For anyone that has lived more than a few years….you get it. Time simply does not stand still – for anyone. And as time marches on, life changes, in so many ways. Valley’s and mountaintops, mud puddles and sinking pits, glorious campfires and devastating firestorms. All of these intermixed in what we call the journey of life. Now that it…
The story of life you say? Yes. I believe that one can discover the meaning of ‘life‘ inside the symbolism and history of this minor feast day….this historical event where a handful of determined, patriotic, God-fearing people overcame the struggles of an oppressive, tyrannical, ruling elite. Stay with me, let me explain. We can all agree that ‘life‘ has value…
As you celebrate the abundance of what you have been given by the Creator of the Universe, may you sit down and be thankful for His mercies. Here is a prayer that I pray for you this day: Dear Heavenly Father, I thank you for the laughter of the children, for my own life breath, for the abundance of food…
Time has a way of catching up with each and every one of us….can I get an ‘amen’? Or maybe it is just me … and just today. The older one gets, I think the more our memory likes to go back into the file cabinet and draw out the more vivid and happy moments in time. This is one…
Good morning! What a beautiful, serene morning…or mid-morning actually. I’m enjoying a week-long break in the form of the seventh biblical feast day of the Lord. It’s called the Feast of Tabernacles, or in short, “Sukkot“. The days have been so enjoyable, so serene, and so needed. Even the alone times – and I’ve had quite a bit of that…
This little girl is my beautiful, sweet, godly young Sierra … she turns 22 today…22! I can hardly believe it when I say it outloud….she was such a spry, active little thing, climbing up haystacks at the farm, letting tiny frogs crawl up her arm, running in and out of the sprinkler…dancing her heart out at nana camp….where have the…
Though times change…..they seem to come around again…at least some things. Here I am……at 2023 Feast of Tabernacles hosted by my son’s ministry, Passion For Truth. My 6 grandchildren are here, my 2 grand sons-in-law and my two precious great-grandchildren. Our family has grown – but it has also lost … my young son, Jason, my husband Jim, and my parents…
The Why and the How…. A long….long…time ago, in a galaxy far away….oh no – that was something else! However, it was a long, long time ago, and in a distant city, that I first discovered the ancient biblical ways. I have not left that galaxy behind, I am still here…even though sometimes I truly do feel in a galaxy…
Another song came on right after the last one…..and it was perfect. My parents were the ultimate in everything they did … really! From raising 6 rambunctious kids, to Girl Scouts and Basketball. From unconditional support when toddlers became teenagers and then young adults to always being there in troubles and needs. They jitter-bugged their way through life – always…
What’s in a Name? Well…. we all know that there is a lot in a name…words mean something (thank you to my friend Brad). This post is just, well, personal, but maybe there is one or two out there that feel my pain. “WIDOW” That word brings forth a lot of emotional ties when said outloud – or spoken silently…
