You know ‘those days’ – days when everything goes wrong, days when sorrow overwhelms, days you just wish would end. Then there are ‘those days’ that everything goes right, when sunshine prevails, days we wish wouldn’t end. That is life in this fallen world.… Continue Reading “Those Days…”

Hard – that’s all there is to it. Our world is in such turmoil. Here in America we’re (once again) tearing ourselves apart. The headlines revolve around a man who died – his family and friends despondent – and the lives of the policemen… Continue Reading “EVERY One…”

Worship day is different lately. No more dressing nice to head out and be with those who believe in the One True God. I would love to have a video of my hubby and I singing along with the worship songs during the online… Continue Reading “Rise Up…”

Things don’t always work out the way we think they should. Sometimes the thing you thought for sure would be nothing, is something. Here’s where I am, can you identify?

Not going many places these days. A world that used to zoom from here to there has slowed waaayyyy down. So welcome in so many ways. Love that being late isn’t really a thing right now (pretty much anyway). Love that money is being… Continue Reading “As You Go…”

Don’t you love a good book? Fiction or non-fiction – written well, I can’t get enough. Especially the happy ending ones. The book of John ends this way: “Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I… Continue Reading “Happy Ending…”

Easter is a few short days away. It will be the first one (since becoming a Christian) that I have not been in church celebrating all that this remembrance means. I’m hoping there’s a lot less bunnies and colored eggs this year – and… Continue Reading “Written…”

Some moments we just wish wouldn’t end. Moments like when a three year old puts his arm around your neck and says: “Grammy I stay with you forever!” In the midst of laughter and fun come heart-felt words spoken by the innocence of childhood.… Continue Reading “Forever…”

There’s a couple little guys that come over weekly to play. One is old enough to talk and tells me I’m his best ‘fwiend’ and throws his arms around my legs telling me he loves playing here. The other one says it all with… Continue Reading “When I Grow Up…”
