Daily Walking with God
Are you prepared?
Today, I was messaging a friend…actually a lady whom I’ve never personally met, only her mother, and we connected, and now I feel like we are two peas in a pod…anyhow…she was encouraging me to write a few things as we (here in Florida) are preparing for Hurricane...
Decorating Vol 3: We are All Eclectically Designed
I love to decorate with items that either tell a story, remind me of places I’ve traveled to, looks interesting, or I simply just like. When you walk into my home, you may look and say as my precious friend said, “I’m not sure how to describe your style. Eclectic?...
God is not my co-pilot. He’s my Pilot.
Don asked, “Does anyone want to go flying?” I popped my resting head up off the pillow, where I was power napping on the couch, and quickly responded, “I do!” Off we went. Headed to the hanger, where Don keeps his plane, I was excited to see the beautiful Georgia land...
Decorating Vol 2. Life’s an Adventure
Yesterday, while traveling in the truck, heading to the hunting camp in Georgia, “I” would search the bible for verses to fit into the next decorating journal entry. Nada. But…shocker…God had a plan. Each morning, before I rise or seek the face of man, I seek the face...
Decorating Vol.1, A Strong Foundation

Heart Breaks and Joys
Over the past several days I have found myself fixated on watching the news report which were keeping America updated with the sights and stories from Hurricane Harvey. My heart ached for those in Harvey’s path, and still does for all. Yet, I’m also encouraged by what...

Chatting with God
Prayer is a HUGE part of my life. This past week I’ve been lacking on journaling, but busy about praying. While “busying” myself with chores or going about my daily life, God and I chat. Pulling weeds. Driving down the road. Washing dishes. Singing. Being observant...
Knot the way it was supposed to be
I heard a thundering boom. When I leaped from the truck and overheard a friend say, “Where’s Tim?”, my heart leaped out of my chest. As I ran to the edge of the dock, getting ready to jump in and search for my man, Tim came out of the water, from about ten feet from...
Don’t look at the sun, look to The Son
The newscasters were giving a plethora of information to all regarding how to prepare for viewing and reminding us to NOT look at the sun. Social media was buzzing with articles, videos, and excitement. Schools were either closing, not opening, or excusing students...
Are you One-of-Those?
This summer I had a conversation with an intelligent and wonderful woman. She is a retiring from the professional world, and about to enter the life of retirement. During our conversation, she mentioned to me about a letter I should have received in the mail. I stated...
