This is our first week at our trailer in cottage country and something always slams into my heart when I arrive here. I'm not certain if it's because life slows down or because of the gorgeous scenery but I feel God's presence in my life much more clearly here. This is one of the places which can stimulate my thoughts, brining to a teachable place....as if God is right beside me, guiding me. This week I had the pleasure of hearing James MacDonald speak, if you are unaware of Mr. Macdonald I ...

Prayer Warriors I Could Use You

Almost as if I'm a turtle all pulled into my shell hiding in fear. It wasn't until I was reading a post I wrote in 2011, Self-Improvement, taking a ...

Anxiety, Pain & Celebration It’s Been a Tough Week
This week has been a tough one, I had a medial assessment booked for Tuesday which would essentially wipe out the rest of my week. At these assessments my body is prodded and moved around in ways which raise my anxiety and pain levels for days afterwards, landing me in bed to recover. Yeah it's a fun time she says in her most sarcastic manner....but it's something which cannot be avoided. To add insult to injury, I realized that our entire province was under a winter storm watch for the ...
