We are friends. Jesus and Me. He sits shotgun when I drive, He is my conscious when I’m stuck with a decision. When I’m in anguish, He comforts me. When I am bored, I get into the Word for inspiration and encouragement. Songs have been written about this friendship: “What a friend we have inContinue reading “You and Me”

Pieces of Loss
There are many variations of loss. Of life, love, a health diagnosis, home, job, and whatever it is, is the most important thing to you at the time. No one could possibly understand, even if they can relate – it’s not the same. Sometimes we don’t want empathy as much as we want someone toContinue reading “Pieces of Loss”
Where Do You Find God?
I find God on a quiet day, in nature, the sound of wind always reminds me of Jesus. As if He is whispering to me. Also in my daily devotions, or wanderings in the bible. Today “faith” was a dominant word in my day; it came reading Hebrews; all of the people who chose (notContinue reading “Where Do You Find God?”
Courage
Courage roars. Does it? Sometimes it’s the still, small voice inside of us that wants to roar like a lion, but instead meows! 2 Chronicles 32:7 Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or discouraged because of the king of Assyria and the vast army with him, for there is a greater power withContinue reading “Courage”
This is the day!
What do you rejoice most about when it comes to your love of Mother Earth? In Springtime, I’m thankful for the beautiful buds and blooms, the sunshine, birds chirping and blue skies. Earth Day was celebrated around the world on April 22nd. I missed it because I was traveling, so today am spreading my gratitudeContinue reading “This is the day!”
Holy Month
April is just around the corner and our holy month begins; Palm Sunday, Passover, Good Friday and Easter. The death, burial and resurrection — the miracle that saved our life. Do you believe? That is all that is asked of us, to believe that Jesus Christ died for our sins. People don’t like to seeContinue reading “Holy Month”
What we gain by giving up
During this Lenten season, some are giving up sugar or Facebook or something else that bogs down their time or life. Some; instead of giving up, are giving. They are volunteering or adding more bible study to their routine. Whatever path you choose, make it prayerful, make it important. You are in essence, to denyContinue reading “What we gain by giving up”
Pieces of Humility
Oh the irony!!!! While perusing our church’s small library, I was asked if I was looking for a specific subject; I held my breath for a second; hmmm……how best to answer this? Well, yes, I’m looking for a book on “Humility.” Touchy subject, isn’t it? For some, they may feel “right” or “deserving” of somethingContinue reading “Pieces of Humility”
Healing Pieces
At one time or another, we have begun the healing process. Perhaps emotionally from a broken heart, or physically from a surgical procedure. There are literally so many types of pain and hurt, there is no one cure. I’ve been healing from a four-inch incision in my lower back. Thanks to meds, I rarely haveContinue reading “Healing Pieces”
Pieces of Forgiveness
I have struggled personally with the act of forgiveness. Some resentment harbored over 30 years of my life. Imagine. Withholding forgiveness to another human being when Jesus forgives ME every day, sometimes many times a day. I am not without sin. How did it ever become my place to judge the actions of another? ItContinue reading “Pieces of Forgiveness”
