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.

I DON’T WANT TO BE A SHEEP
I’ve had the opportunity to direct several Christmas pageants over the years and one thing is for sure. No one wants to be a sheep. Sheep are stubborn – they stray from the flock and get in trouble – they … Continue reading
MY SHEPHERD IS MY KING . . .
This beautiful relief carving was installed in January, 2003 at Bay Pines Lutheran School, in Bay Pines, Florida. A friend recently sent photos of it so I’m sharing it with a poem I wrote to go along with it. Paul … Continue reading
WHEN PEACE CAME TO EARTH . . .
Today is the second Sunday in Advent. Another candle is lit on the Advent wreath. A sermon about repentance and forgiveness is spoken with passages from the Bible referring to the forerunner of Christ, John the Baptist. This was the … Continue reading
IN SEARCH OF THE LIGHT
Christmas lights are everywhere. In fact, they started to market them way back in August as the end of summer triggered the start of the holiday season. The call for making a buck can be annoying, but Christmas is something … Continue reading
CHRISTMASES PAST – PART FOUR
In the late 1950s, the Christmas parade was a major event in Milwaukee. People would line the streets – row upon row. Small children would sit on the shoulders of a parent to get a better view of the many … Continue reading
WE SHOULD NEVER FORGET
Remembering Pearl Harbor Day is like being reminded of 9/11 and another attack on American soil. My mother’s birthday is December 8 and she remembered the day well. She was a young woman of 20 and pregnant. She and my … Continue reading
JOSEPH, A MAN OF FAITH & HONOR

A NEW MONTH WITH ABOUNDING HOPE
The month of December is filled with so much of everything, we tend to forget what the season means and the hope that is built into it. In a little town, long ago, a child was born. He was no … Continue reading
SHOP ‘TIL YOU DROP
Yesterday was my first day of Christmas shopping. I visited Hobby Lobby in hopes of finding some crafts I could make instead of investing in high buck gifts this year. I remembered how I used to make beautifully decorated ornaments … Continue reading
FEAR & ANGER CAN LEAD TO HATE
I watched a devotion from Time of Grace Ministry this morning that really made sense to me. It was about how grief can easily transfer into fear and fear into anger. We get angry when someone leaves us behind – … Continue reading

SENSELESS
To be “senseless,” is to lack the ability to feel. It can also mean useless, unreasonable or unconscious. For someone in my age bracket, senseless can mean the loss of physical sensations like, hearing, taste, touch, smell or see. All … Continue reading
