Well, I am always learning new things and today I learned that you can't add a pdf to a business page. I created a calendar of upcoming events with clickable links to more information and I can't share it here - SO - if you would like it, message me your email and I will send it to you.

Don't worry - you won't miss out as all the goodness will be posted here over time - right now I just don't have the time to recreate it. I need to start advertising for the first series starting March 2nd.

One verse into my Bible reading this morning and BAM! My world is shaken.

Yesterday I stopped after reading Gen 1 & 2 because it is a ‘good’ story. Everything is good. I had time to read more, but I intentionally stopped myself so I could sit in the goodness of God and the goodness of His creation. I knew what was coming - or I thought I did.

Gen 3:1
Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?”

I’ve heard it a thousand times but for some reason after I read the first half of the verse I went to the footnotes to read what was there, blah, blah blah and then BAM…by causing the woman to doubt God’s Word…I was stilled. I thought of the rough, difficult and even dark times of my life and yes, so often in those places I was doubting God and His Word. I was not believing that He had good gifts for me (James 1:17), that He liked me (Zeph 3:17), that He was working good from the situation (Rom 8:28), that He hadn’t deserted me (Heb 13:5), that He would complete the work He started in me (Phil 1:6), etc.

This is why I find I need more and more of the Word of God - you can never have enough - the food that sustains, heals, gives life! I can easily doubt God and His Word if I am not regularly feasting on it. I need to know the truth in order to discern the lies. I do not want to fall prey to the great deceiver.

Where have you doubted God in your life?

There is no shame in doubt, there is victory in recognizing it, confessing it and embracing the truth.

But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. Luke 2:19

A few weeks ago on a hike with some ladies, we talked about this verse and the things we ponder.

Ponder - to think or consider especially quietly, soberly and deeply.

Preoccupied - lost in thought, already occupied

This was the question I needed to answer...am I preoccupied and therefore unable to ponder? Is most of my thinking lost thoughts, dead-ends, vicious circles? Or in simple terms - does my thinking lead to life or death?

I definitely need to make room, to clear out some mind clutter so I can think deeply on the things that bring life.

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Philippians 4:8

What about you? Are you finding yourself preoccupied or do you have the space to ponder?

Live unafraid!!!

"Fear not!" is in the Bible 365 times! We are fearful people - we may try to call it something else, but if you take the layers away, the root is fear.

For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. II Tim 1:7

God help us to trust you more each day so that we can look to You and freefall into whatever You are calling us to, just like Andrew is trusting his Auntie completely!!!

I have an amazing group of women I do life with and one of them posted in our group that she was..."listening to The Doctor’s Farmacy on the Blue Zones of communities who live super long healthy lives. One of the things they talked about was how real community where you feel seen, heard, and cared for fights inflammation and helps cure disease. We are fighting each other’s future disease possibilities with this group my sweet friends!!"

How AWESOME is that??????

If you are looking for this type of community I encourage you to seek out a Celebrate Recovery program. Celebrate Recovery is for anyone with a hurt, habit or hang-up and I hate to be the bearer of bad news but that is EVERYONE! The good news is that there is a group in St. Catharines and if you come - I will be there!

Another place to find this community is joining me in some of my adventures. My goal is to always create a safe place where you can be seen and heard, no masks allowed.

I just watched the attached video called Godspeed. I love that I serve a God that goes 3 miles per hour. One of the blessings of covid has been the slower pace, not something I plan on trading in.

If you watch the video and are intrigued, I plan on doing the Backyard Pilgrim - 40 Days at Godspeed. It will start March 6th and take us to Easter morning. You will need to purchase the book and we will meet to walk once a week for the 6 weeks to discuss our pilgrimage! I will be posting more in the days ahead, but if you are interested, let me know and I will add you to a Godspeed facebook group where we will prepare our hearts and minds.

It’s time to breathe some fresh air, enjoy the creation of seasons and the fellowship of others.

All females welcome. The trail will probably be a little messy/slippery, so please come prepared with solid boots and walking sticks if you have them. It is always a little more challenging in the wet and cold but so rewarding. Even if you have never hiked with me before - you are always welcome.

Please direct message me to let me know you are coming so I don’t leave you behind in the parking lot.

I have also created a hiking messenger group where I will be posting the hikes so you don’t miss them in your feed. Let me know if you would like me to add you.
