Only God Could Orchestrate This! I have to share.... if you ever wonder whether God orchestrates things for us to delight us, reassure us, and provide for us, among other things, just look for them. God is always working behind the scenes for our best! And one way He shows that is through His divine… Continue reading Only God Could Orchestrate This!
I read something in the Word that totally grabbed me. You know, like when you have read verses many times and have all this head knowledge and then one day, just like that, God uses a metaphorical 2x4 to whop you and get your attention? Yeah, like that!! Ephesians 2:6 “He raised us up with… Continue reading Mind Blown
Yesterday I was enjoying my beautiful yard, and all the different kinds and colors of plants, trees, bushes, and flowers. Just looking at them gives me a sense of peace. And when the bird sounds are added, my meditative mood increases. (Except for the crows. I'm still trying to love the crows.) And while I… Continue reading Our Senses Are A Gift
Sometimes we just feel like garbage. I’m not talking about when we are ill, and our bodies feel like trash. I mean when someone degrades us, or we can’t accomplish something we have worked really hard at. Or when we realize that we have screwed up big time. Or we disappoint someone whom we love… Continue reading The Great Recycler
I pray you know that you are deeply, unconditionally, and sacrificially loved by the One Who created you, Who knows you by name, and Who has a purpose for you. Love and hugs, Passionista Mimi

I had a conversation the other day with a young woman who said something interesting. She said that for some people negativity is all they know.… Continue reading Nope!

It seems that many of us struggle with this act-of-the-heart which would release us from something we’ve done in our past and the self-guilt and shame that plagues us. Several of us discussed this unforgiveness during a Bible study I’m… Continue reading Forgive Myself?
Blowing down the corridors Of the dusty halls of past and memories Your love is cleansing, washing, Like the Swedish housekeeper Diligently ridding my heart Of the dank, dark corners and musty, ill-smelling places Opening windows, allowing clean, clear Sunshine to lighten the thoughts, Bathe my heart in sweet-smelling delight Curtains flutter as cobwebs are… Continue reading Cleansing
(Originally written in June of 2012, I decided it still had some good points, so posting it now.) I am usually a very positive person. However, being broadsided by the life-changing event of breaking my right leg, which means no walking or driving for at LEAST eight weeks, kind of had me in an "I'm… Continue reading Whatever Is Pure
