Restricted Vision, Unburdened Sight
Sometimes the things you can't see help you see more clearly!
It is Christmas Eve. Well. Christmas Eve morning as I post this, but we will go with Christmas Eve. Have you ever thought about heaven on Christmas Eve? I’m not necessarily talking about today as the day before Christmas. Have you ever really thought about how the citizens of heaven were feeling the day before … Continue reading Look At It From Their Point of View
Short Soapbox moment.... We just finished up Beth Moore’s study of the Book of Daniel. It is an amazing, in-depth study. It is very intense, but sheds a lot of light on the culture we are living in today. Something troubling my heart tonight is that this message, one of the messages of Daniel, is … Continue reading Observation From the Soapbox
One of the most discouraging things about my vision difficulties is the loss of my driving privileges. I'm not whining, promise! There are just work-arounds that sometimes need to be done for normal, everyday things. Something I really miss is being able to jump in the car and run to the store.

But they say confession is good for the soul. <SIGH> Last night as I was doing dishes, I dropped the lid to a heavy sauce pan and it dead-on centered the nail of the second … Continue reading Keep Your Eyes Open—the Struggle is Real!

The Pastor of my heart and under whose ministry I have had the most spiritual growth, has gone on home. My heart is sad, but my heart is … Continue reading A Visible Legacy Left Behind
Upfront. Soap Box. (Not about the election!) A little long. History is involved. Definitely SOAP BOX. I was recently talking with a twenty-two year old. We were having a conversation about making the most of the "mask" thing and having some fun with it by using different holiday themed patterns to make a some interesting … Continue reading A Tear in My Eye for the Past and Present
I threw away an old candy box today. No one else probably remembers the significance of this box… But I do. It signifies love felt deeply. It signifies hope. It signifies dreams. It signifies loss. It signifies disappointments. It signifies joy, yet it signifies sadness. That is a whole lot for one little paper box … Continue reading Look for God’s Love
Starting your senior year of high school has it's own unique stresses and anxieties -- without the added strain of being the new kid in the classroom.

My niece and I were at the track last week, walking. Actually, she was walking with a friend, and I was walking with my headphones.
