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.

ALELLUIA, HE IS RISEN!

HE IS RISEN – NOW WHAT?
The alleluias have been sung to the point of raising the church roof. The sound of the timpani drum resonates in our hearts. Trumpets, harps, French horns and flutes add to the beauty of our worship. The voices, the prayers, the … Continue reading
HIDDEN THINGS

DON’T TAKE AWAY MY JOY !

LET ALLELUIAS RING

WEEP NO MORE

SILENT SATURDAY
Last night, as we said these words in church, the voice of Jesus was so apparent to me. How could those who placed Him on the cross not have known that this indeed was their promised Messiah? The words had been … Continue reading
