Foundational Verses Posted on August 15, 2015 By pamela Through the years as I’ve walked with the Lord, as I’ve walked (or crawled) through the Bible, I’ve marked meaningful verses or passages. In doing so, I’ve come to see a pattern for myself: foundational verses that I run to, or stand on, regardless my circumstances. They are my mental… Read more
Get the book and be: Present Posted on August 4, 2015 By pamela I’ve had the great privilege of getting to know Keri and was honoured to be asked to read the draft of this book before it was published. You’ll immediately see her heart in this writing and you’ll likely see yourself in the pages as her story unfolds; it may well… Read more
Fifty Five Million Reasons Posted on July 24, 2015 By pamela And I wonder how many more. Fifty five million reasons to stand against planned barrenhood. At least fifty five million babies never had the opportunity to take a drink of milk… never had the opportunity to be cradled and rocked to sleep… never had the opportunity feel the sun on… Read more

Dark Days Posted on July 15, 2015 By pamela In the wake of the breaking news stories in the last couple of days, it’s hard to fathom the depths of evil consuming our nation.

Tiny Houses Posted on July 13, 2015July 14, 2015 By pamela Have you ever imagined your life as something completely different than it is today? I don’t mean doing different things or changing jobs or whatever — I mean, living in a home that is a completely different type of home than you’ve been accustomed to living in all your life….

Remembering the Anchor Posted on July 10, 2015July 10, 2015 By pamela As I was mulling over a bunch of different events and circumstances affecting or involving our home and family this morning as the winds of change continue to blow, and I found myself reeling in thoughts of sadness, happiness, doubt, hope, confusion — as if tossed in the waves of… Read more
Yesterday & Tomorrow Posted on June 30, 2015 By pamela For the last fourteen years, I’ve had a day where I’ve stood between two days, looking back and looking ahead. Today is that day. Fourteen years ago when I looked back at that “yesterday” and ahead to that “tomorrow,” I didn’t know that I would come to call it my… Read more
