Things Learned

A real friend doesn't always say 'It will be okay.' A real friend is simply there.

Be slow to speak. Quick to listen. More often than not, that's what people truly need.

There's personal healing in helping others.

It's a privilege to be a mother. And it's a privilege to have one!

We're stronger than we think! And the only way you'll ever know that is to have no option but to be strong.

Be a safe person. Create safe atmospheres.

Joy isn't circumstantial.

You're meant for more than the eye can see.

It's a privilege to be asked to pray for someone.

Reputation is nothing. Character is everything!

Your pain is never wasted.


People - women, men, elders, two year olds and everywhere in between - taught me these things.
But I know who was working through these precious people to help me learn these life lessons. You can't learn and truly understand and implement certain things unless you realize where it really comes from - Him.

It's all Him. And it's always been. Earthly things are nothing. It's all about the our real home.

Glory be to God! The Great Teacher.
