Mediocrity to Maturity, A Journey through Despair and Repair
Does this mean that I've arrived? No! It only means that I am experienced in the...'school of hard knocks.'
And, much like the apostle Paul, I plan to keep moving forward with passion and purpose in every stride.
Mediocrity to Maturity is an honest, heartwarming venture through the realm of mediocrity; a place where I spent too much time as a young adult. Thank goodness, I finally realized that God was the driving force that I needed in life.
Now, I am eager to share a few basic life-changing principles that will help you move forward too--Simple disciplines cultivated into daily life that will lead you into a more abundant life.
My personal journey has taken me from rheumatic fever at age six through a twenty-four year bout with seizures. In June of 1999 I went through a surgical procedure called a 'right-temporal lobectomy'...simply the removal of a portion of my right temporal lobe.
This experience has caused me to be...
Radically healed and seizure-free!
To God be the glory!

Obviously, the greatest impact in my life comes from Knowing the Lord, Jesus Christ. Without Him, I probably would not be here, but because of Him, I can tell you that miracles do still happen. I am walking proof.
Thank you for dropping into my den... I do hope your heart is encouraged by the words on this page...

Frances' believes her greatest achievement came through raising a wonderful son--a once-small boy with a great big heart who became an active marine. After serving nine years in the Marine Corps and 2 tours in Iraq, he settled in Maryland and works in the DC area.
Although her son has settled far from home, Frances trusts that God has him exactly where He needs him to be for such a time as this.
Frances also has charming grandkids!
