Walking with God

Stay away from that path; don’t even go near it. Turn around and go another way.  Proverbs 4:15 Walking the Blackwater Creek Preserve with my man is peaceful, and sometimes eventful way to begin my morning. This week, we were chatting and walking, when I notice we had...

We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure.  Hebrews 6:19 Soaking Up The Son t-shirts are ready for you to order!  Also…I’m soooo excited about where a portion of the proceeds will go! I’m thrilled about these soft, comfortable, and modest shirts...

Update on Landen: Prayers are working! This is a child was born without oxygen for at least four minutes, causing his brain to die in areas, which caused lesions. Along with other complications which occurred during delivery, the parents were told that he has...

Yesterday was a day “for the birds”.  Literally.  While I was enjoying some time with Jesus on my husband’s barn porch,  “Tim’s Shack”  , a plethora of birds began congregating in front of me, eating grub from the ground. I stopped counting around 70.  Seriously! I...

  I like this verse.  I like this verse a lot! People who try hard to do good and be faithful will find life, goodness, and honor.  Proverbs 21:21 ERV Why do people say, “God’s word is alive and active”?  First of all, because the bible says so. For the word of God is...

Well, I’ve already failed.  My husband encouraged me to make short videos.  So, after praying about what God wanted me to do, I (thought) came up with the idea of “Minute-less Mondays”.  The intention is to create a video in one minute or less, then you can go to the...

The LOVE month continues… Three things I LOVE are prayers, babies, and the Lord. So, I’d like to have you join me in prayer for two precious babies…Liam and Landen. Liam was born (in December) with a “half-a-heart”.  The specific medical terminology is Hypoplastic...

For those of you who are on the social media avenue, Facebook, please go visit, like, comment, extra on the Soaking up the Son page. (https://soakinguptheson.com/new/?s=Deuteronomy+6%3A5) Yesterday, I did a short live video on Love.  Why not?! February is the LOVE...

I am free!  I am free!  I am no longer a taxi mom. Mine and Tim’s third and final child recently turned sixteen. A mix of emotions washed over me when Cole proudly received his drivers license. On the last day of me taxing him to school, I mentioned to Cole, “You...

Can you relate to this piece of furniture?  Seriously…listen… When I first procured this adorably shaped table, it was a hot mess.  The legs were wobbly and cracked, the drawer was falling apart (Well, it actually did fall apart.), and the paint was in need of some...

“Look at the birds.  They don’t plant, harvest, or save food in barns, but your heavenly Father feeds them.  Don’t you know you are worth much more than they are?  You cannot add any time to your life by worrying about it.  And why do you worry about clothes?  Look at...

Another lesson from the cows. About a couple of days after those silly cows got themselves into “hitchhiker” trouble again (Click here) , Cole came inside and said, “Those cows have done a good job helping clean each other up.”  I said, “There’s another devotion.” In...
