“Meet Me at the River”

It was in the whisper that I heard Him speak: “Meet Me at the river for your healing.”Then came the image—so real, so beautiful, so serene and calming—the water running around the bend. I am so honored that He uses me, that He speaks to me this way. I just love Him. Today, if youContinue reading ““Meet Me at the River””

The Wall

For many years, I have been wrestling with the Holy Spirit about the belief that the church is not significant. Throughout those years, I walked outside the confines of the church building, working with His people. I came to understand that the Acts Church is who my community is meant to be. I struggled inContinue reading “The Wall”

A portrait of a mother -Tammy

Let me tell you about Tammy. There is a fierce loyalty that she carries. Even in the hardest situations, Tammy is able to carry herself in a way that shows everyone around her that everything is going to be OK, no matter the storm. I met Tammy through my work because she is raising herContinue reading “A portrait of a mother -Tammy”

Identity and Self-Worth

There are so many fulfilling things about my life—so many things I am deeply grateful for. I very much enjoy my work. As I finish up an identity and self-worth course with a teen called Making Sense of Your Worth, I love seeing the transformation. This sweet girl has endured so much—things most will neverContinue reading “Identity and Self-Worth”

The least of these…

The answer comes when you can look outside yourself. Loving people where there are at is loving unconditional without expectations. ““Then they too will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or without clothes, or sick, or in prison, and not help you? ’ “Then he will answer them, ‘TrulyContinue reading “The least of these…”

Listen for His Whisper

In the book of First Kings in the Bible, there is a historical record of Elijah. Elijah was a prophet of God. It is quite fascinating to see the internal knowing Elijah had with the Holy Spirit. From being isolated and separated, living by the river and being fed by ravens, to being so confidentContinue reading “Listen for His Whisper”

Holy Spirit Fire

Pressing into His presence, I saw heaven open and His fire consume my hands. Lord, I want full alignment, my body, my soul and my spirit with you. Use my voice, use my heart, use my hands to show people your true essence. Let your fire fill me, for you, Holy Spirit, are my art.”Continue reading “Holy Spirit Fire”

Earned secure

When I work with individuals and families, I talk a lot about attachment. It’s the foundation for how we navigate life. Everybody’s goal should be to achieve earned secure attachment—the capacity to give care, receive care, negotiate needs, and be ok with autonomous self. Personally, I’ve been working very hard on this for a veryContinue reading “Earned secure”

A Moment in Time

Do you find yourself in the same place week after week with your child? “I’m tired of the way they make me feel like I’m a ___.” (Fill in the blank.) The struggle is not with your child; it’s with you. Hard words—but nobody can make you feel anything. What you’re hearing is an echo—anContinue reading “A Moment in Time”
