Seasons
Wintertime and fresh fallen snow. Sledding and snowmen. Oh, and Christmas time! I love the way that those Christmas lights shine, lighting up the room in a luminous glow. I love the semi cluttered rooms filled with Christmas decor and the smell of pine lit candles. Although when the Christmas season ends, I’m ready for…

Love
If there’s one thing that I have learned as I’ve grown Love is the only thing we own Life is temporary and ours only for some time But love is the only thing that we take with and we leave behind We can leave stuff that doesn’t mean so much But love echoes longer it’s…

Focus on God
We took down our Christmas decorations yesterday evening. After doing so, we rearranged our living room. Sometimes it’s just nice to give things a fresh new look.

Stay biblically wise
Too many people place their faith on what other people tell them about God, without learning about God for themselves. Now when we are children or just learning about God it is okay to have extra guidance. Honestly, it’s always ok to have extra guidance. However, we cannot place our whole faith on what other…

Hope of forever
I recently lost a great uncle. He was someone who always made me laugh when I saw him. He was just funny. When I was a little girl, he lived far away on the opposite side of the country from me. But him and my aunt and myself would write letters to stay in touch.…

The night sky
My youngest son got a telescope for Christmas. He loves outer space. There is something so magnificent about the night sky. The stars and the planets. God is so detail oriented in how He created the universe. It is all so magnificent. I watched as my youngest went outside and started to try out his…
