God is here
Been feeling at odds and ends lately. Wondering why I am not feeling. Just a few tears every now and then. I want to FEEL more. Perhaps God knows I am not ready yet. Feeling much more of His presence and counsel bringing some comfort. Quote from C.H. Spurgeon:Oh, there is, in contemplating Christ, a … Continue reading God is here
Just thinking
This has been a day of musings. Wondering what the future holds for me...trying to be quiet and listen. Realizing I'm not as loving as I like to think I am....not really going out of my way to help others. Not wanting to be inconvenienced. Wanting to know when to move ahead with possible ways … Continue reading Just thinking
Amazing Love
Deut. 31...I am still in this passage today. Can you imagine a love that gives people land, houses, fields (they didn't prepare), and leads them to victory knowing all the while that once they are settled and satisfied, they will turn their back on you and rebel against every thing you have asked them to … Continue reading Amazing Love

Reading in Deuteronomy 31 today: Be strong and courageous for you shall go with this people....The Lord is the one who goes ahead of you. He will be with you. He will not fail you or forsake you.

Just thinking….
Getting ready for Bible Study at Senior Living center. Beginning Galatians, but don't want to make it about combating false teaching (which abounded then and still does today).

Friends
Friends are so important to us each day and during every event of our lives. Especially friends who live in the Lord. These special friends are so warm, kind, and full of mercy when we need it. They show me the love our Lord Jesus just by being there. I have been blessed with many … Continue reading Friends

Today is the 90 day anniversary of my husband's death. I sure do miss him but am glad to know that he is home with Jesus and healed of his illness. He died of the cancer he had 13 years ago and the radiation side effects. He had no cancer since then. But the continuous … Continue reading third month
