To Be Continued...


Many apologies extended to my three readers.  I know I never posted an ending to my summer excursions.  I’m sitting in the familiar orange chair at my Starbucks and I am trying to form sentences to finish off this adventure.  Slurring through my thoughts I am almost hostile with my thinking. “What the heck just happened to me?”  I won’t know for a long time, my friends.  Your guess is as good as mine.  I think God will use it for years to come.   

“I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.”—Romans 8:18

Here’s a friendly reminder:

Tucker's Birth Story

Tucker Jason Rhys was born on October 30th, 2023 at 3:18pm in the afternoon though I say his birth story started four months earlier in June.  In June we were packing up our family and lives in Africa to come back to America for a year. With two small kids and me being six month pregnant, Steven and I still thought it would be worth the effort to stop in Paris for a layover and do a couple Frenchy things like eat a croissant and see the Eiffel Tower.  It’s a “perk” of the job I tell myself—every flight path inevitably goes through Europe. We booked tickets that took us through Paris and then onto America. After booking everything we hit a snag—Farrah’s passport was set to expire in September and apparently France requires three months of validity left on a US passport before giving a visa to visit their country. She only had two months left before she needed to renew hers. (I'm getting to the birth, I promise…) Up until that last week on our island as we were packing our bags ...

Remember to Dream

Years ago there were days when I had more fun with the Holy Spirit.  I asked things of God.  I received answers from God.  I went to coffee with Jesus sitting across the table from me.  I watched movies as the Holy Spirit spoke things into my heart.  This is you...  My love is like this...  My justice is like that...   Then this one time, I felt the need to ask about Disney Princesses.  "Which princess am I?" I definitely knew it was true when He told me I was Belle.  I was a brunette Frenchie (at heart) and I longed for the life beyond the seemingly normal world I saw.  "There must be more to this provincial life!" was my theme song.  I also liked the idea of finding a brooding, bearded man in my adventures. Now, the talks with God have grown quiet.  It feels like I'm growing up...but not...because we will always remain children in the Kingdom if we have received it (Luke 18:16).  However, there is a very real...

Alabaster Flask

What a privilege to have something so valuable to my heart that its very surrender is seen as the utmost form of worship. Abraham had Isaac. Hannah had her son. The sinful woman had the alabaster flask. The Father had the Son, and the Son had His very life. How grateful am I to have been given something so dear, very dear, to my heart that I may surrender it as worship to God. Maybe a few tears as well. "Now when Jesus was at Bethany in the house of Simon the leper,  a woman came up to him with an alabaster flask of very expensive ointment, and she poured it on his head as he reclined at table.    And when the disciples saw it, they were indignant, saying, 'Why this waste?    For this could have been sold for a large sum and given to the poor.'   But Jesus, aware of this, said to them, 'Why do you trouble the woman? For she has done a beautiful thing to me.'"--Matthew 26:6-10
