I was talking with some ladies this past week about coming up with some ministry ideas that would benefit the community and help folks that are in need. Then later in the week I was speaking to another lady on the phone and she was telling me that she is involved in something similar to … Continue reading Visualize What Building Each Other Up Looks Like

Examine Love and Forgiveness in Your Heart
Let’s face it. We are living in a world that would rather hold a grudge than offer love and forgiveness. How did we get here? We used to live in a kinder, gentler world. I think maybe there was a time when people had more respect for God, for others and for themselves. Respect for … Continue reading Examine Love and Forgiveness in Your Heart →
Recognize the Wonders of God
Sometimes you pray and you pray…and you pray for a circumstance to turn out the way you want it to. You want that great job. You want that great relationship and then marriage. You want your children to be strong and healthy. You want your life to be good. Those are not evil things to … Continue reading Recognize the Wonders of God →
Light and Strength
I talked recently about taking some time completely away from social media, and that included most television. For the past three weeks I have been mostly off line, with just enough to research and post my blogs. I really have not missed it. I told someone that for the past three weeks I have been … Continue reading Light and Strength →
Can You See the Way In
It seems like we are always trying to get out of something. When you are in school as a child you can’t wait to get out for summer break. When you are in high school or college you can’t wait to graduate and get out on your own. I have been in vehicles before that … Continue reading Can You See the Way In →

The light is always green. Their life looks flawless. Their heart seems to know no sorrow. Then, I think … Continue reading Seeing Trials Through a Different Perspective →

It has been a busy day. I love Sundays though! My time to write is shorter but my time to be blessed is longer. I am still catching up on rest and trying to get into some kind of normal schedule. With days and nights that were kind of here and there for the past … Continue reading Look Around for the Joy →
Watch the Living Water Rain Down
This week I started going through the “Lord’s Prayer — The Lord’s Requirements” reading plan from the YouVersion Bible App with my cousin. The devotion this morning, “Day 4 - Which Heaven,” caught my eye. In it they referenced Isaiah 55:10. This devotion was talking about the questions of, “Where is heaven? What is heaven? … Continue reading Watch the Living Water Rain Down →
Trees Looking for Rain
Two of my brothers and my sister-in-law took me to the movies yesterday. On the way home I noticed there were a lot of trees that had their leaves flipped over. I’ve always heard that when you see the leaves flipped over like that it means that it’s going to rain. I just always assume … Continue reading Trees Looking for Rain →
Friends Out of Sight
Last year I took a social media hiatus for quite a while. It was taking up too much of the free time that I did have. Truthfully, I did not miss it… much. I did miss seeing actual updates from family and friends that I didn’t see otherwise. I did keep a form of messaging. … Continue reading Friends Out of Sight →
