Good Morning! It is a another rainy day here. I am looking outside at the two cute doves sitting on my deck. Whenever I see them, I know that God is watching over my family and me. During uncertain times, the Holy Spirit is a permanent sign of peace. I worry too much, if it… Continue reading Peace is a Breath Away

Love
Next Friday is Valentine's Day. My kids are excited to exchange cards with their classmates and eat cupcakes. It is all cute and fun. I had to look up the history of Valentine's Day. It seems to have involved Christians converting people, miracles of healing, bishops secretly marring couples and executions. I can't make this stuff… Continue reading Love
Stop and Take a Minute to Help
It is easy to get so busy in life, that you can no longer make time for others. I remember asking my sister a few years ago, if we could get together. She said that she was too busy for the entire month and could not get together. I remember being surprised that she could… Continue reading Stop and Take a Minute to Help
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

It focuses my mind on what is really important and gives me something to think about during the day. This morning, I… Continue reading What is Embedded in Your Heart?

God can help us, even when we think that we cannot possibly do it. God has given me so… Continue reading Keep On Seeking God’s Glory
Imitate Good
God protects us and watches over us. Some people just will not like you. They may even hate you. Even if you do nothing wrong, they will find reasons or even make up reasons to complain about you and hate you. Being on the receiving end of all this spite and hatred is hard to… Continue reading Imitate Good
Thanking God That My Plans Did Not Work
When I look at my life, I still try to find my own solutions. I am getting better about letting God handle situations in my life. I sometimes still find myself thinking that something looks good enough. God has something better, that I have not even imagined. Five years ago, we were going to sell… Continue reading Thanking God That My Plans Did Not Work
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
Praying That Your Struggles Turn to Joy
Today is Veteran's Day. I am thankful for all the men and women who have served in the military to protect our freedoms in the United States of America. Those that serve in the military make so many sacrifices. Freedom is not free. Some make the ultimate sacrifice and die, so we can have freedom.… Continue reading Praying That Your Struggles Turn to Joy
