Shadows can be scary. When you think of what people fear the most–death, it is as though there is this looming shadow that follows us around until one day it catches up to […]
Chasing a Shadow
Vickie Munton
I am passionate about my faith and my family and I blog about anything that inspires me--from scripture to do-it-yourself ideas. I love being with my family, seeing new places, photography, diy and warm weather! In everything I do and wherever I go, I long for others to see Jesus in me.
Changing How You Think
The seasons are changing, and after weeks of unseasonably warm weather, the daffodils have bloomed and the landscape is changing. All to be covered in a fresh blanket of snow. Because I […]
Looking for a Sign?
I have often hinted that it would be really convenient if God would just give me “a sign”. You know, like write in the clouds or have a pigeon drop a note […]
Friends of a Different Sort
I have two beautiful friends that just won’t go away. No matter how hard I try. They just won’t spread their wings and fly. They come back to me over and over […]
Wordless Wednesday: Black and White
My grandbabies are always an inspiration, and this picture started the black and white obsession. Enjoy!
Meet Matthew
Yes, he’s a real person. He was not the most popular guy and he surely must have felt like an outcast. Matthew, the guy who has to collect taxes for the government. I […]

“Now everyone who competes exercises self-control in everything. However, they do it to receive a crown that will fade away, but we a crown that will never fade away.” I Corinthians 9:25 […]
Cultivating Joy
It’s an easy pattern to fall into. Letting circumstances dictate our joy. And the soil of circumstance can be pretty darn rocky. So we plant the seeds. We plan our days, our […]
I Will Love You for You
Unconditional, unending, sacrificial love. Only a Holy God can love like that. And He does. But you–you are a gift from this loving God,
Out of the Mouths of Babes
“Jesus loves the little children, all the children of the world!” Our little two year old granddaughter who has been on more continents in her short life than many adults, was singing […]
Surviving Sports
Okay, Okay. I know that it is Super Bowl Sunday, and you are not going to read this because you think that I am a woman that doesn’t like sports and that […]
Vetting Our Words
“Silence is golden” they say. Maybe it is because in those quiet moments, when the world is loud and you are quiet, the wealth you are accumulating will be needed to pay the […]
The Beauty of Ice
I am not a cold weather fan. I crave the sunshine and avoid the cold. But not today. The ice storm has lured me outdoors to capture the beauty. Enjoy!
You Can’t Do Anything
I don’t blame my parents, or even genetics for giving me a low self-esteem. We live in a pass-the-buck society, where it seems we all too often blame any negative character traits or misfortune […]
