About Arrow

Hi and welcome! My pen name is Arrow. The word “arrow” intrigues me because it has two meanings that describe my passions. One, it is an instrument used intentionally to reach a target, and two, it shows the way. As a believer and follower of Jesus Christ, my goals are to live for Him, lead others to Him, and glorify the Heavenly Father. I pray that the stories, poems, song lyrics, and devotional thoughts I share on this website will always be inspired by the Holy Spirit and aligned with the truths found in God’s Word. My hope is that the words may penetrate your heart and point the way to a closer relationship with the Savior. I look forward to sharing my journey with you. Experiencing what God has in store is bound to be exciting! May you be blessed! ~ Arrow

Imagine quiet. Stillness. Take a deep breath and exhale l-o-n-g, releasing the weight of the day. This is a time to purposefully be with God. No one else. It takes effort. The phone needs silenced, TV turned off, tasks set … Continue reading →

Barely Hanging On

Posted on January 15, 2025 by Arrow

People overwhelmed by their current circumstances painfully admit, “I am barely hanging on!” Difficult seasons hit us all. The loss of a loved one, a health crisis, someone we care about deconstructing their faith, or something else. Envision someone “hanging … Continue reading →

Kick It

Posted on January 8, 2025 by Arrow

Apparently, I have a little OCD, obsessive-compulsive behavior. I notice that when I walk our neighborhood, I have an overwhelming urge to kick stray rocks off the sidewalk. Not all the rocks, mind you. Just the ones that are naturally … Continue reading →

Are We Ready?

Posted on January 1, 2025 by Arrow

Luckily, I had mentioned to my husband that I had a 9:00 physical therapy appointment. It wouldn’t have appeared so, the way I went about my morning activities. Quiet time, fiddling around in my office, and working out. Then I … Continue reading →

Tell What You Know

Posted on December 4, 2024 by Arrow

Many times, we fear we have nothing to say, no testimony worth sharing. We feel unable to explain the “whys” of this world. But we can share how Jesus has met our needs, how we have witnessed answered prayers, and experienced the Lord walking with us through difficult seasons. We can express who Jesus is to us.
