Sharing God’s Love

I have really been struggling over how to write this post that has been on my heart for quite some time now. It’s an issue that really moves me and I want to make sure that anything I say comes across in the way my heart feels it and the way God has laid it [...]

Thankful List for November 12, 2008

I have decided to work on my “thankful list” since we have just over two weeks before Thanksgiving. My family and I are so blessed and have much to be thankful for and I want to use my blog as a declaration of our thankfulness.
Today, I am thankful for friends…

Mickey and I are blessed to [...]

Thank you, Veterans!

Today is a Federal holiday here in the US. It’s Veterans Day. A day to honor and thank those who have served our country and those who have fallen in protecting our liberties. In our combined family we have many veterans serving from WWII through the War on Terror. We are honored and grateful for [...]

With God It’s Never a Coincidence…

God has really been working on me lately about reading my Bible. I’ll admit that I have slacked off on it and I have no excuse for that. He’s working on me.  It’s subtle, but I know that God is guiding me to and through His word.
Last night I read my current novel (Savannah Comes [...]

If Life Were a Movie…

I don’t know exactly WHY this thought popped into my head last night, but as I was getting ready for bed I started thinking about what it would be like if my life were a movie that I could watch. At first I thought about how cool that would be.  Who wouldn’t want ot relive [...]

My thoughts on our new President Elect…

This morning I have been thinking a lot about the outcome of our Presidential election. I expected that I would be disappointed if McCain didn’t win because he was the candidate our family had chosen to support. I will say that I am somewhat disappointed that he didn’t win, but I am a far cry [...]

Emerging Butterflies…

This morning, our family has had the blessing of watching butterflies emerge from their cocoons. What an awesome experience and opportunity to remind ourselves and our girls about God’s wonders. It’s so cool!

We ordered this Live Butterfly Garden from Amazon for Macey’s birthday. We received the kit and sent away for the caterpillars. Within a [...]

What do I have to show for it?

Today I had one of those days where I worked all day on the house, but you can’t walk in any room and tell I’ve done a thing. I was on the go most all day and yet things look pretty much the same as they did this morning. How can that be?! I did [...]

Prayers for Kenya Mission

Our church just had a mission team depart for Kwambekenya, Kenya yesterday. They will be there performing God’s outreach until April 26th. It is my honor and privilege to be a Prayer Partner here at home for those who are serving in Africa. I had hoped to go on a mission trip to Africa [...]

Peaceful Slumber

Is there anything more peaceful than a sleeping baby or child? Oh, I just love watching my girls when they sleep. I just love the peace that washes over them. It’s such a sweet thing to witness.
This morning Mariana was tired and wanted me to hold her, so I did. She fell asleep in my [...]
