“Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves,” Philippians 2:3 (NIV). Sitting in our favorite breakfast café, our conversation hit a lull so I seized the opportunity and reached for my Smartphone. While my husband momentarily focused on his pancakes I focused on my social media.

Seeds germinate in dark places, don’t they? Mighty oaks are born out of dark places. They spring forth in adverse circumstances. We are like those mighty oaks. Jesus wants to cultivate us and grow us into the purpose He’s planted inRead More →

I’m sure you’ve been wondering what happened! I know I mentioned my shoulder surgery. Then I was sick for about a week. Then life happened and I ran out of time to get this post up when it was expected. So sorry to all my readers who were following this journey to rid ourselves of the sugar habit.

But, as promised, here is the wrap-up that was due to post back in October: For My Body: Well, we’ve completed our 28-day sugar detox. HowRead More →
