Ramblings of a Non Conformist
"Where is your good God now?" "I'm not religious, but will you pray for me?" "This is mother nature's wrath on climate deniers." There are so many misconceptions when "bad" things happen. Everyone wants to explain why, place blame, and throw off any responsibility for it. They also suddenly want prayer without the acknowledgement that [...]
I am a sinner, not a saint. I am a woman with conviction, not uncertainty. I am a daughter of the most high king first, then wife, mother, and American. People want to redefine me, label me, shove me in a corner, and shut me up. I embarrass them they say. We carry the same [...]

There are times in life where my heart leaps [...]
I've written a bit about not judging, but this post is from an opposite perspective of what I've traditionally written. It struck me as I read an article about a particular sin, that I won't mention because I'm sick of people highlighting certain sins, that the new idea prevalent in our society is to call [...]
As I walked around my house this past week, you know during the "polar vortex" everyone can't shut up about -seriously, we can't actually have "cold" in the winter without them calling it something that sounds scary- ,I had a simple thought that it must have been super warm in the Garden of Eden.
