Hearing from my nephew in prison or getting an update through my sister (his mother), I never tire of hearing what amazing work the Lord is accomplishing. However, there are those times when I fall on my face crying out for God’s great hand of protection or deliverance even from a line up. Those are … Continue reading My Nephew & The Line UP!
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 😊

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?
A Driven Mind!
Have you ever just allowed your mind to wander? Well, in different ways, through different circumstances the Lord has impressed upon me, the dangers that lurk from an undisciplined mind. And since my last post, The Mind is a Battleground, I have been studying further passages on this very important topic. As I have mentioned … Continue reading A Driven Mind!
The Mind is a Battleground!
To be perfectly honest, I struggle daily! I have been fighting a battle for so long; Sometimes I grow weary and want to quit! But I must never give in; Because if I do, Satan will steal any hope I have of living a victorious life! Jesus Christ paved the way and laid the groundwork, … Continue reading The Mind is a Battleground!
Shall We Wait until Heaven?
Finding God! Traveling down the interstate occupying the front passenger seat entranced with the thought, if only I could throw myself out the car door and end it all. There was so much of a revengeful spirit in that thinking. Many broken years led to an unhealthy positioning of the mind! And now I found … Continue reading Shall We Wait until Heaven?
Plant-based Retreat
It was far from perfect but I enjoyed discovering some new loves!
A weighty project: cleaning out flowerbeds!
A weighty project is cleaning out my flowerbeds! I have, twice now, made very poor decisions for what I sowed. Certainly, I have made many more than two, but this is concerning flowerbeds. One of my four big flowerbeds is a double-sided bed, covering a part of the front fence and continuing behind the fence. … Continue reading A weighty project: cleaning out flowerbeds!
