“It is well with my soul…” (Horatio Spafford “When Peace Like a River”) Do we have the humility to claim that statement? Pride often prevents us from accepting blessings. Does that sound odd to you? Wouldn’t you think that pride deserves accolades? Pride is boastful, after all, right? Pride puffs up, right? So wouldn’t blessings … Continue reading My Soul

“There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;” Ephesians 4:4 (KJV) “Your calling”… we each have our gift that contributes to the one body of the Bride of Christ. Some are given the gift of prophecy, others the gift of service…some people can speak in … Continue reading One
Thoughts on Sin
“Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, And hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.” Psalm 7:14 KJV Why do we fight with sin? Why do we try to bury it? Or cover up our transgressions? Do we not realize that by doing this we are actually planting seeds and giving sin a place to grow? If … Continue reading Thoughts on Sin
Prayer and Praise
“If the foundations be destroyed, What can the righteous do?” Psalm 11:3 KJV I was thinking about traditions the other day, about what they are. How we do things in certain ways at set times to symbolize something that has meaning to us. I was lamenting the seeming end of a family tradition. This verse … Continue reading Prayer and Praise
Struggling
This isn’t my usual thing, but needed to take a second and get this out. Gosh, I feel like I am rotting away. I know I am full of sin; I fear my heart isn’t always where it should be. But my flesh is literally rotting before my eyes. I’m not alone in this struggle … Continue reading Struggling

I was always excited and anxious to post; thinking the more I put out there, the better I would become. Later, I realized I needed to pace myself. I … Continue reading Recap
It’s Time
My Mom has ridden everywhere with me for the past 16 years…well, her picture has. She has been a constant through vehicle changes, life changes; she’s seen it all…well, her picture has. Last week, she disappeared. I don’t know what happened. I know she’s been finicky lately…she hasn’t been staying in her seat; she’s been … Continue reading It’s Time
Take Time
This morning, I was doing some thinking. I was thinking about something my mom would say to me when I was sick. She would ask me if I would rather go to work and do what I could and get paid for being there, or sit at home, feeling bad, worrying about work and not … Continue reading Take Time
Surety
When we lay aside the things we think and focus on the things that the Lord says, we can find comfort. Daily we face trials and temptations and we often think we are alone in all this. But we are not. Even if you don’t know my struggle and I don’t know your story, the … Continue reading Surety
A Thought About Comfort Zones
I was just thinking about comfort zones…you know how we really don’t like leaving our space or going outside of our level of expertise. We usually find a groove and just kind of stay there until we are forced to move. The Lord says He never sends us anywhere He would not go; furthermore He … Continue reading A Thought About Comfort Zones
