songs beg and plea
for Him to come near
I imagine Him singing
those words over us

“The Mattress Plan”
hiding again on WordPress
for all to see
or ignore
driving down the road tonight
I passed a familiar bar
a lot of them are
and the sight of that bar
reminded me of others
and then it began Continue reading
Long Time, No See
Yesterday, I finally connected with Lee, and we had such a good visit together.
First off, if you’re wondering why I haven’t seen him in awhile, there are a couple reasons, but neither one of them really matters (but I’ll tell you anyway). Before I begin, I’ll bring new readers up to speed. Continue reading
“Along the Journey”
God’s not my GPS
choices are
there are many roads we can take

“Heart Breaks”
the feeling of failing
steals the air that I breathe
it blinds the vision that I’ve seen
it clouds the judgment of my mind
such a powerful force
yet invisible
and false
yet Continue reading
Off the Roller Coaster…FINALLY
Okay, remember the other night, I was at Carolyn’s band performance? Well, that evening, I found myself totally content on where I was and haven’t differed since.
While I was watching Carolyn, I realized how nothing was distracting me; there was nothing in the way of me seeing her, watching her, taking every movement in, and then it dawned on me what a priceless gift it was to be a single mom. Continue reading
