That Girl
Who rose from the ashes because she was the fire!
God blew on the embers of her possibilities.
and combustion happened birthing life to her dreams,
and smiles that fed those places in
her eyes that had grown dark.
That girl!
Who said no... no to surrender!
No to fear. Grasping instead life and love.
Loving the woman God created.
Seeing her flaws as fabulous and
seeing her tears as rain!
I’m that girl!! That girl is me!

I adore words and I love what happens when we grab them, sleep with them, holler and scream and laugh at them! I love what happens when we throw them in the air and watch them fall magically from our minds onto paper!

To My Sisters With Sons
To My Sisters with Sons, My heart breaks as I am sure yours does as well. Our hearts pound nervously each time he leaves the house, as he says, "I'll be back." Our mother bear instincts rise within us as we watch our cub walk out of sight or back out of the driveway.

The Tune of a Triune God to a Triune Man
Jesus sacrificed Father held them fast and strong Holy Spirit flows Genesis 1:26-27 says, "Then God said, 'Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.' So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them."
