Learning from Our Past
Scripture Challenge: JUDGES — “Who Am I to Judge?”
This Old Testament book of Judges is one depressing book. The Israelites follow God, and they are blessed. They turn from God, and everything falls apart. Why do they keep doing that?! […]
Playing Defense When We Should Be On the Offense
This is the topic no one seems to want to talk about–Girls or Guys. Moms or Dads. Parents or teenagers. Girls get defensive and guys run. I know I’m tackling this at […]
Scripture Challenge: JOSHUA — “Have No Fear!”
If you read my last post, I hope that you caught this great verse out of Joshua: If you remember the story of Joshua, he is the successor of Moses and is […]

Scripture Challenge: Deuteronomy–“What Does God Want From Me?”

Wilderness Response

This has been an incredible week, and I’m still claiming Exodus 15:2, how about you? I have absolutely loved that verse, and thankful that it’s now hiding in my heart… Now for […]
Talk about “Coincidence”: Seriously?
I’m struggling. Like many of you, I grieve for the families in Oklahoma and all those connected to them. Life is a woven tapestry of joy and pain and this week has […]

Wow…Thank you, Joyce @ especiallymade@wordpress.com, a special Mom raising a special child. She nominated me for my first blogging award! For those of you that aren’t familiar with the blogging world, these are just […]
My Kind of Clean
“Cleanliness is next to godliness” NOT! It’s not even in the Bible, so where did that come from? Here’s what I found! http://donnaperuginichildrensauthor.com/2011/03/03/where-did-the-saying-cleanliness-is-next-to-godliness-come-from/ When I saw this phrase posted on Pinterest, I […]
Scripture Challenge: A Verse from Every Book in the Bible: GENESIS 1:1
I’ve never done well with memorization, but I can’t use my weakness as an excuse for not trying. The truth is, I’ve learned that if it’s important, I’ll remember it. I make myself. […]
Spring flowers
April showers bring May flowers… and apparently SNOW for many in the Midwest! SO–I thought I post an album of my recently planted flowers just to cheer you up and brighten your […]
