Speaking blessing to someone in prayer is immensely powerful.  My wife blew me away on Monday night with that one. Repentance works.  I laid my bad attitude at work before the Lord in prayer this morning as I drove.  I’ve been incredibly, illogically upbeat ever since. Sometimes, even when you think the worst of someone, [...]

A few years ago I worked at a local hospital and had the pleasure of being surrounded by an amazing team. I was a brand new nurse, fresh out of nursing school and the staff I was with took me under their wing. They encouraged me and were patient as I ventured out of the [...]

I am a perfectionist. I guess you could classify me as Type A. I like to plan everything out and implement everything according to my plan. Don’t get me wrong, I can be flexible but I prefer not to have to be. If things go according to plan then I don’t have to be flexible [...]
