Happy October!
Posted on
October is here! Could this be my favorite month? It seems I say every month is my favorite lately! I guess when October arrives it feels like it is officially Fall. I tried to simplify my Fall decorating this year. Once I opened the closet up, I couldn’t stop. So, here are the results. Enjoy a mini home tour. I do wish for you the best Fall season ever!
Where’s Daddy?
Posted on
As I am preparing to go to New Mexico this weekend to speak on my personal story which I call, “Daddy, Do You Love Me?”… I got a bit sidetracked. I began thinking about how blessed and thankful I am. As I was thinking about all the ways the Lord has taken care of me as I was growing up without a daddy to watch over me, I checked into some statistics of kiddos growing up without a daddy. After reading over several items on this subject, I was even more thankful. I was a girl at risk and…
Do You Have a Desire To Be Holy?
Posted on
As a new Christian, a new world opened up to me. Attending Church and Sunday School became a normal for my family and I. We were at the church every time the doors were open, as they say. As I became convicted of various things in my life, my desire to walk as close to my Heavenly Father as possible grew stronger each day.

She shared with me that she thought she was pregnant. This was a beautiful young lady who was visiting our church at the time. I remember mostly just listening to her and in my head…

My greatest take away in attending the Declare Conference for Christian Blogging Women: To be confident in God’s leading in using my voice in the blogging world and any other way He chooses to use me. Here is a highlight of the weekend at the conference: The first week of August, I attended a bloggers conference called, Declare! It was held in Dallas at the Mariott Las Colinas. I had only been to one other blogging conference and that was a couple of years ago, which I learned so much but I was really enticed by Declare because it was…
What Does His Heart, My Desire Mean?
Posted on
Question: How did you come up with the name, His Heart, My Desire, as the name of your writing ministry? My Answer: In 2004, I was at my first writer’s conference and as I met so many new friends, I noticed many had names for their ministry and website, etc. That was one of the many things I had never even thought about in this new world of writing. In my quiet time that evening, I asked the Lord to show me what He wanted me to do with this desire I had to write. I…
