Praying for TRUTH

Is having another "bite-my-tongue" moment. I've had a lot of them over the last several months. My human nature wants to scream some truths from the rooftops so that others are aware. But God keeps telling me it's not my issue. I need to step aside and let Him handle it.

So what is the only thing I can do as I see lies continuing to be told & manipulations continuing to be tolerated? Pray. Pray that the person doing all these things gets convicted and repents. Pray that those under this person's leadership will have their eyes opened to the truth.

What makes me so angry is hypocrisy. I worry about those being led astray. I fear for the hurt that is still to be inflicted. Yet, God is clearly telling me to stay out of it. Let Him handle it in His way, His timing.

What's that saying, "The truth will set you free"? Well, I do think that's correct...but God is insistent that the TRUTH come from Him, not me.

So, I'll pray. And pray some more. And when my human nature flares up again like it is right now...I'll pray even harder.

Here's hoping my tongue makes it through relatively unscathed...

Hello, There! Let Me (Re)Introduce Myself!

Well, hello there! Are you new here? I feel like I should be asking this of myself! I’ve been thinking for a while of returning to blogging. Not having to start from scratch is sure a blessing! I’m sure this blog will experience a few minor changes in the near future: like maybe the color scheme or even the name, but overall everything is pretty much still gonna be the same. It’s just me sharing my heart, sharing the wisdom that I hear God speaking and hoping to do it in a way that brings a little humor and joy into your life while I do. There’s been a lot of life changes since the last time I wrote in here. Our son is married, and he and our daughter-in-law are expecting their first baby very soon! (Dave & I are very excited to become Pops & Mimi!) His twin sister is finishing up grad school at the University of Tennessee - soon to become a speech language pathologist. And our youngest daughter is working full-time & getting ready to start a new job. My husband and I are w...

Romans 8: True Self vs False Self

When I hired my life coach in the summer of 2022, I was amazed at how quickly I saw true transformation in my own life. I knew pretty quickly that I wanted to someday get certified as a life coach myself. With my husband's blessing, I signed up for certification in the fall of 2023, and graduated last June as a Certified Christian Life Coach. I started accepting a few free clients in the fall of 2023, and have been thrilled to be able to coach several ladies since then. I am a general life coach for women of faith - of any age. What a joy it has been to help other women begin to have breakthroughs...even while I'm still experiencing breakthroughs of my own!  Last summer, as I was brainstorming ways I could grow my coaching business and reach more people in my community, I decided to let my town's FB group know that I was available for speaking at women's events or mom's groups in the upcoming year. It definitely was a little scary to put that offer out into the worl...

Finishing 2025 With My Soul On FIRE!

 Well, before I get started, I just have to say - if you don't already know - I actually DID start my podcast!!! There are currently 7 episodes out (with one more scheduled to post Saturday). I am having SO much fun with it! I am just so stinkin' proud of myself for doing the dang thing. LOL Whether I'm the only who ever listens to it - or it reaches a few strangers on the internet - I am so happy to be saying a resounding YES! to God's call on this one. So. Much. Fun. Holy Whispers Welcome Episode And, I guess, that leads in nicely to this blog post.  Let's finish this year STRONG! Saying yes to all the things that light our souls on FIRE! Even the things that terrify us! God gave us this opportunity, so let's make it count!  As my birthday approaches in a few weeks, it always gets me taking the temperature on where my life is at. We're almost 8 full months into 2025. What were your goals in January? What are the reasons you're proud of yourself right n...
