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.

KITCHEN CENTERPIECE

I WISH I HADEN’T SAID THAT
Words spill out of my mouth thoughtlessly, Unyielding my tongue pushes them into the world. Where did those words come from? My mind does not take the time to realize The way they could be interpreted, The way they could hurt, … Continue reading
HOLES IN THE SKY

THE BEAT OF A DIFFERENT DRUM

LAMB OF GOD
A lamb goes uncomplaining to its death. The pure, free from blemish sacrifice would atone for the sins of man. Today blood sacrifices are unnecessary because the true Lamb of God, Jesus, came to take our place – to be … Continue reading
MOTHER, DID YOU KNOW?

HE DIED
