Walking by Faith 

In II Corinthians 5:7, the Bible says, "For we walk by faith, not by sight."

In my case, the Lord usually says no or wait. That's been the norm most of my Christian life. And that's okay. He's the sovereign, all knowing God.

Lately I've lifted a lot of prayers up to the Lord and in many cases, I've received a glorious yes. Which of course delights me, but it's also got me to thinking. Thinking about not just the answered prayer, but my feelings and my faith before the prayer was answered.

The period of time before we get an answer, be it yes, no, or wait, is precious, special but hard to describe. It's a place of intimacy, trust, and unexpected peace. Peace that only God can provide. It's a magnificent position in which to stand. A unique relationship with the Creator. We don't possess the object of our request yet, and furthermore we don't know if it will ever come, but still we walk in hope, spurred on by our faith. Hope that we'll attain the desire of our heart, though God may change what that is.

I am content in knowing that whatever God says, whatever I have or don't have, the God of the universe is in control and knows my needs. He hears and answers according to my best interest because I'm His child He dearly loves. Whatever answer I receive is enough. I can walk in peace and joy. That's walking by faith.



About The Long Way Home

David Maguire's tour of duty in Germany is over, and he's returning home to Oak Mountain, Alabama in search of a job. After a long flight from Frankfort, he shares an Uber with Dallas resident Jada Atwood.

Jada Atwood, a registered nurse midwife, is on her way to a medical conference in Queens. If only she could live up to her father's legacy at the hospital where she works, she could prove worthy of his reputation. Marriage awaits yet her fiancé has yet to offer a ring.

When the Uber driver must make a stop to pick up a passenger at a Queens shopping center, two men who robbed a nearby bank commandeer the Ford as a getaway car. But when they discover two passengers, they have to get rid of the extra baggage.

After the kidnappers murder the Uber driver, David and Jada fear for their lives. Will they find their way home or die in a Pennsylvania forest?

Looking Out the Window: Memories on the Heart

Several weeks ago my husband, Rick, and I ate at a restaurant we frequent fairly regularly. The cute, young waitress who usually waits on us took our orders for burgers and fries. I’ll call her Mandy. As usual Mandy’s smile and bubbly personality brightened our day. We giggled and confessed to her that we shouldn’t eat the fries, but we were going to do it just this once. She joked. “Okay, you’re being bad today.” Not long after we got our food a couple came in and sat in the booth behind us. Mandy walked up to the table with her big grin. “Hi, how are you?” she asked. The man, who had salt and pepper colored hair and a pudgy face, spoke in a harsh tone, “I want the steak.” “Sure, which one would you like?” Mandy asked. “I don’t want you to put it in the microwave. That will make it tough. Do you understand?” Mandy’s lips turned down. “Yes sir, which one do you want to order?” “I want it medium rare. I don’t want blood oozing out of it. I want it cooked right.” “Yes sir, which steak di

It's my pleasure.  I’m happy to share with you a Bible verse and a recipe, and tell you about my newest book! One of my favorite Bible verses is Romans 10:9.  “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” I love this verse because it distills down the message of Christianity to its simplest elements. So often people add to the gospel, but it really all comes down to our belief in Jesus’ saving work on the cross. This verse tends to make its way into my writing. It’s in my latest novel, Moonlight and Mystery, when the heroine, Beth attends a carnival at a
