Sometimes the things you can't see help you see more clearly!
The memories that you make with children are so sweet. You watch them grow up but those memories stay with you even when they are adults with children of their own. You look back on the child that they were. When my middle niece came to live with me at five, we developed a night … Continue reading Keep Your Eyes on the Child
This blog’s Scripture passage reference: Psalm 119:130-135 My niece and I were in the car the other day and I asked about a song that was playing. She told me who it was and told me it was the same group that sang the version of Take Me Home Country Roads that I really like. … Continue reading The Longing and The Light
This blog’s Scripture passage reference: Psalm 119:126-129 I have a beautiful painting on the wall above my desk. The subject matter and artistry on the front of the picture make it beautiful, but the writing on the back of the picture is what makes it special. It truly was a gift of light. I am … Continue reading The Gift of Light
This blog’s Scripture passage reference: Psalm 119:102-106 I am a home body. I like to be home. It is my cozy, safe place, my happy place, the place that soothes my soul. It is not big, modern, fancy or upscale. It is like most sixty-plus year old homes, it needs a little maintenance-love. But the light … Continue reading Illuminate My Life
This post’s passage reference: Psalm 119:64-68 In Bible study the other night we were talking about wanting our homes to be peaceful places. (If you have heard me tell this story a hundred times….sorry!) I feel like encouraging, uplifting music plays a big part in creating that soothing atmosphere. I generally keep a Christian music station … Continue reading Joy to Brighten the Day
This post’s passage reference: Psalm 119:59-63 I went to the movies with friends and saw a sweet, faith based movie tonight. We got into the theatre after the lights had gone down. That makes it a little more challenging, but the strips of light along the side of the steps helped lead the way. It … Continue reading Walk the Path That is Lit By The Light of The World
This post’s passage reference: Psalm 119:48-53 Have you ever been challenged, out of the blue, by a stranger in a situation where you may not have been comfortable sharing your Christian witness? I guess since I have already hinted at my age once this week I might as well do it again. I had a … Continue reading Don’t Be Afraid to Be the Light that Filters Through the Dark
This post’s passage reference: Psalm 119:37-41 I listen to a radio station where they have this thing called a “30 day challenge.” The challenge for listeners is to listen only to this station for 30 days—no television programs, no news, no social media, only the encouraging, uplifting programming from the radio station. They want you … Continue reading Stay on the Path that is Well Lit
Most days I make myself a whipped coffee. Truthfully, it is more milk than coffee. But the drink is whipped with a whisk until it is a thick and chocolate creamy with that touch of coffee. Oh, did I forget to mention the chocolate? I use Nestle’s cocoa powder for the chocolate hit. I am … Continue reading Christ’s Protection Illuminates Our Future
I think we are back to following again today. It amazes me how “sheep-like” people really are and how quickly they can be turned aside from doing the right thing. No big story here, I’ve just thinking about some folks that seem to be on the “follow for the wrong reasons” train and I am … Continue reading Are You Following The Light?
