As a retired teacher of 30+ yrs., I've witnessed the life-changing impact that hope and optimism make for those who need a cheerleader in their corner. The young especially are hungry for empowering words of faith. Continuing to inspire young hearts to trust a loving Heavenly Father, spurred my desire to write. I value meaningful work, determination, and the ability to go deeper for understanding is a privilege I don't waste. Time is filled with creative projects and info. that feeds my soul, so in turn, I can be sensitive and responsive to the needs of others. Blessings include a son and daughter, who have wonderful thriving lives. My husband and cats enjoy country life with raccoons, squirrels, birds, and deer. Cows and horses standing in the road, and an occasional runaway ostrich trotting through my back yard brings unexpected laughter and are "gifts" that make my heart sing. My desire? To reflect the love of Holy Yahshua, and live to see His Kingdom and glory fill the earth.
