Sharing YOUR story

Most of you don’t know but I am in the process of writing a book. As I contemplate each chapter in my life, I also think about the chapters in yours. What’s your story? Have you found the open door or are you still searching? I’d love to hear from you about your victories and your struggles in your daily life. I want to hear your stories so that as I write, I can help you find...

The struggles of Adoptees

It’s amazing thinking back on my own life, living my own life right now and meeting others who have been adopted as an adoptee myself. I have found that so many children that have been adopted into a loving, stable, wonderful home and yet they still have so many struggles and difficulties that a lot of times lead them down a very rough path…and somehow this links back to being...

Reflections on “October Baby”

The new Pro-Life movie, October Baby, opened in theaters last weekend. Haven’t heard of it yet? Below is a trailer for the movie: For opening weekend, October Baby finished No. 8 overall, despite being played in only 390 theaters when the other Top 10 movies played in an average of 2,500 theaters!

24 years ago today

24 years ago today, a miracle happened. A tiny baby was born who almost lost her life to two abortions…that was me! Today I have been celebrating that gift of life, of leading a pretty normal life despite the complications of my birth and my birth mothers decisions, the amazing family that I was adopted into that cherished me and loved me unconditionally and God’s grace on my life, my...

The Targeted Population…Planned Parenthood is there so why aren’t we?

I was recently at a Crisis Pregnancy Center with Abby that serves the roughest minority population and area in Houston, TX. You probably know this but Planned Parenthood also purposefully places their clinics in the middle of the roughest minority populations so that Planned Parenthood will be their only option. So, WHY are we placing most all of our crisis pregnancy centers in suburbia and white...

October Baby–or March Baby?

I finished watching my pre-screening of October Baby for the 3rd time. I am in awe of this movie…I am not going to ruin it for you since the movie hasn’t actually come out yet, but I do want to comment on a few things… Was it made about someone else’s life or mine? I know it wasn’t made about mine but the similarities are unbelievable. The abortion, the pieces...

Praying for our hearts

On Sunday, I was in church and the pastor was talking about our hearts towards God. A lot of times I wonder WHY don’t I have a crazy desire like other Christians I know to pursue God, a relationship with him, daily time in the word, being in community with others….etc. He talked a lot about how often times we try to do things (i.e. go to a bunch of bible studies or do a bunch of good...

What if we left those around us BLESSED & BETTERED?

“Let No One Ever Come to You without Leaving Better and Happier” Mother Teresa I cant think of a better example of someone who has done this consistently and made their life about doing this…leaving every person that came to her better and happier! What if we did this? In today’s society we are all so caught up in our own lives that we don’t think about how our actions or words...

Recovery…It’s HARD

Recovery…It’s HARD The other day I was at a local church for a women’s conference. My friend Thomas had put this event together…I met Thomas through friends because we both love life, talking about life and Thomas has really poured his heart and his God-given skills into helping get the truth out about abortion and it’s affects of women, men and those around all of us. At some point...
