Being a Chicken

Hello everyone! I was talking to a friend yesterday about being a chicken sometimes.  I think we all have our “chicken” moments.  Fear is something we all fight against, especially in having to do things that didn’t turn out well for us in our past experience.  Yet the Lord was showing me that being a chicken [...]

Loyalty Fruit

Hello Everyone! As we celebrate Memorial Day, I think of the men and women who served and even gave their lives for this country.  That’s the epitome of loyalty.  They defended this country to protect it, future generations, and us.  Even at the expense of their own lives.  Isn’t that what love is all about?  One of the [...]

My Grandmother’s Daisy Plant

Hello Everyone, My Grandmother’ favorite plant was a daisy bush in her front yard.  All the neighbors admired it and she would cut off a shoot, root it and give it to them.  It gave her great pleasure to do this.  When we moved into our house, she wanted to give us a shoot. We never [...]

The “Love Begets”

Hello Everyone, Has anyone besides me struggled to get through the “begets” in the Bible?  It got me to thinking…….. I was thinking the other day about how much the Lord loves us and how His goodness blankets the earth.  Every good and perfect gift comes from above.  It comes down pure, clean and spotless.  However the [...]

The Should Have Syndrome

Hello everyone! Did you know that “should have” are words the devil loves?  For these words can lead to guilt.  Everyone has a “should have” in their lives.  But if you dwell on the should have’s, you’ll never move forward to the “can do’s”.   When you get stuck in the should have’s- you get frozen [...]

Heavenly Hugs

Hello Everyone, Whenever my husband Bill gave me a hug, I felt such love and comfort.  It was as close to heavenly love as anyone could get.  We all desire hugs from those we love, and there are so many different kinds of hugs.  Some are casual friendship hugs, some are family love hugs, and [...]

Ring Around the Rosie

Hello Everyone, The other day, out of the blue, I thought about the game I played as a child called, Ring Around the Rosie.  Now when these thoughts come in unexpectedly, most of the time I have come to realize that God wants to talk to me about something.  In this case, I was correct.  I [...]

Are We in Contact?

Hello Everyone, These days, everyone seems to be in contact constantly with friends through social media.  We can tell our friends what’s going on in our lives every minute of every day.  We carry cell phones – not just to be able to talk wherever or whatever we’re doing – but to text, email, and [...]

Revelation of His Love

Hello Everyone, I have been asking the Lord to reveal more of His love to me - I want so much more!   I realize that many times we look for God’s love in how we “feel” – our emotions.  Yes, we can feel His love and Presence that way.  I love it when I can feel His [...]
