About

Life can be disappointing at times, can’t it? And yet, it can be the most wonderful too. I live smack dab in the middle of these hills and valleys. Currently, my husband and I are empty nesters. We have been now for about 1 1/2 years. Our son and his wife moved to Kentucky with our twin grandsons, while our daughter began her own adventure in Florida. What about me? I am here in Minnesota with my woodsy warrior and our dog Lola.

I am at the crossroads of having been a stay-at-home mother to now what do I do Lord? While my children were in college, I had become a writer. I learned to publish a book as well as learn how to blog and post on social media. This is how this website has come about. Five years have passed and I am searching for the next big thing. Being a SAHM was a big thing for me. I loved it! But now, my kids have lives of their own and I am waiting for God to show me what is next for me. Retirement is on the horizon, yet Rob and I aren’t quite ready for that season.

In the meantime, I pray that this website will encourage and equip anyone who desires to have a fulfilling life. I have found one way to do this. It is found in the person of Jesus Christ and God’s Word. Jesus has been 100% faithful to me, and He desires for you to discover His faithfulness too.

I am known as the “crazy coaster lady”, riding roller coasters is my happy place. I also love cuddling animals, mentoring women, serving my family and uplifting those around me. I love to be creative whether drawing or cross-stitching. I recently checked off my bucket list, watercolor painting. I am enjoying it. I am a breast cancer survivor as well as an experienced auntie. I’ve been one since I was three years old.

I find I am braver in this mature season, willing to try new things and continuing to seek truth. I have been seeking truth since I was thirteen. What I have discovered is this truth has changed me from the inside out. This truth has healed and calmed my anger as well as iron out my temperamental mindset. I am becoming freer each day to be who I was intended. No one becomes truly free while on this earth but we each are a work in progress to getting there. What I have experienced, I want every other person to know the freedom that sets your soul free!

I would love to hear from you. You can contact me at caroljoygerman@gmail.com.
