Water…a resource that restores, refreshes, nourishes, cleanses. Water gives us life! Water sustains us each day. Water is a powerful resource we can’t live without.

Words, similar to water, are powerful resources for growth; offering us truth, wisdom, encouragement, challenge, inspiration, and empowerment.  Words give a voice to the dreams of our hearts! Here is a small sampling of some words that have “watered” my heart, and have helped to transform and empower my life. My hope is that in reading these words, you’ll find encouragement and perhaps the beginnings of the change you desire! I invite you to “dive” into some of my favorite words of “living water”.

“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path” – Psalm 119:105
