This week I have told you a story about my daddy and how much he means to me. I have shared a small story of Joe, and some of our interactions with our children. But Fathers Day is not limited to our Earthly fathers. It is also a day to be thankful for our Heavenly…
I am sure most of you have heard the song by Tim McGraw, where he sings live like you were dying. With the death of my uncle this week, I have been thinking along this line. Mostly I have been thinking about how we have no guarantee of tomorrow. But, I like to keep my…
If you have never heard the song ,”How Great Is Our God” by Christ Tomlin, you have missed out. Don’t worry though, I will attach the song at the end of this post. I have no idea why this song popped in my head one night while I was asleep. I often wake up with…
Faith is a hard concept to grasp. It asks you to take a leap, often without you knowing why or what the outcome will be. It asks you to believe, without seeing. It asks for complete trust and confidence, without showing you proof. I am just like most of you, I want to see a…
Kindness, a simple act that can mean so much. In church last Sunday our Preacher talked about kindness, and then in my woman’s study group, we once again talked on the same subject. That was twice in one 2 hour period of time. Kindness is not something that costs a lot of money, and it…
Today is my last day in the 40 Day Prayer Challenge. It actually took me 42 days. I like starting my day with a devotional, but when I had company for a couple days, that didn’t happen. I have enjoyed my Draw The Circle book, and have since then ordered another couple books that will…
Women helping women. I have been at a woman’s club convention this past few days, and the central theme that surrounds me, is “Women helping Women.” It is so wonderful to be surrounded by 200 women who are all rooting for you, who are all willing to lend a helping hand, and who are all…
In church last Sunday, our preacher was talking about children. How enthusiastic they are about almost everything. The illustration he gave was singing in Sunday School. He said he could remember everyone singing, “This little light of mine” and how excited everyone would get when the devil tried to whoosh out their light. We all…
Did any of you watch the movie, “Bruce Almighty?” It was a movie starring Jim Carrey, and Morgan Freeman. It is a movie where the character, Bruce, complains to the Lord over and over. The Lord decides to let “Bruce” do the job to teach him a lesson. I remember a scene where Bruce is…
I never watch the evening news. It is always so depressing to me, and they hardly ever have anything good to say. I don’t need to know when someone is brutally killed in Michigan if I live in Virginia. I don’t even want to know that there are child molesters out there, much less a…
