About atimetoshare.me

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.

IT IS FINISHED!

The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn down the middle. Jesus called out with a loud voice, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.” When he had said this, he breathed his last. Luke 23:45-46 At the moment that our Savior spoke His last words … Continue reading

FREEDOM!

The cry for freedom has been shouted for centuries. I wonder if William Wallace, a Scottish knight who fought for Scotland’s Independence in the thirteenth century, ever had thoughts that he would someday be portrayed in an epic performance. His … Continue reading

WAIT A LITTLE LONGER

Gliding through the morning waters, watching as the sun breaks through, All alone as diamonds glisten, dancing in the shining dew, Slicing through the still clear water, searching for the perfect place, Never hearing sounds that haunt you, feel the wind upon … Continue reading

ABIDE WITH ME

Swift to its close ebbs out life’s little day;earth’s joys grow dim, its glories pass away.Change and decay in all around I see.O thou who changest not, abide with me. Hold thou thy cross before my closing eyes.Shine through the … Continue reading

FIRE & BLOOD IN THE STREETS

A BRIDGE TO SOMEWHERE

A tattered bridge seemingly leads to nowhere, It swings precariously over a raging river of trouble, An ominous, green cast shrouds the waters, In the haze of life’s existence, We could despair, We could fall, We could hang on for dear life, Or … Continue reading
