But God Was With Me…

But God Was With Me…

Featured Rooted LeadersLeave a comment

In the days of COVID-19, this story comes to mind. Like Gideon, you probably feel as though your only option is to hide and to store for yourself whatever provisions you can. Like Gideon, you may feel overwhelmed, disillusioned, hopeless that you can do anything to change the situation.

Disappointment

Disappointment

March 15, 2019 Rooted LeadersLeave a comment

Disappointment. Maybe for you, it’s a perpetual feeling of being lost, frustrated, empty..but at the core it’s a constant feeling of overwhelming disappointment. Life doesn’t resemble anything like you had envisioned. Your marriage isn’t the close, happy one that others seem to experience. You trusted God; prayed to God-over and over and you heard nothing.… Continue reading Disappointment

I Love You in Pieces

I Love You in Pieces

February 11, 2019 Rooted LeadersLeave a comment

I’m guessing the expression, “I love you to pieces” sounds vaguely familiar. Over the last few days of this  journey, I feel God  impressing upon me a bit different take to this familiar saying. Rather than God loving me to pieces, He loves me IN pieces. At various points in my life, God has given me a vision… Continue reading I Love You in Pieces

Thank You, God

Thank You, God

February 3, 2019 Rooted LeadersLeave a comment

On Monday, when Chris was still in rehab, and I was worried about the logistics of him coming home in a matter of days, I didn’t stop and say thank you that you, alone, are sovereign-in all things. On Tuesday, when the ambulance that was supposed to take him for an early morning procedure broke… Continue reading Thank You, God

Severing the Head

Severing the Head

January 19, 2019January 19, 2019 Rooted LeadersLeave a comment

Severing the head..it’s a gruesome thought I know. Honestly, it’s always been one of those details in the Bible I’ve asked myself before ‘is it really necessary to include?’ And as it always is with God, things become necessary once I realize the significance. The severed head I’m speaking of is Goliath’s.   A quick… Continue reading Severing the Head

All the Numbers in the World

All the Numbers in the World

December 14, 2018 Rooted LeadersLeave a comment

From the time our oldest was born, I’ve told him that I love him, “all the numbers in the world..plus 1.” I have no idea where I got that only that it has always seemed to be the most encompassing expression of how I feel for my children. That my love is beyond infinite in… Continue reading All the Numbers in the World

Blessings in the Breaking

Blessings in the Breaking

November 29, 2018 Rooted LeadersLeave a comment

If you had stopped me in line at the store 266 days ago, I would not have believed the catastrophic breaking our family would experience. Honestly, focusing on what’s broken is easy. It’s easy to watch the physical, mental and emotional suffering that our family has experienced and only see the shattered pieces of lives… Continue reading Blessings in the Breaking

Do You Want to be Healed?

Do You Want to be Healed?

September 24, 2018 Rooted LeadersLeave a comment

I recently listened to a sermon on John 5:1-18. This is the story of the lame man that has been lying by the pool of Bethesda with numerous other sick people-blind, crippled, paralyzed, etc.-all waiting for the pool to bubble up so that they could get into the waters and potentially be healed. In the… Continue reading Do You Want to be Healed?

Life Between the Chapters

Life Between the Chapters

September 20, 2018 Rooted LeadersLeave a comment

I have spent my life reading various stories in the Bible. Stories about Moses, Abraham, David, Joseph…pick one. In each story, God makes his presence known in some way; then a period of time passes before God’s promise comes to fruition. In a matter of minutes, I can read the entire experience. But a lot… Continue reading Life Between the Chapters

Know Ifs, Ands, or Buts

Know Ifs, Ands, or Buts

September 10, 2018 Rooted LeadersLeave a comment

Reading God’s promises in the Bible always gives me hope for whatever situation I’m facing. Promises about His forgiveness, blessings, grace, gifts, wisdom…on and on. What I often miss when I read His promises are the ‘ifs, ands, or buts’ that are the key to receiving the promise. Take Matthew 6:31-33: “So do not worry,… Continue reading Know Ifs, Ands, or Buts
