On this beautiful- gift-of-a- morning in Colorado, and keeping with my “no dairy, no sugar” fast, I enjoyed a breakfast of scrambled eggs, grits and bacon. But what I’ve enjoyed the most is spending time with precious granddaughters. They provide hours of fun and making sure I sleep well at night 😉 - But not … Continue reading A Reward From Him
No Dairy, No Sugar Fast
Ordered Steps!
Grabbed a banana this morning and headed out the door! Who else flys to Colorado to see an eye specialist?! Not exactly what I had planned but so thankful to get answers to the issues that have flared up recently besides old ones that had no answer. The mind of man plans his way, But … Continue reading Ordered Steps!

Here I am. My alarm woke me at 3 a.m. And now I sit sipping on a hot “unsweetened” earl grey tea waiting for my flight ✈️ To be honest with you: I really am just tolerating the tea, especially without sweetener. I LOVE Starbucks! And I love their cold brew pumpkin with the cream … Continue reading Destination: Colorado
Music is not in Externals, but the Soul
Those of you who follow my blog know my favorite devotional is probably my Streams in the Desert 1. No matter how many times I read the stories, they still move me to tears. And one of my favorite accounts is about the great violinist, Paganini. He came out before his audience one day and … Continue reading Music is not in Externals, but the Soul

After hearing and reading much on Juicing, I wanted to do something different for my fifth “no dairy, no sugar” fast. My sweet, generous hubby let me investigate, and along with the help of my eldest daughter, I found the ideal juicer. I need to divulge; I’ve become a little obsessed. I love juicing, not … Continue reading Masterpiece
Last Lap!
In my little hometown of Reeves, growing up with basketball as the favored sport was inevitable. And getting to play basketball was an honor. Anyone who has played a sport knows the conditioning it takes to get into shape to play in the game. Without a doubt, some of the greatest words you could ever … Continue reading Last Lap!
Two Things
So much can be learned from God’s creation, and especially the animal world. For instance, there are two times a deer develops an insatiable thirst for water—when fleeing from danger and when withstanding an opponent in combat. Similarly, we are to develop a spiritual thirst for God’s Word by fleeing from youthful lust and resisting … Continue reading Two Things
One Slice!
During the last two months of 2020 and the first two months of 2021, I was away more than I was home. Saying goodbye to my sister-in-law was an experience I did not handle well. Having peace through the sorrow of her death (since I knew she was with Jesus in heaven) was one thing … Continue reading One Slice!
Prayerfully Sweet
The sign flashing “HOT” meant only one thing, a delightful treat just waiting for me to indulge! My love affair with glazed Krispy Kreme Doughnuts was serious. There was a time I could devour half a dozen without a thought to self-control or health issues ever being a problem. Now, as I work toward a … Continue reading Prayerfully Sweet
It’s A New Dawn; It’s A New Day!
“But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the surpassing greatness of the power may be of God and not from ourselves."2 Corinthians 4:7, NASB If I just try to muster up the strength I will fail every time, but thankfully, the power of God comes flooding in as I open my Bible and … Continue reading It’s A New Dawn; It’s A New Day!
