This morning I read Galatians. It was written around 50 A.D., which is 1,970 years ago. The prayer could have been written today. God is eternal. God’s goodness reigns over heaven and earth. Our troubles and worries go from generation to generation. We dress differently and technology changes, but evil continues to lurk around earth.… Continue reading God Will Never Fail Us

Trust in God’s Timing
This morning it is raining in Virginia. It started raining last night, as the sky rumbled and growled. Hurricane Isaias is making its way down the coast. Surrounding areas are getting high winds, flooding and tornados. 2020 has been a doozy. Do you wonder when the Coronavirus Pandemic will end? When will we go back… Continue reading Trust in God’s Timing
Complete It
Did you ever start something new, and it was so much harder than you anticipated? I started a new exercise program, and wow, it is hard. I know it is good for me, but I have spent the past week using the heating pad twice a day. I know that I have to start somewhere.… Continue reading Complete It
Maybe Our Purpose In Life Is Not So Complex
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
Blessed Is She Who Believes
Happy Saturday! I hope that you have an amazing weekend. I don't have too many plans. This morning, I saw two doves outside on the deck. I love seeing doves, it is a visual reminder that God is watching over me. Having faith in what you cannot see can be challenging, when you, well, cannot… Continue reading Blessed Is She Who Believes
Peace Through The Storm
Some people say 2020 is a new decade and some say 2021 is a new decade. I do not know which one is technically correct, but I would like to think that I am starting a new decade. I start 2020 with sadness, having lost my mom to cancer on Christmas day and my dad… Continue reading Peace Through The Storm
Imagining a Majestic Christmas in Heaven with Angels Singing
This year has not gone as planned. In August, I was shocked when my mom was diagnosed with Stage 4 Glioblastoma Cancer, a brain tumor. She had brain surgery, radiation and chemo pills. My family has visited her a few times every week since her diagnosis. She started out positive. Each week, she declined physically… Continue reading Imagining a Majestic Christmas in Heaven with Angels Singing
Keep Believing and Have Faith
This morning, I went to Trader Joe's in Ashburn, VA. I saw a box of ornament cookies with icing and sprinkles to decorate them. We used to make cut-out cookies with my mom every year. This year, she just finished 6 weeks of radiation and chemo pills for Stage 4 Glioblastoma, and she is at… Continue reading Keep Believing and Have Faith
Keep Up The Faith
Today was an emotional day. We met my mom at her doctor's appointment. Her 6 week radiation and chemotherapy treatment will be done on Wednesday, the day before Thanksgiving. Nothing bad happened today. It is just emotionally exhausting. I cannot pretend, that she is the same, as she was three months ago. I try to… Continue reading Keep Up The Faith
In Everything, Give Thanks
One of the best things we can do for ourselves is to be thankful during difficult times. I have been trying to focus on the positive things in my life and not the difficulties, because difficulties will consume me. I opened up the bible to 1 Thessalonians this morning. It says to rejoice always. Some… Continue reading In Everything, Give Thanks
