What’s in your hand?
So, for quite some time it was suggested that I should be writing. I’ve never had much of a topic and always seemed to come up with an excuse and never considered myself a writer. When I moved a few months ago, I even designated the family room as an area that I would be […]
Being a Christian
Shortly before I started my own blog, I determined that I was to be a Proverbs 31 Woman. Part of that meant I had to read Proverbs 31, right? As usual, I got to my desk and quickly Googled Proverbs 31. By the way, I Google everything. I should own shares in the company. The […]
God wants to bless you!
This thought has been on my mind for a while now. I even had a title set aside. This story extends all the way back to when I was about 21. I worked in a local pharmacy as a cashier, and I had just started becoming Adventist, but I was new and had a job […]
Be still
Sometimes I just need a good cry. Is there anything wrong? Not really. Maybe I’m just trying to force circumstances and situations that I have absolutely no control over. I’m used to being in control in most areas of my life. I’m this super independent woman who has known what I’ve wanted for a long […]
What do you need to let go of?
I’m in awe.. I keep thinking of the little girl in the picture with her little teddy and Jesus was asking her to give it up while he was holding a bigger one behind His back. That picture has been stuck in my mind for a few years now. I cried out to God, He […]
Will you still love me – if….
Will you still love me – if?… That was the message of a recent devotion. An 8 year old child was asking her mother that very important question as she was beginning to learn the consequences of behavior. My 3 year old daughter has a book called ‘I love you Stinky Face’. It’s one that […]
Faith
So, sometimes I can’t make this stuff up if I tried. I’m not a very imaginative person. But God is amazing and funny and knows our hearts and needs long before we do. Today is my sabbath, and normally by now I’d be dressed and even at church. But today is one of those days […]
God will provide
A few days after I wrote this one, it rained hard, and then the most beautiful double rainbow appeared it the sky. It was definitely confirmation that God keeps His promises. I just heard the story of Abraham, Sarah and Isaac, as told by the bible story app for kids. It brought me to tears. […]
Keep your eyes on the prize!
Yesterday used to be one of two strength training days at the gym. They recently changed Tuesdays to Zumba from Monday. While the instructor for Monday’s Zumba was great, it wasn’t to my liking, I needed a little more rhythm, even though I can’t even dance and can barely follow the routine. This particular Tuesday...
I call you Friend
‘When my heart is overwhelmed, lead me to the rock, lead me to the rock, that is higher than I.’ So many songs that we hear and sing that we do not know the context. I woke up yesterday morning with that song in my head. I don’t think my heart is overwhelmed, but it’s […]
