Guess What?

Norma Dougherty • December 15, 2015

Guess What? I have been a busy girl in 2015!!! Not only is “Island Girl: A Triumph of the Spirit” published, but it is also gaining legs!

It is touching many hearts with my story of how God works in our lives through His Son Jesus. In addition, I have had several book signings, created a new website, done several radio interviews, and placed a speaking video on my website. I have even learned a bit about how to do social media!!???

I invite you to explore the new version of normajdougherty.com. Perhaps it will encourage you to give a copy of my book to yourself, or to a friend so that her heart will be touched also. I think, especially at Christmas, the greatest gift we can give one another is our sincere love.

This kind of agape love (unconditional love) comes only through Jesus, not from expensive gifts. That is the reason we celebrate His birth at Christmas….the reason for the season!

Enjoy the site and I hope you have the best Christmas ever!!!

Keeping Up In 2023

I was always pursuing perfection, wanting the best for myself, my family and my life. So intentional doing everything just right, till one day, I woke up and realized I was actually paralyzed by my pursuit of perfection.
Is your heart yearning for something special.

EVEN IF

We all have those dreams for something we feel is missing in our lives. We all visualize what life would be like if we were able to achieve or acquire that dream.

Who Are You

We can all learn to share God’s message, his good news with others. Why? Because we will know, believe and understand how great and valuable it is for each one of us…so valuable that we won’t be able to keep it to ourselves.
Do your boundaries reflect your values

Establishing Boundaries

By Norma Joyce Dougherty • October 28, 2021
We don’t always guard our hearts do we? Our hearts can fill us with desires for things that may not be in our best interests; that may not even be in God’s will for our lives or reflect His best purpose and plan for our lives.
