Monkey bars
Remember as kids successfully crossing the monkey bars for the first time? Pure success! For so many times we may have struggled making it across. Sore hands and arms, from every metal bar we tried to cross. Sometimes even falling on the earth below us. Yet, with pure determination we would get up and try…

Another year for His glory
Birthdays. Some people dread them like the plague, while others bask in them. Some don’t want to acknowledge them, while others want to be celebrated their whole entire birthday month. For me, I’m just always grateful for another year at life. Another day to be with family and loved ones. Another day to live my…

He lovingly looks out for us
God is good. Thanksgiving morning my husband stepped outside to take our dog out. It was then he had seen that our large pine tree had been taken down by the wind. I was surprised and concerned. Once we went to fully investigate, we were further relieved. Though we will have a project ahead of…

Rest in His care and His love
It was a pretty cold morning and the frost had kissed the ground. We passed by a small lake and floating atop the water were some very pretty ducks. Behind them from the frigid water temps, you could see a trail in the water from where they had just come from. The cold-water leaving imprints…

Go where He calls
God is awesome. I watched a video of a man today stand in front of his congregation and talk about how God called him to become a pastor. This man, had cerebral palsy. He admitted when he first got the calling, he doubted it. He initially didn’t know how God could use him with his…

Our home with Him
I so enjoy watching before and after house renovation projects. Mainly the ones where the buyer purchases a house that no one would want. The ones falling apart and that requires the most work. I love how these buyers take a place that was abandoned and left for ruin and make the house a home.…

Happy endings
I love happy endings. The ones where something positive is the result. Being reunited with loved ones, the sick being healed, someone turning the hard into a triumphant story. You know, things like that. Even if your life is pretty good, life isn’t always positive. It is not always easy. Sometimes we go through things;…
