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.

WHY GO TO CHURCH?
We sometimes form our ideas about attending church out of habit, need or willingness. When we gather or assemble we are doing more than that. We have been invited to confess our sins, to receive absolution and forgiveness, to give … Continue reading
NO WORK ON THE SABBATH

NO CHURCH TODAY

SUNDAY MORNING

DOES GOING TO CHURCH MAKE YOU A CHRISTIAN?
ORIGINALLY POSTED ON 6/26/16 Many think that they’re above reproach or no longer considered sinful if they simply attend church. Many are also there because they feel safe from the world outside. Some even use church as a place to … Continue reading
EMPTY SEATS – FULL HEARTS

IS IT TIME FOR ANOTHER REFORMATION?
Originally posted by atimetoshare.me on 10/31/15 Throughout history the world has managed to corrupt everything that comes from God’s Word, the Bible. This distortion continues today when we hear how many churches have eliminated using the Law of God, because … Continue reading
I LOVE A PARADE!
Just a few days ago, we celebrated the birth of our nation in our new home town of Anoka, Minnesota. When we moved here last fall, we also moved to a new church so that we could attend services with … Continue reading
OPEN DOOR – OPEN ARMS
We’re loving our new “old” house more and more every day. In the past few weeks, we’ve been tinkering around in the yard, establishing a few new gardens and clearing out some of the old ones which have overgrown. It … Continue reading
WHAT’S MISSING IN CHCH? U R!

SOME DAYS JUST DON’T GO WELL
Some days nothing goes right. You’re late for an appointment because you’re stuck in traffic. You left your cell phone charging at home, so can’t call to let them know. Your hair wouldn’t cooperate this morning and you look like … Continue reading
