Grace Grace
Just wanted to take a minute to share a thought from the other day. While listening to a popular radio station the DJ was speaking of grace. I’ll spare you the majority of what was said and just get to my point. She was saying that we often give grace to others when...
Movies You Wanna See – You Just Don’t Know It Yet
Valentines Day, Hallmark Holiday, Singles Awareness Day often referred to as S.A.D., Chocolate Holiday, and strange as it may be, Ferris Wheel Day. No, I didn't make the last one up! This day honors the birth of the inventor of the Ferris Wheel, George Washington...
Hope
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1 This morning I was on my Facebook and looked at my existing cover photo of a Christmas ornament that simply said hope. Today that is what I cling to. I have a relative that...
What If
Last evening I sat at my kitchen table and celebrated my upcoming birthday. This morning I woke to an email that a co-worker had passed away. As I sat around a table full of laughter, she sat in a hospital room taking her last breath. At work her projects will go on,...
Christmas Everyday
I know several people that come from medium or large sized families and it seems that there is one thing we all have in common - the disagreements. I don't know that it is possible to get that many people together and have everyone agree. The loudness of the...

What Do You Know? You’re Single!
I was raised in church and for many years I have heard Heaven and Hell preached. Although I'm sure it probably has happened, I've never personally known of someone telling the pastor they can't speak of Heaven or Hell because they haven't experienced it. The Bible...
Progressive Destruction
Who Did I Marry: Him or His Family?
Wait! Who Leaves? Who Cleaves?
Love Your Enemy
I had a small meltdown earlier this evening. Maybe meltdown isn’t the best way to describe it. There were no tears, no screaming, and no throwing things. There was attitude though; lots and lots and lots and lots of attitude. I sat for a good 10 minutes and stewed....
Organize My Bills
I love my job and I love that it pays the bills. There was a time when I would dread bill time though. I loathed it, not because money was leaving my account, but because I couldn't get organized. No matter what I did I always managed to miss something. Generally...
