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.

A Planting of the Lord! (A 10th Season Begins)
One of my loves is perusing a plant nursery. Not only do I enjoy checking out the wide variety of plant life, but as my dear husband knows, I rarely go home empty handed.
