God is the ultimate romantic, if you will allow Him to be.

Redeeming Romance – Part One
In December, I was blessed to be able to attend the Overland staff Christmas party, which took place at the home (down in the Cocoa, FL area, near our office) of the parents of one of our missionaries. Besides an INSANE amount of food and a bounce house for the kids, the main event of … Continue reading Redeeming Romance – Part One

“The life of faith must never stand still, for if your feet are going, your faith is growing.”
Unconditional
Without a doubt, one of the most common mistakes that we make when we think about God is the unconditionality (is that a word? unconditionalness? I say it's a word) of His love for us, and I think even more important, His promises to us. It's so easy for us to fall into the trap … Continue reading Unconditional

Trust in the Lord with all your heart

I've "moved" (relocated might be a better word) about 10 times since August, and that has easily been the most difficult and stressful part of the season that I'm in; relying on the generosity of people/couples with a spare bedroom (even a couch or inflatable mattress on occasion) willing to host a missionary woman for a … Continue reading Home

BUT, I would also assert that every moment of every day should stir up … Continue reading The Passion
Divine Romance
I'm finally getting around to reading Captivating, which to most of you is probably shocking that I'm only just now reading it. But hey, I'm just starting to become a reader--or shall I say, forcing myself to become one--and I'm a missionary who can't afford to just go out and buy a ton of books, so give … Continue reading Divine Romance
A Post That’s Not About Missions
Sometimes--you may have had one of those moments--where God just lays something on your heart. I could, theoretically, post this on my old blog, which perhaps would be more suitable, but that blog symbolizes my "old" life (old in quotations because the last post on there was only a year ago). But, hey, it's my … Continue reading A Post That’s Not About Missions
Captain
Through waters uncharted my soul will embark I'll follow Your voice straight into the dark And if from the course You intend I depart Speak to the sails of my wandering heart Like the wind You'll guide Clear the skies before me And I'll glide this open sea Like the stars Your Word Will align … Continue reading Captain
