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

Recap
When I first started writing this blog, I posted multiple times each week. Sometimes more than once a day. There was always something on my mind. 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

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
Just Thoughts
Rarely do we ever have it easy… especially on multiple fronts… usually, life hits us from several sides at once. All the negativity-all we do is complain to each other and about each other. I mean sometimes, we need to vent, you know, let out a little steam. Sometimes we need to share a little … Continue reading Just Thoughts
Passive
I’m often described as a passive person. I don’t tend to react to things like many people do. I seem to let things just roll off of me and I keep on going. But people who really know me, know that everything has an effect on me. They start to notice the little changes…how I … Continue reading Passive
Possible
What is impossible? Someone sent me a message the other day about how where the impossible begins, that’s where God starts working… I get it. I understand what the person was saying. Whatever we face, God is in control and He makes the impossible possible. The challenges we face mean nothing when God is with … Continue reading Possible
Targets and Mercy
I might be the only person who feels like this, but I feel like I have a target on my back. I feel like people stare daggers through me. But why should they? Really, so much of the time I feel invisible: like I really don’t matter anyway; so why would someone waste their time … Continue reading Targets and Mercy
