God designed us to be securely attached in relationships. With Him and others. When our relationships go well, we do well in life. When our relationships are not doing well, our lives can be thrown into anguish and we start swirling. Understanding Attachment Patterns can give us insight into what is behind the quality of […]
The puddles on the floor started the saga. Whenever it rained, my sunroom floor was wet. Over the years, time had taken it’s toll …the seals of every glass in the enclosure were in need of being re-sealed. Rain came again, and so did the puddle. Hmmm… A problem with the flashings between the sunroom […]
How does the healing and growth I experience on this side of the transition door impact what happens on the other side? Jesus told us to lay up treasures in heaven, letting us know that what we do here impacts the quality of our eternal destiny. God is eternal and will exist forever. I entered […]
In some of my trainings, I ask: What makes the difference in why some people are able to ‘hear’ and receive logically helpful information and others are not? Why at times do people have all the data needed to make wise choices and still not be able to follow through? As I was continuing […]
If only I could remain more stable when hard situations blow into my life! I don’t want trials and hard stuff to pull the rug out from under my feet. I would like to be able to claim, like Apostle Paul, that although he went through some horrific times and was almost despairing, he was […]
Several years ago, someone ‘joined’ me to a Facebook group. A group created for those who attended the same boarding school that I grew up in. For a lengthy period of time I paid little attention when posts were added. I was aware of an almost nebulous sense of discomfort within when as I scrolled […]

Conversations insisting that because we are told in Isaiah 53: 5 “He was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we […]
I think it was in 1997. A rough year for me. I hit a low spell and while driving down a freeway I made my case to God why it would be a good idea for Him to let me join Him in heaven. It went something like this. “You say that what matters most […]
“You didn’t have a moment of disconnect. Yours started pre-birth and went through childhood and on!” A short while back I was interacting with our Immanuel regarding some on going lingering life sensations, including feeling adrift in life. Out of the blue, a vivid recall of an experiment surprisingly came to mind. The “Silent Face” […]
I’m turning 60 this year! This is no little thing! Considering the years I struggled with suicidal drives and the years of significant health issues, it is no little thing that this year I have made it 60 years! I was talking with a friend about this remarkable milestone, voicing that I wanted to do […]
