It seems that many of us go through life flinching, with our arms flung out across our eyes, wary of what might be coming our way. We guard our hearts against deep, emotional interactions in order to stay safe. Because for us to embrace living with our eyes wide open and with our hearts made… Continue reading Live Life With Eyes and Heart Wide Open!
Do you know what our first priority is? To love God. Not try harder or work harder or strive to get it right to be enough for Him. Just simply love Him. It’s all He ever wants from us. Really. Just love Him. Like a little child loves a parent. They don’t work hard at… Continue reading Priority #1
I wanted to tell you that I appreciate you. Is it weird that I think about my readers during the day? Perhaps that's what bloggers do. I wouldn't know, I'm still relatively new at this and haven't talked to other bloggers. I have been wondering....how are you? No, I mean really. Not what you think… Continue reading Grandmama’s Quilt

Happy Sunday morning. I just wanted to share something with you.

But honestly, how does it help us to bash people, to write ugly comments about our leaders, to become hateful about certain people? Y’all, our strongest weapon is… Continue reading Quit Yer Yappin’ And Pray!
Do you ever feel as if God doesn't know you, doesn't even see you? That you are just floundering around down here, trying to make this crazy life work? Well, dear friend, I'm here to tell you that God's word tells us again and again that God does know us and that He wants to… Continue reading Does God Know Me?
Your our first glance at this picture probably made your brain go, “Waaaat?” Well, yes, it is quite the strange photo. But it does speak a thousand words…if you are like me and see stories in everything. Here’s what I saw: like these crazy Allium bulbs--that were in bags in a dark place--we can grow… Continue reading Grow In The Dark!
There's a sense of urgency in my spirit this morning. We need to pray for our nation! We have become acutely aware of how helpless we really are. We need God! Pray that God will pour out His mercy, His grace, His love, and cover our nation with it. The world too. But today, it's… Continue reading A Call to Prayer
On March 20, 2020, as I was spending time with God, praying against the COVID-19 virus that was overtaking the world and now our country, I felt led to start praying for the unborn babies and the mamas who carried them. I put on my Facebook page that I was doing this, and if they… Continue reading Praying For The Babies
