime, sunflowers all turn towards the sun, but at night they all turn towards one another? I love that picture from nature.

Morning friends, Thanks for your prayers. I had a great weekend visiting with my sister from Chicago. The weather was sunny and warm and we spent a lot of time at the pool where we could walk around the track (in the pool), talk and not break a sweat. I think I spent more time in our community pool and…

Morning friends, I have had a crazy and hard week. Pray for me to use my time wisely and to take good care of myself. Lots to do, not enough time to do it well. So pray I know what to say No to so that I am free to say Yes to the important. Today’s Question: I read your…
Read MoreDo I Have To Make Amends To My Abuser?
Morning friends, I am back in Phoenix for the week and boy oh boy is it hot. I forgot how hot it can get here. I can walk our dog for about 5 minutes and then we both are seeking shelter. She’s not used to it either. We both miss our long evening walks in the cool mountain air. But…
