Lori's mom insists that she came out of the womb 'talking' and has not stopped since. Lori however, insists that over the past 45 years she has learned a thing or two about listening as well. Especially, when it is God who is doing the talking. She's a wannabe artist who is certain that "all who wander are not lost."
Having grown up in the church, Lori knows that her 'true spiritual journey' began with an experience with infertility and bulimia that helped her to surrender to the Lord, allowing HIM to break her and remake her.
The smile she wears tells that she is so happy to be on the journey that she is on now. A journey that has included homeschooling 3 children! Today those children are teenagers and many changes lie ahead! Lori is the owner of Internet Cafe Devotions, an online daily devotional site for women. She is also involved in several other online ministries.
Lori has recently come on staff at her church, Vintage 242, a plant church in her community, where she works part-time as the administrator. Lori is also involved in women's ministry and discipleship and she co-coordinates a Bible club in launched through her church called Camp Adventure at a local elementary school. She is acutely aware that this is all by the grace and mercy of God.
Praising HIM every step of the way, she encourages you to enjoy the journey with her at her personal website, All You Have to Give, where she can be found, enjoying each and every season to its fullest!
Lori and her family live in Atlanta, Georgia, the deep south where you'll often find them wandering around without shoes.

Bless all of you for following God's plan for your life. There needs to be many "lighthouses" for the lost to find Him. I agree that true Joy and endless energy (that I share) come from faith in Jesus and trying to follow His example. I am so glad this blog was shared with me. I look forward to following all the inspirational messages.
