PRAYER: DOES IT WORK?…
Yesterday, I took a walk to try to help me shed these pounds that do NOT want to leave. I also needed time to think. There was plenty to think about! KELLIE A few weeks ago, a friend who used to live here, woke up with a numb hand only to find out she had… Read more

THE DARK SIDE…
How did I get on this topic? I was writing about heaven! As I wrote, I ended up on this topic in a post that was already too long…so I made this into part II. If you didn’t read part I, read it first. This will make much more sense after that. It will definitely… Read more

DOUBLE WHAMMIES…BROUGHT TO YOU BY GOD’S GRACE…
WHAMMY ONE-Have you ever found yourself being critical of someone and realized as you were verbalizing the words to yourself or a trusted friend, that you were talking about yourself! That happened this week. I found myself being critical of someone who, by her neglect of herself, had put a burden on others. For some… Read more

I AM BLESSED. THANK YOU GOD!…
Yes, It’s that time of year. The start of Christmas shopping? NO! Emphatically no! This is the week we pause, if we have the will, to be thankful. Thankful. Grateful. Appreciative. Blessed. To the degree we are truly aware of the fact that we are blessed; to the degree we make the time to be thankful;… Read more
