Blog

I’ve recently had one of those experiences that left me feeling inadequate.  It probably shouldn’t have left me feeling that way, but I let my impressions of others, and what I thought they might think of me take center stage. My emotion wasn’t based on reality, just a perception that

My daughter is getting married.  I’ve said the phrase, I’ve thought the phrase, I LIVE with the phrase since my days are filled with lists of wedding things to do.  But typing the phrase, letting the phrase truly sink in, is a different story. When my sweet girl was a

A Lesson from My Coffee Cup

The other morning I was up early, really early for me.  I was very tired and knew I needed copious amounts of my delicious morning elixir.  I filled my pink travel coffee mug, screwed the lid on and somewhat blindly headed out the door.  I sipped and sipped from my cup

I’ve decided to blog again!

Hello!  Let me introduce myself….. Since it’s been so long since blogging, I feel as if I need to clarify who I am!  No, I haven’t changed and I haven’t been doing some secret makeover. I’ve had plenty to say, I’ve just been lazy.  Yup, there you have it, the

I believe I need to be honest.  I need to just put it out there and admit to my situation.  I have an Easter hangover.  I said it.  I confessed.  It’s true you know, I have an Easter hangover.  When the sun rose this morning, I thought I should be

A little Journey to the Cross

It’s almost Easter. Something new hangs in my closet awaiting it’s Easter Morning Moment.  Guests have been invited, the menu planned, the ham purchased.  The church choir has been in rehearsals, together in the sanctuary and individually, alone in their cars, as they sing along with their rehearsal CDs.

I Choose Jesus, I Choose LIFE

Someone shared this link with me on Facebook.  It really is powerful!  Just a reminder that we really are all created by a God who loves us and has our best in mind — Always.  I am a Princess, YOU are a Princess (or a Prince) and Almighty God loves

Jesse Tree: Elijah Ornament

My church has been participating in the Jesse Tree tradition this year. The idea of the Jesse Tree is to help people (especially children) see the faithfulness of God, and how the Christmas Story is not the beginning of God’s story for us, but the beginning of the fulfillment of His promises
