Recently, I found myself grappling with a sense of melancholy that seemed to wrap around me like a thick fog. Interestingly enough, it didn’t stem from any specific event or circumstance, but rather emerged from a blend of emotions. It left me feeling unmotivated and somewhat heavy-hearted. Have you ever felt a little down for no particular reason? It's a curious beast! So what's a gal to do when emotions want to take over, and you have to fight for your smile? On this part

2025 was a truly remarkable year for the Seamon family, filled with joy and excitement as we welcomed not just one, but two precious new grand-babies into our lives! The arrival of these little ones has brought a renewed sense of happiness and an abundance of love filling our hearts with joy. First, we were absolutely thrilled to welcome our handsome grandson, whose presence has already begun to weave a beautiful tapestry of cherished memories. Our youngest son, Drew and his

Merry 2025 Christmas, Friends! As we gather together to celebrate this "most wonderful time of the year," I invite you to take a moment and reflect on the reason for the season. The year 2025 has brought my family new experiences, new grand-babies, a new book, a new career, a few challenges, but also great triumphs! I am so grateful my Abba Father has been with me every step of the way. He is my good Shepherd in the highs and lows. I praise Him as we find ourselves in the hea

We are not fancy at the old farmhouse. Not even close. :) However, I have been busy creating a cozy and comfortable home for the holidays!! And, I must say, it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas at the old farmstead! From the plump Christmas tree with dancing white lights to gatherings around the sticky kitchen table to visits with friends, I love everything Christmas! However, one thing that is challenging this time of year is the rush of this hectic season. In the mid

It is easy to get overwhelmed by the Christmas rush. There's gifts to buy, goodies to bake, family to see, parties to attend etc. Often there is much to do and little time to do it! I can feel overwhelmed. However, I am learning I can be overwhelmed by the to-do list, or I can choose to be overwhelmed by the goodness of the season. Here are some truths that are helping me make the better choice. Anxiety is minimized, when a correct perspective is maximized. It is ABSOLUTELY

Friends!!!! I am thrilled to announce the release of "A Year of Hope!" I am honored to have a small part of this new devotional!

My home was absolutely buzzing with excitement this Thanksgiving as grown-kids streamed through the back door, arms full of green beans and grand babies. Nanny came with her legendary dish that is my childhood in a bite. Another family member came in early to oversee decorating and desserts. Yes, sometimes everyone can come home for the holidays, but other times we miss a few. We have missed Terry's mom and dad for many Thanksgivings. This year we're are missing a few more,

No words of mine can heal the pain this world gives. However, my Lord's truths will change the darkest of situations. So when life is hard, I go to Him. Time with the Master changes my perspective . Time with my Abba Father can heal one's soul. In my hard places, I look for holy spaces. In my hard places, I look for holy spaces. How about you? Are you in hard places today? Where do you run when life is gut-wrenching? My voice is to 'taste and see; the goodness of God. Today

I love a good Ladies Event! There is nothing more thrilling than the deep, heart-filling joy of a holiday party, especially when you’re gathering with Christian friends who truly cherish the reason for the season! A couple of years ago, I was blessed to share a devotional at a beautiful Ladies Holiday Party! We gathered at Mt Moriah Baptist Church for a fun evening of friendship, yummy food and Bible study. This visit was an absolutely joy! From the gorgeous, lovingly decora

I missed breakfast and was still late for the appointment. I totally forgot to wrap up a task as my phone kept buzzing with texts. My email inbox was filling up as quickly as my laundry basket. Grocery shopping would have to wait for another time. Various commitments and speaking gigs were clamoring for my attention. Ever feel like you've taken on too much and can't handle it all? Totally overwhelmed. Overwhelmed is defined as “to bury or drown under a huge mass” (Oxford Amer

Once upon a time, Terry and I fought over the last bite of my sandwich! Now, often in those early years of marriage, I would share whatever I could not finish on my plate. But this time, I wanted it all and replied with harshness. This, of course, offended him, to which he responded, "I would not eat that bite now if it were the last morsel of food left on the planet. Yeah, not our finest moment!  Proverbs 18:21 (Message) states, "Words kill, words give life. They are either

Recently, while on my way home, I accidentally backed into another car. I never saw the car, though I was moving very slowly. How did I manage this incredible feat? Well, my brain was hosting other thoughts and decisions, and apparently, it forgot to invite the part of me that pays attention to driving. I was in another world until - bam!- the gentle nudge of reality and the other car jolted me back to earth. Suddenly, I was hyper-aware of the world around me—the road, the ca

Hey Hey Friends- I am clapping with excitement and can't even get my words out! On November 15, I am off for a grand adventure with the sweet ladies of Mt Moriah Baptist Church! This will be a fun night of worship, a catered dinner and teaching by yours truly! If you can sneak away for a few hours, join me! I promise you will feel right at home. The ladies of this church are delightful (You can DM me for more info.) Know that the ticket sales run through Nov 2, 2025 and the

Back in my high school days (feels like a hundred years ago—haha!), I had an incredible, godly lady who inspired me to dive into Psalm 1. She challenged me to apply it to my life. She didn't just suggest it; she dared me and a few friends to memorize the passage! Now, I'm not someone who memorizes things easily, but I accepted the challenge. As I read and reread those words and meditated on their meaning, the message became deeply and meaningfully engraved upon my heart. Thes
