Finding Hope in This Crazy World
I admit it. I am overweight. The ER called me obese. That hurt. I immediately started hating my body. Every morning I would wake up and speak ‘death’ over my body. I won’t repeat my negative thoughts here, I don’t want to give them any more power My thoughts were bad. I felt defeated. I... Continue Reading →
Happy Easter! Praise the Lord, the tomb is empty! We have a risen Savior! What on Earth does this mean? It means that this life is not the end. Jesus died on the cross and carried our sins to the grave. They are gone, forgiven! Praise the Lord! Jesus did what we could not do.... Continue Reading →
My last post, Coping With Loneliness: A Personal Journey, dealt with my feelings about my current medical condition. I was frustrated and yes, lonely. But God knew that already. He heard my heart as I typed every word. Do you know what God did? He met me right where I was, in the middle of... Continue Reading →
I had a hard week with a meltdown. Let’s face it, I’m a 61 year old Grandma who has been out of work and on Disability due to back problems for the last 7 years. It hasn’t been fun or easy. These days I’m lucky to get 3 hours of sleep at a time. I... Continue Reading →
Who says getting older is easy? It's not easy. The longer I roam around in this tent of a body the more it shows signs of wear and tear. Can I get a trade-in Lord? I am ready for that new body Lord. This one is not what it used to be. It happened the... Continue Reading →

Yes, 2020 sucked. But it’s over. We made it. God saw us through and we are still here! Hallelujah! I don’t know about you, but there were a few times I didn’t know if I would make it to 2021. Yes, I have been knocked down this past year with deaths, COVID in my family, heart... Continue Reading →
Remember Job? I can relate to this guy lately. I wrote about my heart attack here on 4/21/20. That was 6 days in the hospital. 4 weeks later I had another heart episode on 5/29/20 and had to go back to the Hospital. That was another 4 days. That's 10 days out of 30 that... Continue Reading →
It was another early morning for me. 3:30 am. I'm really not a morning person. I would much rather stay up later watching Netflix or something and sleep late. But lately, this is not how my life has been going. I find myself waking up early. I go upstairs, turn on our electric fireplace, get... Continue Reading →
There will be times of pruning in our lives. Times after Harvest, where God will till the fields of our lives. He is a Good Father, and wants to help us produce more fruit, more wine. "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. For by it the elders obtained a good testimony.... Continue Reading →
