         A prayer for those who need a lesson on how we look as a nation from heaven.          Before white people and Black people and Yellow people and Brown people came to America there were Native people here.        Can we close our eyes and imagine […]

     In the recent news there was a woman who was quite far along in her pregnancy (20 weeks) seeking an abortion. She wished to abort her baby but lives in Texas where abortions are allowed only if the mother is at risk because of the pregnancy.  The baby has Trisomy 18.  This is […]

       Hello!  I’ve been away and I apologize.  I do not get much feedback on this site, if any, so it’s easy to just let it go. I did renew the blog for another year so let’s see what happens!      I was watching television last night and an ad came on […]

     I now return to the story of Ruth.  I have thought about her and the strength she had in order to endure hardship and change.  This year has been a test of strength for all of us.  Some have had to endure more than others, but, I think we can agree, we all […]

          Welcome summer!  I’m ready for a break so this will be my last blog… maybe permanently.  I’ve been writing, mostly for myself, and that’s a good thing.  Its been therapeutic and helped me draw close to the Lord.  My last study was so pertinent to our current atmosphere around the […]

     I will admit that I’m not always sure I’m sharing my “gift”, set aside by God, for His purpose.  I think about things I can do or could be doing and sometimes feel like a failure, or don’t do anything. Other times I think about God’s will and know I’m pushing my agenda, […]

       I’m currently in a study about “Breaking Free from Fear” through Precept Ministries.  This study has hit home in several ways.  I think as humans we can relate to fear as a fully functional attribute to the human psyche.  In this world fear is a common, daily occurrence or experience.  If we […]

     In Job, chapter 12, verses 7-10, Job chides his accusers and informs them… “But now ask the beasts, and let them teach you…. It’s a wonderful rhythm of verses that lead us to Who the great Creator is.  It is by His great design that animals and plants emerged from his hand.  It […]

     The old adage “It takes a village” is actually a biblical truth.  God called people to live as one united community.  Followers of Jesus were instructed to encourage one another, give to a communal pot so all had what they needed.  Brothers and sisters were asked to give so other communities had basic […]
