I am of a certain age (some would say old) where, as a child, one of the most exciting times of the year—which is fast approaching—was when the Sears Wish Book (otherwise know as the Christmas catalog) was delivered to our mailbox. This would begin hours and hours, and hours, of flipping through the pages, … Continue reading Seeing the Resurrection and the Life With Childlike Faith

Holding In View the Way to Life
Social media seems to have taken over the world. Having followers has become a huge, really crazy, big deal. Internet celebrities carry a lot of weight with their followers. They have the ability to sway public opinion with just a word dropped here and there. Some social media personalities lead you positively to good places, … Continue reading Holding In View the Way to Life →
My Good Shepherd Lets Me See Peace
You can usually tell when a caregiver is family or a close friend of the person being cared for. There is a difference in the quality of care.

Looking Toward Eternity With Increased Longing
It has been a hard day in our cozy little house. My precious momma passed peacefully into her eternal home this morning. We were waiting and watching and loving on her as we could.

Look for the Correct Door
My momma told me recently that she wanted me to paint our front door purple. Over the past few years we have gone through the white door, the black door and the (current) red door phases.

Or can it start from somewhere, … Continue reading Do You Want to Watch Revival Spread →
Let Light Shine Out of the Darkness
Fall is upon us. It is my favorite season. I’m not sure if it is because of those childhood memories of heading back to school, high school football games, the upcoming holiday season or the cooler autumn temperatures. The one thing I do not care a great deal for is the days growing shorter and … Continue reading Let Light Shine Out of the Darkness →
Keep God’s Faithfulness Within Sight
Do you have a passage in the Bible that is your go-to for when you need to pull close to God? Because the fact is, we pull away from God. He never pulls away from us. He is always there. We ever so often take our own paths though. We put our eyes on something … Continue reading Keep God’s Faithfulness Within Sight →
