Psalm 90:17 And may the Lord our God show us His approval and make our efforts successful. Yes, make our efforts successful! When we start school, I guess it is safe to assume, our parents are praying that it will be the start of something successful. I know my parents did. They had dreams […]
I Don’t Understand
It’s okay. He doesn’t expect me to. He just wants me to believe Him and have faith. Isaiah 55:8-11, “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts […]
Get Ready for the Sale
127 Yard Sale. Enough said. End of story. I could stop right there but, what kind of blog would that be? I decided to join in the fun this year. I thought, surely I have enough stuff to at least share a spot with a friend. Then I started going through my stuff. Oh my […]

I went into the office to make some copies. The copy machine said that the toner waste receptacle was full. We had to empty it. I had never done it before, but I probably make the most copies here at the church, so I volunteered. After some direction and guidance, I took the silly thing […]
He is in the Waiting
I count myself among the people in my life, friends and family, that are asking God to move in their lives and they are waiting. Everything from people needing surgery and waiting on an opening, marriages that seem to be falling apart, and just being discontent in the way that the world and our country […]
Quick and Slow
How many of us have a list of things we need to get done? Do you look at your list and time out what and when and who? What can wait, what can’t? When do these things need to be done? Who are the people, and in what order are the said things being done? […]
