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.

RANDOM THOUGHT – LAUGHTER

   Laughter can cause tears to roll down our cheeks.  If we laugh hard enough, tears can fall down our leg.  Wouldn’t it be great if tears could have the same profound effect on us?

NATURAL BORN SINNERS

Children aren’t taught to be naughty.  It’s as natural as a dog chasing its tail.  Teens aren’t molded into bipolar Dr. Jekyls and Mr. Hydes.  It’s part of the hormonal imbalance of that age.   College students aren’t just naturally rebellious know-it-alls, who think … Continue reading →
