Valentine’s Day – The Importance of a Father’s Love
But, even though, we learn about our Prince through Disney classics – it is our fathers who embody them for us. They are the first men in our lives who love us – they set the bar for how we should choose our boyfriends and our PrinceCharmings. Dads are so very important to our well-being. In many ways, they are more valuable in this area than our mothers. Continue reading
Unemployed Or Is It a God Appointed Sabbatical?
So if God have given me two decades of work – and now – is giving me a decade of sabbatical rest – can I trust him in that? I know it’s God will for me to be without study employment at the moment, but I never saw it as truly a gift for him of rest. For me to get my soil rich again – to give it a breather so it can gain nutrients that have been depleted over the years. He’s ordained this. He wants me to rest. Rest in him. Trust him.

It’s OK to Say No
I am on a quest to land a job and although I have more free time than usual, is it the best use of my time to volunteer as I see fit? That answer is No. I’m learning that if I don’t take care of my issues – then no one will. Continue reading

To The Rescue
God is there to rescue us all. He gives us his full attention and is the first to extend his hand for he knows we need his help before we do. But, often, he’s not called upon or in my case I doubt that He can do anything. But every time I call out, He’s right there letting me know that I’m not alone in this world. Continue reading
Deep Surgery
I have been in pain all week. I’m physically fine – this is an emotional pain that I’m writing about tonight. I certainly feel it, but I couldn’t tell you what it is about until now. I am in surgery. Continue reading
God’s There To Give A Hand
I started a new bible study today and our Pastor asked for us to find illustrations of God in our life. So I had one and fired up my new camera. Had a bit of fun with this. Enjoy.
TRUST!
For it was last night around the 3:50 a.m. hour that he woke me up to hear the following words – TRUST ME! And I heard it loud and clear. I guess he had enough of my unbelief even in my REM sleep. He wanted to silence whatever thoughts I was having and give my burdens over to him. Continue reading
Blueprints
Man, God laid everything out for Noah from size, weight, materials and content. He gave him the exact blueprints on how to build it. He even gave him the vision for it. All Noah had to do was believe it and follow it. Trust him. Be obedient. And I know that’s what God want each of us to do too. Trust his blueprints in our life. Continue reading
