WELCOME to Living Stones 4 Moms!
For over 3 years this was my place of cyber-rest. This is where I would share with you my thoughts about certain scriptures or things that the Lord has taught me or is teaching me now.
I have recently moved my blog to another site, A Little This~A Little That. This is where I am blogging about what the Lord is teaching me, my family, managing your home & about homeschooling.
This site will remain, but I will not be adding devotionals to it. This will be my ministry site until the other is fully built(it is under construction). You can still contact me through this site. Just click the “contact” button at the top of the page.
Living Stones is my opportunity to encourage you in your Biblical role as a wife and mother. It is so hard to live our lives according to God’s Word when our society is going the opposite direction. But it is possible. My prayer is that you will feel encouraged and rejuvenated by the words the Lord has given me. I write for myself, I just let you read it. I have not learned it all or know it all. I am still learning just like you. I make big mistakes everyday with my kids and my husband. But as long as I seek my Lord Jesus and ask for his forgiveness he blesses me with grace and mercy to start all over again tomorrow!
If you would like to contact me concerning speaking to your women’s group please use the contact form on the Contact page, or email me at the address below.
Rebuilt to His Glory!

Hey, I just saw the link to the Living Stones blog on your family blog, Dana! How exciting! I was sad to miss the conference last year, so perhaps I can glean some wisdom from the blog.
Dana- I am inspired by your initiative on two accounts. I, too have a passion for encouraging moms in the way of Jesus! I have been active in the Motherwise ministry doing just that. I am also of the same mindset as you that documenting and journalling my God stories are so important–I just haven’t made the time as yet to do it! So you have inspird the writer in me. Found out about your blog in MOMYS or Quiverful. Jen
Hi, Dana,
What a beautiful family you have. I am thankful for your very encouraging articles. Mom’s have such a significant role to play in the lives of their children. When they are being drained daily, it is wonderful to have blogs like yours to fill themselves up–spiritually and emotionally—and to know they are not alone. God’s grace to you as you continue to walk this road with Him. I am just beginning to write on my own blog, but between writing on other projects, taking care of my family and life, I am quite slow at getting new material. It is godowndancing.blogspot.com if you ever want to visit. Many blessings to you!
Thank you for your willingness to obey God in this whole adventure–both the mothering part and the ministry part. I have also recently surrendered to God’s call to encourage women, especially mothers. I am scared to death to even own to it yet–as I still have very young children and massive doubts about what I have to offer anyone. Yet as I obey each day and see Him work in women’s lives, it is slowly sinking in that it is WHAT HE HAS TO SAY, not me. So I am committed to obey. It takes some courage and faith to do what you’re doing, and I am encouraged further by seeing your site–both in my mothering and in ministry. Thank you!
Blessings to you!

Hey Dana,
Thanks again for your website. I just had time to read about finding time for God in your busy day. What a blessing! You get it!! Now I have no excuse!!:) Anyway, thank you for sharing your heart so openly. I think this is the only true way God can use us and our lives to minister to others. I have struggled with depression since Patrick was a baby and I totally agree with you about Satan using that to pull us far away from God. I praise God that His power in us is victorious over the lies of Satan. Choices-you are so right. Everyday, every minute, I have the choice to listen and give in to those lies, or submit to His best choice and relish in his comfort and love.
I would be interested in any other articles or writings you have done on depression or along those lines.
Again, thank you for following God’s tugging on your heart. He has used your words today to really comfort me.
Have a blessed evening.
Love,
Laura
