Our Advent Celebration

We have never really celebrated the advent season in our home. I don’t know why exactly, it just wasn’t a tradition for my husband or I growing up. This year I decided it was something I wanted to incorporate into our family tradition. Of course, being the procrasitnator that I am, I didn’t really think [...]

Love is patient…

When people ask me how I choose what topics to study, the answer is always “I write about what I struggle with”, and that’s the truth. Yes, I am writing about patience even though I snapped at my mother and my husband this morning, Ugh. My husband often points out my impatience. I cannot disagree [...]

The Horror of Getting What You Want

How we pray and what we pray for has a massive impact on our lives. So often we pray for what we want. Maybe we want a new job. So we pray and pray “Please Please Please Lord, let me get this new position at work.” We pray fervently for what we want. We think [...]

Why I Write

Since this is a new website I thought I should republish my history and how I got started writing. I know some of you already know but for those who don’t, here you go… There has been some curiosity from friends as to why I write, so I figured I would give the explanation. I [...]

New website, Same me

My blog has a new address, a new look, and a new name but it’s still me. Welcome to the Grace Post. In the past few months I’ve been staying busy doing some book reviews. This has changed my needs for a website. I wanted to be able to separate them from my actual blog. [...]

Writing for Children

I have not posted in a while so I thought I would give you a quick update as to why. I have been writing some stories on The Law of God for a Children’s Bible Curriculum. I just started 2 weeks ago and they are due in a week! I have never written children’s literature [...]
