Thank You!
We made it! Since October 4th we have traveled together down the road toward better health. I know the changes you have made are making a difference. If you have wandered off the path, don’t fret – just hop back on. His grace is sufficient! If you have some extra time during the holidays and […]
What Do You Crave?
What do you crave? Webster defines a craving as “an intense, urgent, or abnormal desire or longing”. Are you plagued by a craving that won’t go away? Natural cravings like food or water can be satiated by eating lunch or placing a glass under the faucet. But what about those unhealthy urges that manhandle our […]
Sleep Tight
Rest. We all want it. We all need it, but it eludes us. We think our lives should include: quiet time, exercise, time with kids or grandchildren, romance, friends, hobbies, personal grooming, yard work, household chores, work, cooking, grocery shopping, and appointments. Not only do we try to do it all, we try to do it […]
Be Transformed!
I’m a list maker. Making a list keeps me on track, helps me remember what I’m supposed to be doing and best of all, makes me feel good when I get to mark things off. But the list that eventually made me feel best is The Dirty Dozen. For me, it originated in Jordan Rubin’s […]
You’ve Got to Move It, Move It!
Thank you for your praise and prayers for Jessa. She and her family are adjusting to her arrival, but are anxiously trying to find some simultaneous sleep. So far, I don’t think it’s working. That is why it is good for young people to have babies. Since Jessa’s arrival I’ve had the chance to spend […]
My Wish Revisited
Here’s that extra post like I promised. God has truly blessed us with a beautiful little granddaughter, Jessa Leigh. She and her two brothers make quite a cute trio. Yes, I am boasting, but that’s my job and I love it! I ran a post titled “My Wish” when we learned a new grandbaby was on the […]
Confessions of a Recovering Legalist
“But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.” – Galatians 5:22-23 Satan has confused the world with his slick tricks just like he did with Eve in the garden. Incapable of stealing and destroying the life-giving fruit of the Spirit, Satan […]
Who Do You Love?
Your comments on this blog go through my email causing my phone to ding. All your little dings last week made my heart sing. Many thanks go out to Tim, Kristina, Kim, Karla, Susan, Annie, Ginger, Cindy, Lei Ann, Jarrod and Charlotte for having the courage to say, “I’m in!” I know there are others of you […]
A Battle We Can Win
You couldn’t have asked for a better day. Raleigh’s afternoon temperature rose as the sun peeked through the rainy morning’s vanishing clouds. My family enjoyed the time spent with Ron’s sister and her family at their neighborhood pool, especially since we had it all to ourselves. We raced each other like big kids, slid down […]
A New Replay Button Please
My mind keeps hitting the replay button on two separate conversations I recently had with two not-so-different women. In our last Bible study at the city jail, one lady making a return visit, explained how she had given her life to the Lord and thought all her troubles would vanish. When they didn’t, she blamed […]
