Dormant Soul

One morning I complained to God that I have to wait a whole half hour after taking my medication before I can have my cup of coffee. In my mind, I heard the word fetish. I was taken aback. "What, me have a fetish?" I had to look up the word. Meaning #2 in the dictionary said, "an inanimate object worshiped for its supposed magical powers or because it is considered to be inhabited by a spirit." I heard Him whisper gently to my heart, "You cannot serve two masters. If I took this away, you would begrudge me. Your heart isn't really even open to stop right now." Read more on my blog.

I dragged myself to my... Continue Reading →

A Turn in the Road

Weekly, I drive past a place in the road where my son drove his first car off a 50 foot cliff.  Thankfully that afternoon three years ago he survived that crash but his car did not. You see, there was a curve in the road. He continued driving straight and didn't turn with the road.... Continue Reading →

When God Calls You to Stop.

Earlier this year God called me to stop working on our house.  Our goal is to move.  To do that we need to get this house ready to sell.  Sometimes it is so hard when He calls us to stop doing a priority or a goal. I remember another difficult time when I needed to... Continue Reading →

Garden Rescue

A few days after I posted Our Garden Failed, a friend presented me with a bag of his home grown tomatoes. I was thrilled! Then he told me to go get some tomato plants. This was good advice from my friend. So I got tomatoes, peppers and a zucchini plant. I was going to plant it all... Continue Reading →
