Daily Walking with God
Are you fulfilled in life?
We can often be full of ourselves. Currently, while visiting the delicious Savannah, Georgia, I am full of scrumptious sweets, tasty foods, and priceless girl time with my daughter, niece, and sister-in-law. Thanksgiving is only a couple of days away, and most of us...
Windows and Walks…what identifies you?
What identifies you? We have four cars in our driveway daily. By looking at the back windows you can tell whose vehicle is whose. Wait, all but mine. Tim mentioned to me a few weeks ago that I needed to get with the program and procure a decal on the back of my car...
"It is WHEN it is."
Last November we put a contract on acreage that has a home on it. It was a short sale that wasn’t such a “short” process. We finally closed this summer, July 31st to be exact. It was like Christmas in July. Several times throughout this process we thought we were...
More of God, Less of Me
Whoa! I just had a pretty amazing experience. Some may think I’m crazy, but it won’t be the first time people thought I was a little strange. (smile*giggle*wink) Okay, listen…stay with me here: When I woke up this morning I did my normal routine of reading the...
God's Word is so True and Cool
This morning while I was chatting with God my thoughts were racing. Recently my husband has said a few times to me, “Stop stressing over…” I didn’t know I was stressing. I’m not a big worrier. Heck, my “theme” and even the song Tim says defines me is “Don’t Worry Be...
Do you need a light to guide you?
Last night I opened the door to my bedroom and it was pitch dark. I knew the steps to take to get to my side of the bed, but I still used by hands and shuffled my feet to feel my way. I made it without stubbing my toe on an unexpected object or bumping a body part...
Live Life to its Fullest!
Do you want to live life to its fullest? What does that even mean? I enquired others and here are their responses: Create a bucket list and get busy checking it off. Live each day as if it’s your last. Conquering your fears. Taking care of yourself and Living day to...
Laying Down One's Life
I have never been in the position where I would have to lay down my life for someone. I salute and am grateful for those who do on a daily basis. This week we celebrated Veteran’s Day. Each year my school pays tribute to those men and women who have fought and are...
Live…One Day at a Time
Recently while I was cleaning the house I started thinking about my mom’s 75th (shhhh) birthday coming up. She loves gospel music and hearing her children sing. That is her one requests for her birthday; for us to sing together. I imagined us singing songs like “I’ll...
Are you Looking good…Feeling bad?
Yesterday at school, between first and second period, I heard a student screaming in fear out in the hall. Several of us teachers rushed towards him. A precious fellow student was trying to help him, but she was shaking profusely and was determined to assist her...
Who is your Superhero?
According to Merriam- Webster dictionary a superhero is “a fictional character who has amazing powers (such as the ability to fly) or a very heroic person”. That may be true when it comes to how many in society deem a superhero, but mine is REAL with AMAZING POWERS...
People do crazy things…Just be nice.
I see it every day. People often act, react, speak or want to be noticed because they are possibly trying to mask something. Being a middle school teacher, it is evident to me that when I see a kid behaving one way with me, then turn and see how they treat others...
