Welcome to my Blog. A space where I openly journal my faith journey through life’s victories, valleys, questions, and unexpected seasons. Here, I share what God is teaching me along the way as I open His Word, pour out my heart, and learn to trust Him, even when I don’t understand the chapter I’m living.

  • She Called Me MAMA.

    She Called Me MAMA.

    For two months, my girl couldn’t call me Mama. Since August 6, she would smile when she saw me. She would light up and get excited the moment I walked into her hospital room. Even when she couldn’t say it, I could tell she knew I was somebody important to her. Somewhere inside, my girl… Read.

  • Everybody Grabbed a Corner…

    There are some things you don’t truly understand until life puts you in a position where you have to live the message you once preached. Many years ago, I ministered a message at a childhood friends Women’s event called “Can You Carry Someone Else When They Stand to Benefit and Not You?” At the time,… Read.

  • To Every Mama Who Raised Her Children in God, None of it Was Wasted.

    I raised my children in church. But when I say that, I don’t mean I simply raised them to go to church. I raised them to BE the church. I wanted them to know God beyond Sunday morning. I taught them to pray.I taught them the Word.I taught them where to run when life hurt.I… Read.

  • The Hardest Honor of My Life

    This has been one of the hardest things I have ever had to witness. I have watched my daughter fight battles I never imagined she would have to face. I have watched machines breathe for her. I have watched doctors rush to save her life. I have seen tubes, drains, surgeries, medications and scars. I… Read.

  • Speak to the Breath “One Breath at a Time”

    There are moments in this journey when I can tell you exactly what the doctors said. And then there are moments when I have to tell you what God said to me. This is one of those moments. Bug was still on the ventilator. The doctors had already tried to take her off once, but… Read.

  • In the Consultation Room

    In the Consultation Room

    There are moments in life that divide everything into before and after. For me, one of those moments happened in a consultation room. The doctors told me that Bug had suffered a severe brain bleed and stroke because of a faulty artery in her brain. My baby, only six days postpartum was fighting for her… Read.

  • When the Lyrics Become Your Life

    When the Lyrics Become Your Life

    Sometimes you can sing the words with your mouth long before life teaches your heart what they truly mean. For years, I led “For Your Glory” at church. I knew the words. I knew the melody. I knew when to lift my voice, when to pull back and when to let the worship build. I… Read.

  • Your Faith Isn’t Canceled by Your Tears

    What do you do when life catches you off guard and the faith you thought was strong suddenly feels weak? I would like to tell you that this did not take me by surprise, but it did. I would like to tell you that because I am a woman of faith, I was fully prepared… Read.

  • SOMETHING WAS BIRTHED IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS…

    SOMETHING WAS BIRTHED IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS…

    I didn’t plan to start a blog. In many ways, this blog found me. It wasn’t on my vision board. I didn’t have a launch date circled on my calendar. I wasn’t sitting around thinking about becoming a blogger. Her Bible & Her Journal was birthed in the middle of one of the hardest seasons… Read.

  • Community for Spiritual Growth

    Her Bible & Her Journal was created to provide women with a safe, honest and encouraging place to study God’s Word, strengthen their faith and document their spiritual journeys. This is more than a blog or Bible-study group. It is a community where women can remove the mask, open their Bibles, pick up their journals and… Read.
