A follower of Jesus, recent widow, momma of four, gramma to five – all grown and wonderful.

A  journaler.  My delight is to record the goodness of God in our family experiences and the opportunity to share my story with those who are going through their own story.

A woman of the Word. My experience as Bible study leader, conference teacher, and mentor is the grateful place to share God’s Word of encouragement.

A speaker.  For Him.

A writer.  Guideposts, Woman’s Day, Power for Living, Threads of Encouragement, Cup of Comfort Devotional, Chicken Soup for the Soul, CBN, INSP, Christian Devotions, and various publications has provided a way to publish the wondrous works of God. My books, Crumbs Along the Broken Path, a collection of personal stories telling of God’s faithfulness in times of tragic circumstances. Gathering Seeds of Encouragement, a devotional of inspirational writings with a place to journal your heart as you take a sacred pause . . .

  

I would have despaired unless I had believed I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.  

Psalm 27:13
