A couple of weeks ago I posted Do Not Trespass. I shared how many of the cracks and crevices of fear and worry etc. were exposed to the Light. And while I am human and will always experience those feelings, I was set free… Continue Reading “Christmas: do not trespass”

The battle of the last three years is once again changing. This enemy keeps changing the rules and each time I take the bait and let fear, worry, and sorrow cloud out God, good, and promises. As many of you know, my hero, my… Continue Reading “I am, I will”

If you’re scared, I can relate. If you’re worried, me too. And if safe isn’t how you feel, well I get it, but it isn’t true. There are mornings I wake up hopeful and I can sigh with ‘it was a good day’ by… Continue Reading “Safe Arms”

Looking up I noticed light creeping through the window edges, the fringes of dawn. As I raised the curtains I smiled at the beginning of a new day. I’m a morning person; I love first light. I’m also a walking, hiking person. Give me… Continue Reading “No comparison”

Last week there were issues beyond my control. And control has always been my go-to. I’m a slow learner, but I have improved. These issues were not life and death. Yet they seemed to loom large. And a verse that has been memorized by… Continue Reading “All my heart”

Settling back in the chair I write to clear my head. So many thoughts swirling. My husband’s chemo, my son’s broken collarbone and no surgeon available until days later, another hurricane coming, power outages and tons of rain. Ah me… As I sighed it… Continue Reading “Just the right time”

Time to work my way out of all that has silenced me the past few weeks. Only one way I know of: list the blessings. When I am lost in all that is wrong, first I hear my mother’s voice: ‘Count your blessings, not… Continue Reading “Counted”

I’m a words person. Years ago, Gary Smalley wrote the 5 Love Languages; mine is words. Flowers don’t do it. Gifts are ok. But a card with love words and additional handwritten sentiment, that’s what means the most to me. Our voice isn’t just… Continue Reading “What we need to: hear”

The last few weeks I’ve woven a faith journey into a road trip taken earlier this summer. Today, I’m who knows how high above the earth, with someone else at the wheel. Keeping it short this week by taking a few moments to ponder… Continue Reading “Recap”

I’m a list person. I love making a to-do list, a packing list, a grocery list – a list for my hubby (smile). I love crossing off the lists. So much so, that when I do something not on the list, I sometimes write… Continue Reading “Reminders”
