Good morning. Yesterday was sunny and warm in Virginia. The neighborhood kids happily played and ran outside, soaking in the sun and warmth. I am not a fan of hot weather, but yesterday was in the mild mid-70's. It was quite nice. Today, it is rainy and chilly, and I cannot get warm. In a… Continue reading Maybe Our Purpose In Life Is Not So Complex

The Light of Life
Good Morning. Today, it is a very Springlike 65 degrees, in the winter. Usually we are in the 30s. I wonder if we will see snow this year... Today, when I opened the book of John, I read about the woman caught in adultery and Jesus as his own witness. The leaders brought a woman… Continue reading The Light of Life
Let God’s Glory Shine Through You
Good Morning! It is a cold day here. The kids are off school today for an administrative day. We made slime this morning. My daughter added pink food coloring, and my son added green food coloring to his slime. After washing their hands for 20 minutes, my son's hands are still a light shade of… Continue reading Let God’s Glory Shine Through You
God, Help My Unbelief
How do you pray? Do you pray with a wish list? Do you pray to take away your worries and sorrows? Do you pray for others? God wants to hear every prayer, big or small. There is no wrong way to pray. I read the scripture verse this morning that said when you ask for… Continue reading God, Help My Unbelief
Doing God’s Will Each Day
Do you ever feel distressed? Today, I felt distressed. Nothing has happened, yet I fear that I will make a mistake. I prayed to do God's will. I prayed that God would turn any mistakes into his good works. When I think of Jesus, I think of the divine part of Jesus. I cannot imagine… Continue reading Doing God’s Will Each Day

She is like a stealth elf. We have 8 days until Christmas! Today, is the first day that… Continue reading 8 Days Until Christmas

The closer I get to God, the more thankful I am that God is so, so good. Everything good… Continue reading God Fights For Us
Thankful For All The Good Stuff
Thanksgiving is almost here. Two more days. I love Thanksgiving. I love turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes and thanking God for all my blessings. Sometimes, it can be tense. You see family members that you only see a few times a year. Some family members know you, and still see you how you were. Even if… Continue reading Thankful For All The Good Stuff
Strive For a Clear Conscience
I remember my dad smiling and saying to me as a child, "Why, do you have a guilty conscience?", sometimes, when I would ask a question. This morning, I read a bible verse that brought that memory to my mind. This being so, I myself always strive to have a conscience without offense toward God… Continue reading Strive For a Clear Conscience
