Resistance
What do you think of when you hear the word, “CHANGE?” Does something inside you start stirring? Do you feel uncomfortable or irritable? Anxious or fearful? Change is a good thing; did you know that?

Humble Yourself Before the Lord
Autumn is my favorite time of year. As summer gives way to cooler temps, plants, trees and vegetation show us how they are preparing for the winter months and dormancy. Out in nature, I am in awe of the beautiful display God provides for us-free of charge. We need only be open and receptive to …

I Am the Living Water
My mind keeps drawing me back to the story of the woman at the well. From hearing the story in church during mass and in some podcast, something keeps resonating more deeply with her experience. As much as I’ve tried to be a good girl throughout my life, do what’s right, be open, honest, kind …

Day 1 of Year 16
Today marks the 1st day of my 16th year teaching and the 2nd year at my new school. Recent years have been a whirlwind for so many reasons. There certainly have been many crazies and plot twists during this time which have forced me out of my comfort zone, learned how to persevere, built resilience …
Hey There, I’m Still Here!
Well, hello there! I know it’s been a while since you last heard from or seen me. Can you see me now? I thought this was the perfect image to use, especially since I haven’t written much in quite a while. I am still here. I haven’t forgotten about you. Sometimes, we get so busy, …
