About Me

Welcome to my little writing corner. I count my many blessings to be a cherished wife and an ever-learning-loving-growing mother to 3 amazing children this side of Heaven and a precious little boy in Heaven. Together as a family we pastor a precious church community called Redeeming Hope Church. I've had the privilege of loving and following Jesus Christ since my earliest memories as a child. No matter what I've gone through in life, He has always been so present. At heart, I'm an encourager ... so this is a place where I get to wear my heart on my sleeve and share my journey of learning to live a life of love in action.

Another hug from my wonderful Jesus

How amazing is God's love for us ... the ways that He speaks so loudly even when we aren't necessarily on our knees seeking. Yesterday I posted my thoughts about God's heart to forgive and offer a fresh start for each new day. Today I opened my inbox to my everday "word for the day". Below is the message:

Dear Friend

Here is your word for today:



Verse:             Psalm 86:5



You, O Lord, are good, and ready to forgive [our trespasses, sending them away, letting them go completely and forever]; and You are abundant in mercy and loving-kindness to ALL those who call upon You.



- The Lord is good.
- He is so ready to forgive.
- He is full of unfailing love.
- He is ready to answer all those who ask for His aid.



PRAYER:  Lord, thank You for Your kindness and goodness to me. I receive Your mercy and forgiveness now. Amen.

How beautiful is that! His forgiveness is open-armed and ready to be channeled to us each day! That brings me so much peace in my journey through parenthood, as a learning wife, as a child of God. Thank you Jesus for the love and forgiveness that you openly "post" up for our attention every day :o)

I celebrate that as an extended family He has faithfully taught us all how to walk in vic...

We are Seeing the Miracles Unfold!

Precious friends and family ... we are starting to see the miracles unfold! We just KNOW that we are living in the miracle :0) Yesterday we had a scan with the specialist who discovered and diagnosed all of Zac's heart defects in August. It's been about 6 weeks since the day we heard the horrible news. As you may remember, the defects she discovered that day in "that" heart were so complex ... not only one defect, but multiple! There was the issue of only 1 chamber; only seeing one major valve from the heart to the lungs where there must be 2 and then the complication of not being able to clearly see the arch of the aorta. What she saw of it, as well as  several other specialists, it looked too narrow and underdeveloped from what we could understand. When we came back from that first scan and spoke with our friend and paediatrician ... this was one of his biggest concerns. The aortic arch is so important in the functioning of the heart!  So before we went for the...

The Day of Promise has Arrived

Precious friends ... The big day has finally arrived! Come 4pm today we will be taken into theater to meet our precious miracle son! Our hearts are filled with the Promises of our Beloved Jesus. This post is our hearts response of praise and adoration to Him because He has faithfully carried us through each day with "heart peace", strength, hope, faith and incredible love.
