October 14, 2020 Today we finally closed on our new house! I’ve waited until this day to write about the last three months progress because I wanted the deal to be sealed with no chance of unforeseen problems. It was a long, sometimes very intense time of seasonal change in my husband’s and my life.Continue reading “A Move Of Faith”

BLUE GARLAND
Special occasions call for special attention. In the 1960’s, grocery stores commonly had promotions to get you to buy groceries at their establishment. They gave away “Green Stamps” for each dollar you spent. These were usually pasted onto stamp books, which, after saving up enough, could be redeemed at stores with catalogs from which you couldContinue reading “BLUE GARLAND”
CHOICES
We enjoy a lot of freedom in this world. We can choose how we live by making choices that set the ball rolling to achieve our goals…or not. That “or not” is also a choice. We can choose our emotions and how we will react to the things that happen in life; the words saidContinue reading “CHOICES”
Choices
And one of them, a lawyer, asked him a question to test him. “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and firstContinue reading “Choices”
MORNING PRAYER
Lately I’ve been having trouble sleeping. For the last two weeks I’ve been waking up around 3:30 AM and having to get out of bed to go to the restroom. I try not to because I know I’ll not go back to sleep, especially since the alarm is set for 4:05 anyway. So I’d lieContinue reading “MORNING PRAYER”
Wisdom in Stewardship
Stewardship: the job of supervising or taking care of something, such as an organization or property. I looked this word up because I want to be a good steward of the resources and gifts that God entrusts and blesses to me. The more He gives, the more responsibility we have to use and take careContinue reading “Wisdom in Stewardship”
Pepperoni Pizza
I love keeping track of the ways God takes care of me. It’s a joy to know He hears my pleas and then seeing how He creatively answers. Today was one of those days. I’m a kitchen manager in an elementary school. Our walk-in freezer has a ceiling light that the ballast needed toContinue reading “Pepperoni Pizza”
BIKING? ME?
My husband is an avid biker. He has all the gear, a nice bike, and can ride for tens of miles at a time…fast. For years he has tried to get me to ride a bike but I did not want to do it out in public! I am a couch potato. “What if IContinue reading “BIKING? ME?”
God’s Time
After decades of being told children need to be kept busy to keep them out of trouble and enable them to live a happy, healthy life, it seems as if we now have generations of people who have never learned to relish the quiet stillness that God requires for relationship with Him. Turn off theContinue reading “God’s Time”
Soup
I know this doesn’t look good but it is delicious. It’s a super healthy bean and grain blend spiced with Curry and Garam Masala which I made into a soup. Overnight it has turned into this thick concoction. I plan to use these leftovers in pita bread for a vegan type meal. Some of theContinue reading “Soup”
