Put God, Instead of the Devil, in the Details

I got new glasses a week or so ago – they seemed like a great idea at the time…my ten year old daughter and the 23 year old young lady there to assist us thought they were great. (*Note to self: Maybe check with someone a little closer to my age next time?*) I thoughtContinue reading “Put God, Instead of the Devil, in the Details”

Our Thoughts Should Not Be Our Own

Our thoughts can be a dangerous thing…it’s easy to ignore this part of our spiritual development. And yet, our thoughts can control our moods and our actions. They can affect our relationships with others, and with God. These thoughts can be about ourselves, our situations, other people, the world in general, or specific events…really, nothingContinue reading “Our Thoughts Should Not Be Our Own”

Are you in or out?

We’ve all had to adapt to very different lives over the course of the past year. One of the areas that has changed the most in my household is Church. We rarely miss a Sunday, and are at church most Wednesday evenings. Under normal circumstances. Circumstances are anything but normal. We started off back inContinue reading “Are you in or out?”

Share Some Love This Weekend!

I much prefer to call February 14th ‘Chocolate Day.’ It can be filled so many mixed feelings for so many, a real roller coaster of emotions. So, we try to just have fun with it…we had a great laugh this morning when my husband had the table set with gifts, for my daughter and myself,Continue reading “Share Some Love This Weekend!”

Sometimes we just have to sit down and be still for a minute in order to figure out what it is we are supposed to do today.

If you’ve ever had the pleasure of working in a factory setting, you know what a ‘hot list’ is…it’s those things that HAVE to get done. Those orders, or products or processes that take #1 priority, regardless of what else is going on. If you’ve never worked in a factory, I encourage you to considerContinue reading “Stop Procrastinating and Have a Little Faith in Yourself.”

Faith for a Nation, Smiles for the People

This week, most of watched the inauguration ceremony as it happened, live streaming on our favorite outlet.

The World Around You Does Not Define You. Find the Good.

I don’t make it a habit to open up the news first thing in the morning, but these are, for lack of a less overused word, ‘unprecedented times.’ We’re are looking dead in the face of what could have been predicted, and prevented, for our nation. One of the main topics of conversation in theContinue reading “The World Around You Does Not Define You. Find the Good.”

Wolf Quotes for the Women, the Leaders of the Pack

Such a a powerful animal, inside and out. One thing we can all agree on is that the wolf commands our respect.

The Word of the Year 2021

Are you ready for it? This year? The one that we don’t really know quite what to do with or expect from? Nothing really magical happens at midnight on New Years, but we can use it as a reset marker – a time to adjust our focus, our sails, our attitudes. I spent more timeContinue reading “The Word of the Year 2021”
