Five Years Without You!
After reading the following devotional several days ago, I marked the page to remind myself to use it for this particular milestone… Sorrow is better than laughter; for by the sadness of the countenance the heart is made better (Ecclesiastes 7:3). When sorrow comes under the power of divine grace, it works out a manifold … Continue reading Five Years Without You!
The Finest Brew!
Something has been brewing in the back of my mind. While seemingly not popular, it is what the Lord brought to me face to face through my periodic fasting sessions. These annual and periodic fasting sessions are for the purpose of growing closer to my Savior and King and having the eyes of my heart … Continue reading The Finest Brew!
“Tis the season to be comfy!”
Sometime ago, we stayed in a hotel where I had to share a lumpy double bed with a restless bed hog with a propensity for talking in their sleep. The room being on the smaller side, with an uncomfortable bed (as I previously mentioned), neither were there enough towel racks or hooks, there was one … Continue reading “Tis the season to be comfy!”
Why at Christmas time?
How do we make sense of it all? And especially at Christmas time. December: A month filled with lights, laughter, yummy things to eat and sweet surprises wrapped up in merry-colored paper; Yet, once again at the close of another year shock waves erupt through communities, family disputes, dangers, disappointments, breakups, and disease ever present. … Continue reading Why at Christmas time?
A WORD of explanation!

SAVED FROM A TETTER-TOTTERING HALO
My closest companion is without a doubt my bifocals; without them I cannot read a lick! When not housed on the bridge of my nose, they are placed insecurely on the crown of my head. Unfortunately, it is a rather precarious predicament on top of the head as I busily go about my day. It … Continue reading SAVED FROM A TETTER-TOTTERING HALO
Anthony Jacque
After arriving home from a Tennessee Thanksgiving, I'm sitting at my computer pondering the nearness of God and asking Him to fill my nephew with that nearness as he celebrates yet another birthday in prison (he turns 46). From my last correspondence with him, I am saddened to lose the advantage of writing to him … Continue reading Anthony Jacque
I’m So Glad I live in a World where there are Octobers
Each year ideas run through my mind of what a birthday should look like and sometimes they may seem pretty farfetched: a Bahama cruise, a night on the Riveria, a Hawaiian vacation, a scenic tour to the largest waterfall destination or a Scandinavian adventure. Those are just a few 😉 Looking back on what actually … Continue reading I’m So Glad I live in a World where there are Octobers
A Heart Committed to Falling into Line! (finalizing a September fast)
I literally walked and ran through the month of September (2025), with a focus on my 9th “fast,” preparing for the next 5 K I would run (October 11); it was my second ever to run with the first one in May of this year. As I increased my workouts, my confidence grew. I was … Continue reading A Heart Committed to Falling into Line! (finalizing a September fast)
