In these days of confusion, I often wonder if there is any point to my daily activities in life. I struggle with it. A lot. Today, I just share with you my ramblings from my prayer and journaling time this morning. It's random, and it may not make any sense, but it's all I have to share right now. So,...

Nowhere I’d Rather Be
Did you know that if you’re a mom who likes to travel and go and do, you find yourself dreaming about travel and adventure more than ever if you can’t do it?

Does it mean you’ve got everything you want? The big house, great car, jet-setting lifestyle, designer clothes,...

Why me?
Why did this happen to ME, Lord? This is not fair! I try to be a good person, I try to follow your will…so why is this happening, what have I done to deserve this? Have you ever asked this of God? Has something so painful happened to you that you feel you can’t live with the circumstances or the...
