This topic is still on my heart. God put a burden there, I believe. He’s taught me much in this area. Forgive me if you’re ready to move on. I just think surrender is so key to following Christ that it’s worth spending more time delving into it. Two more stories come to mind andContinue reading “Surrender – take II”

SURRENDER
If you’re a regular follower of my blog, I’m assuming you believe in Jesus Christ as your Savior and have asked Him to forgive you of your sins. You’ve received His free gift of salvation and thanked Him for dying in your place on the cross of Calvary. Just as God raised Him from theContinue reading “SURRENDER”
Back to the Basics
A blank page in a journal, a new job, moving to a new city, seeing a $0 balance and knowing you’re out of debt. What do these have in common? A fresh start! A new beginning! For most of us, a new year ushers in excitement and hope for the challenge of a new year. Continue reading “Back to the Basics”
The Christmas Rush
As I was unwrapping each piece of our family’s nativity set from the tissue paper and putting it out for display, God spoke to my heart. I put baby Jesus in the middle. All the other characters and creatures were around HIM. The Lord quietly said, “That’s the way it should be always…Jesus asContinue reading “The Christmas Rush”
THANKSgiving
I still can’t believe we’re only a week away from Thanksgiving. Where did the month of November go? I distinctly remember Mom saying when I was a little girl, “When you’re young, Christmas, the holidays and your birthday seem to roll around slowly and take forever to get here. But when you’re older, Christmas,Continue reading “THANKSgiving”
Israel
Before I begin this article, please know I will be true to the promise I made to the Lord before I ever began this blog. Even if tempted, I will not write about and/or discuss politics. As I sit to write about God’s chosen people and country, that task will be very difficult. TheContinue reading “Israel”
Lessons from the beach – take II
One of our favorite aspects of being at the beach is staying on the seventh floor of our condominium complex. It’s the top floor; we’ve learned to request it every year. Why? Oh, we both love to bask in the sun as we’re in lounge chairs on the deck near the pool and readContinue reading “Lessons from the beach – take II”
Lessons from the Beach
We recently returned from the beach. It was a refreshing time of relaxing, soaking up the sun, spending time with my hubby, the Lord and creating some wonderful memories. Both of us love the ocean. We looked forward to getting in daily to “ride the waves” or experience the calm swells. ThisContinue reading “Lessons from the Beach”
God Winks
Over the years, I’ve had numerous “God winks”. You know, when God communicates with you in such a special way that it’s unmistakable; it was obvious that what occurred was a “sign” or message from Him. Here are just a few that stand out in my mind: When Nathan was a junior inContinue reading “God Winks”
Light in the Darkness
I’ve always loved hoop earrings…small, large, medium, silver or gold. There’s something about them that’s so classic, simple and elegant. A few years ago, I had on my favorite pair of hoop earrings. They were rope silver/black hoops. Somehow when I was taking one off, it rolled under our dresser. I tried toContinue reading “Light in the Darkness”
