Last week I started writing this little piece. A few hours later I was sent to the emergency department…long story short, thank God for friends and first responders. I can carry on singing about sunshine. …. What’s your background music? Every good movie/tv show has a great soundtrack. Are you raging with Skillett, feeling nostalgic … Continue reading Singing

But They That Wait
“But they that wait upon the Lord…” Isaiah 40:31 (KJV) This has always been a special verse to me, mostly because my mom loved it. She waited, always, on the Lord to move before she did anything. But I read the verse a few days ago and I read it differently. “They that wait upon … Continue reading But They That Wait
Marriage
Back in my day, I felt like our goal was to find someone to build a life together. You know? It wasn’t about having everything together and then merging lives; I wanted someone who would walk beside me and together we would make our lives one. I didn’t want to move into “his” house. I … Continue reading Marriage
Friends
A good friend encourages you to be better. A great friend pushes you over the edge. My wonderful friend dared me to start writing a blog. I’m still writing and still enjoying what I learn. I don’t plan out what I’m going to say; I can’t really do things like that. Everything I post is … Continue reading Friends
If…then
It’s what makes life fly by so fast: the hurry up and wait: the ‘if-then’… If I can make it through Saturday, then… … When I found out I was expecting my fourth child, putting it mildly, I had many thoughts…timing was crazy, in the middle of losing both my parents and just everything seeming … Continue reading If…then

And I’ve found a new point of view. It helps that I’ve been reading my Bible day and night, through and through. It says … Continue reading Demons
Life Musings
Maybe it’s just me… I get busy doing things around the house. You know, picking up things laid down, just running around trying to tidy up a little, not full on clean. That’s a whole other story. I have this conversation going on in my head…you know where you are asking why can’t s/he just … Continue reading Life Musings
Law
Psalm 1 “Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly,...” Oh Lord, do I fail… “nor standeth in the way of sinners, Nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.” So much, Lord, do I fail you… I feel like I stay in the counsel of the ungodly and I … Continue reading Law
Wages
I underline many verses in my Bible, but occasionally a chapter will jump out at me. It is these times when I circle the chapter number instead of marking all the verses. Job 14 is one such chapter. The first and second verses are full of meaning that strikes me in ways I cannot begin … Continue reading Wages

Cherish every bit of life. Find happiness in your walk with God. Find joy in your family. … Continue reading Life Happens
