As Easter’s brilliance begins to wear off, we’re left with an afterglow. The promise that our lives don’t end with our last breath. This is the confidence I have for myself, for my dear Paul, for my family and friends and all who come to know the blessing of Easter’s message. He has arisen, and because of that, we will be raised from death to spend eternity in paradise.
An empty chair – a quiet house,
With you not there – the tears arouse.
I think of you – there is no doubt,
What can I do? What’s this about?
A lifetime spent in loving you,
My own last cent just would not do.
Our Lord said “Wait, I paid the cost.”
An open gate led from the cross.
He conquered death. The debt He paid.
With His last breath His life He gave.
My tears go on until I die. When it does come I will not cry.
As I reach the end of my years, I find I have a lot of good information stored up in this old decrepit mind of mine. If I don't write it all down, it may vanish and no one will have the advantage of my thoughts. This is why this blog exists. I love the Lord, Jesus with all my heart and soul. I know I'm undeserving of all He's done for me, but I also know that His love is beyond my comprehension.
I've always wanted to write. I never kept diaries, but tucked my thoughts in my head for future reference. I use them now in creating stories, plays, poetry and my blog.
I continue to learn every day. I believe the compilation of our time spent with God will have huge affect on the way we live. I know I'm a sinner and I need a Savior. I have One through Jesus, Christ.
My book, "Stages - a memoir," is about the seven stages of life from the perspective of a woman. It addresses all the things girls and women go through in life as they travel it with Jesus, and it is available on Amazon.com.
Thank you, dear friend. You are an inspiration to so many. Even when our faith doesn’t seem strong enough, Jesus is. Take his hand and feel the power surge. He is our lifeline. Love you Karla!

Life is a patchwork of moments — laughter, solitude, everyday joys, and quiet aches. Through scribbled stories, I explore travels both far and inward, from sunrise over unfamiliar streets to the comfort of home. This is life as I see it, captured in ink and memory. Stick around; let's wander together.
God's amazing grace removes walls and replaces those barriers with Jesus, freedom from sin's consequences, freedom to forgive, and freedom to love unconditionally.
