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.

There is something about the language we use as mothers. I think it begins as a form of tradition. I’m talking about the “clean your room” phrase for one. Then there’s the one about not making silly faces or your … Continue reading →

FROM WORRIER TO WARRIOR

Posted on May 3, 2022 by atimetoshare.me

I’d consider myself a worrier. It may have something to do with being a fixer as well. In my growing up years, I felt a responsibility for my baby sister. I took it on myself to tell her what to … Continue reading →

PRAYERS FOR UKRAINE

Posted on April 28, 2022 by atimetoshare.me

I cannot begin to imagine what the Ukrainians are dealing with in their country. The United States seems oblivious to the wars that rage around us and seem eager to send money and arms, but not really providing any kind … Continue reading →

WEDNESDAY WISDOM

Posted on April 27, 2022 by atimetoshare.me

I guess you could say I was a child that grew up on “screen time.” My screen was an 8″ black and white TV, upon which I spent Saturday mornings wallowing in Looney Toons cartoons. I would then spend the … Continue reading →

SILENT, BUT DEADLY

Posted on April 25, 2022 by atimetoshare.me

I am part of the “Silent Generation” or more commonly known as a Traditionalist – or those born from 1923-1945. We all have our pluses and minuses, but many of us old timers seem to think that the Newbies are … Continue reading →

LESSONS FROM NATURE

Posted on April 23, 2022 by atimetoshare.me

A seed drops, It burrows and nestles into rich soil, It springs forth with new life, Fragile branches at first, Growing strong with each passing day, Expanding, stretching, embracing the sky, Reaching for the face of its Creator, It bends … Continue reading →

WHERE CAN I GO TO HIDE?

Posted on April 20, 2022 by atimetoshare.me

A hiding place where no one knows or sees or hears the truth, A place where you can tuck away the trespasses of youth, When hearts submit to God’s sweet call to come and be with Him, Those sins will … Continue reading →

CITY SCAPES

Posted on April 20, 2022 by atimetoshare.me

City within a darkened world, has beauty all its own, The wires that lace throughout the space, the litter lying there, The sounds of box cars hooking up, a place where crime is sown, Where homeless search the garbage cans, to find … Continue reading →

EASTER MEMORIES

Posted on April 17, 2022 by atimetoshare.me

I recall the times when we would get all dolled up for Easter. Even the term, “dolled up,” is kind of telling. We put on our best. We wore brand, new clothes, shoes, hats, gloves and other adornments to celebrate … Continue reading →

A DAY OF UNREST

Posted on April 16, 2022 by atimetoshare.me
