Last month, as we began a new year (2025), I felt the Lord nudging me in a direction that felt uncomfortable. “Lord, I am not sure about this. It is not anywhere near what I would call my “comfort zone.” Sometimes where He takes us may just be to test us or to show us … Continue reading A NEW WORK OF LOVE
Marriage
Pick and Choose!
Feeling an attack for truth, God’s truth, I awake at night unable to go back to sleep. It isn’t until I suitably appropriate the WHOLE armor, God’s full armor (Ephesians 6:10-18), that I find peace. Yet I still find myself wrestling with the outcome. Have you experienced trying to go back to sleep with a … Continue reading Pick and Choose!
Celebrating my Wedding Anniversary today: June 26!
My all-time favorite blog post is “the ‘Scarlett’ Letter”! You can read it here!

A Life of Progress!
Devouring romance novels and longing for the day when I would have my very own love story, I had fallen hook, line, and sinker into the world, the flesh and the devil’s definition of what that looked like and how to get it, Doing it my way!

BE HUMBLE & KIND
Indubitably, the little phrase, “be patient with all men” (1 Thessalonians 5:14c, NASB) was put in the Bible just for me! Even though my husband and I are approaching our 42nd Wedding Anniversary, the Lord continues for the googolth time, to point me in the direction I find hardest to climb: the pinnacle of patience … Continue reading BE HUMBLE & KIND
Ill-Equipped to Wed
What thoughts run through your head when you think of the month of June? Weddings come to my mind! Mostly, because it was in this wonderful month of the year that I pledged to take an ill-equipped 21-year-old as my husband. I use the word, ill-equipped, because he had no idea how his parade was … Continue reading Ill-Equipped to Wed
My Husband’s Special Ingredient 😊
Walking with an individual for 42 years certainly exposes areas of angst. And thus, the desire to walk away can become strong over time when we do not handle the conflicts correctly. Unashamedly, God’s Word prescriptively indicates we have everything we need to live godly lives (1 Peter 1:3). He has blessed us with spiritual … Continue reading My Husband’s Special Ingredient 😊
CAN IT REALLY BE?
Glaring at the calendar this morning, my mind struggled to fully comprehend that it would need to be flipped with the start of tomorrow. Has any year ever flown as fast? I find myself fumbling for the date so often. And yet, here we are at the precipice of the month of June. June means … Continue reading CAN IT REALLY BE?
Celebratory Fast Ending!
Let me tell you about a gift I was given on Sunday, June 26, 2022! As my husband and I sat in our church service on our 41st Wedding Anniversary, and the day we were ending our Celebratory Fast, a woman from our choir stepped forward to sing special music. She ministered beautifully in a … Continue reading Celebratory Fast Ending!
Celebratory Fast “Take 4”
Being so different and incredibly young, we were both filled with stubborn pride. He found it hard to apologize while I was the one saying “sorry.” Yet, he forgave quickly, while I was the one holding a grudge. We were sputtering and spiraling, but God had other plans. The Bible says, “two are better than … Continue reading Celebratory Fast “Take 4”
