This holiday season I beg of you to not serve canned cranberry sauce. I invite you to savor the full flavor in my personal cranberry sauce recipe. This sauce is so tasty and so simple to make you have no reason to open a can of jellied cranberry sauce.

I Call You Friend?

I'm certain that I'm not alone in my desire to be a woman serving God well. Like many it is my desire to be the woman, wife, and mother that God created me to be. It is a daily struggle wrapped in joy and often dipped in pain and defeat.

All too often I find my head spinning and my heart aching with every sin and failure starring back at me when I see my reflection. I know who I want to be and no matter how hard I work I seem to constantly stumble and fall. I see so many seemingly well-equipped women standing before me; both in scripture and in my everyday.

The day you were born was an important day so we celebrate your birthday. Birthdays happen everyday but we celebrate each birthday of those we know and love because each person is important and each person is loved by God.

The day your husband died of cancer was an important day so we grieve with you and pray with you. Death happens everyday but we recognize this is a particularly hard day for you and so we offer up our sympathies and comfort you any way we can because you are important, because we love you.
