      <description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve spent the past several years worrying about making money at this writing ministry. And to be quite honest, I&#8217;ve let the fluctuations of that reality affect my mood and worth. You may have even seen traces of that here on my blog. I won&#8217;t reiterate all that because I]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[I drove my high school kids to school recently. As we left our development, we noticed my friend who teaches at the school, pull out behind us. A few days prior, I worked on invitations for a party here at my house, and I’d forgotten to invite her, though she]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[I watched the movie 42 last week, and I cried several times. God used the movie to speak to me profoundly, and in some ways I&#8217;m not even sure I can put words to paper about the change in me. You see, God has shown me something way down deep.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[I get a lot of emails asking perplexing, painful, amazing questions. Today I&#8217;m going to attempt to answer (if there is such a thing as a &#8220;correct&#8221; answer) a question I&#8217;ve wrestled with for years. See if you relate to Amy&#8217;s dilemma. Hi Mary, Thank you for your blog. I]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Sometimes my life is so full of people, I don’t have time to run back to my computer and share my report. Such has been my life of late. Recently I spent a day with a group of women for a women’s retreat, but how it came about surprises me]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[In the aftermath of speaking, I often get sick. This happens a lot. I expend quite a bit of me when I speak, pouring heart and soul into my messages, then praying for people afterward. So I spent Monday resting. One of the things I watched was a documentary about]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[One of the things I learned from Malcolm Gladwell’s The Tipping Point is that I am a connector. (You can check and see if you are one by clicking here). I gain great satisfaction in connecting people together, and I love to see how God beautifully weaves our stories together.Recently]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[I’m not sure why, but I’ve been on the brink of tears lately—most likely because of my travel schedule and how much I feel I’m giving out. Recently I spent time with a church in the heart of the nation, an avowed farming community whose spring fields boasted nubile green]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[In this attempt to simplify and hone, God has been very clear with me.

To recapture the energy I need]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[This week I&#8217;ve been a good little runner girl, jogging several days in a row in my neighborhood. I happened upon one yard that surprised me. In it stood two campaign signs, both candidates vying for one position. It would be like seeing an Obama and a Romney sign on]]></description>
