Welcome

Since you were kind enough to drop by, I will share a bit. I have entered a new season in my life. For now, I am writing less fiction and more nonfiction. My grandchild (nickname Peachy) is teaching me the art of play, and I am also traveling hither and thither with my husband. This is also a season when I’m feeling a bit creakier in my joints, and yet I’m feeling more alive in my spirit than ever. God has come close to me in such unexpected ways, and I have been continually surprised by our mutual delight. But then again, isn’t that the way it should always be with God?

What life-season are you entering?

This Sacred Dance: Daily Visits with Jesus

Welcome to my heart-journey with God. These are prayers rising up out of my joy and pain, questions and awe, and sometimes my suffering and surrender. Join me in what I like to call This Sacred Dance with the Lord.

Your Beautiful Forgiving Ways

Oh Lord, Why do my grudges keep festering like wounds too deep to heal? Do I need more compassion or humility? Show me how to heal from this awful, spiritual ailment. I know You have forgiven me for my many wrongs. Please remind me every day of Your beautiful, forgiving ways, so that I will show more mercy to others!

Too Beautiful to Contain

I love to organize and tidy things. In fact, I find that sometimes it is tempting, Lord, to try to fit You into a container also. I have even noticed that some of our houses of worship reflect that box-shaped packaging that we feel compelled to put You in. Forgive us, for You are too majestic, too mysterious, and too staggeringly beautiful to contain. And I must say that I am immensely glad for it!
