I’m pretty sure I wrote this in a previous post, but I never checked. That’s okay because it is important to reflect on how we respond. Each day our thoughts are on what must be accomplished. From work, home, kids or school, there is always things to do. But how we go about doing them... Continue Reading →
The Easy Road
How are you getting there? When my husband and I take a weekend trip, we usually look at the drive on MapQuest ahead of time to see how far it is and alternate routes. I remember when I was a kid, my parents would bring the map. One of them would drive while the other... Continue Reading →
Blessings for 2022
I am sitting in my chair thinking about 2022. I find it funny how a new year can bring change, yet it is a continuous day in life from one day to the next. It brings a new start, new beginning, and yet that newness should be an every day joy. Living for Jesus brings... Continue Reading →
Christmas Songs
Photo by Olya Kobruseva on Pexels.com This year is making me want to decorate early, bake early and everything early. I even received everything I ordered for everyone and wrapped it all. So with that being said, I am listening to Christmas songs everyday. There are so many beautiful, spiritual Christmas songs, that I cannot... Continue Reading →
Listen To What Is Spoken
I always find it funny how some people speak and no one is listening. I don’t mean funny haha, but funny how it goes in one ear and out the other.

The rain becomes louder, and then bam, out of know where it gets stronger and lightning hits. Then I go in. I don’t mind... Continue Reading →
Motivation
Wake up and get going! Don't just lay around and do nothing. I am not talking about exercising, though you do need motivation for that. Life is not always easy and I sometimes feel unmotivated. At times I feel depleted, and I know I must keep going. Who do I lean on? Who gives me... Continue Reading →
Needs And Wants
I have a wants and needs list, and a honey do list. The lists consist of things that are needed for the home, and my wants are just to have. I have learned to think twice about my wants. I add things, erase and make corrections on my list. I then question myself and ask,... Continue Reading →
Attending Church
This pandemic is changing the way we live, shop and see our friends and family. It has been a crazy year. Thank goodness we can Skype, Zoom and even FaceTime. But if you were attending church before the pandemic, are you attending now or watching your church service online? It's difficult trying to accomplish anything,... Continue Reading →
Are You Called?
I remember years ago I thought I was called to ministry. I had this deep feeling inside and was waiting for a nudge, push or fall. It happened during my church's annual conference. Towards the end of the conference, the bishop would ask anyone or all forward who had or felt they had the call... Continue Reading →
