I’m sure you’ve heard the phrase, when the going gets tough, the tough get going. But what about writers? When the going gets tough, they write! And so I have. GOD, LIFE & HULA HOOPS is the result.
In 2012, I was diagnosed with bilateral brain tumors. Fortunately they were benign, but as I like to say, there are two definitions for benign. One being non- cancerous, the other meaning harmless—which my brain tumors definitely are not!
My life took a dramatic turn with the diagnosis and is still topsy-turvy to this day. Life isn’t always easy, but there is always hope because God doesn’t leave us alone in our battles.
God is so good! Even before I needed them, God taught me what I needed to stay in his peace and joy, in spite of all the difficulties I face because of the tumors. How did that happen? By learning to listen FOR and TO God.
In GOD, LIFE & HULA HOOPS, I share the “spiritual listening lessons” that have helped me face adversity in, what I hope is, a godly way.
God still speaks and he can use the oddest things to do so—even a hula hoop!
Are you listening?
