This is a two-part post! First, I'd like to share a little bit about our Thanksgiving Day. This was our first time (Brian and myself!) hosting Thanksgiving dinner in many, many, MANY years. It was a WONDERFUL day of food, fun and family! The week before the big day, I enjoyed making the menu,
Every Day Should Be A Day Of Thanks!
Tomorrow, the fourth Thursday of November, is the day set aside when Americans cook massive amounts of food which of course leads to consuming massive amounts of food! Pulling out and dusting off the fancy china, shimmering goblets and exquisite silverware, which is usually tucked far behind the normal every day dishes and utensils, so that a
The LORD Has Given Me A New Song!
The Bible mentions music and singing hundreds of times. After all, music is a gift to us from God, and when we participate in it, whether by writing, performing, or even just listening, we are giving that special gift back to God as a way of thanking and praising Him! "Sing unto him, sing psalms
After The Election
This is a very difficult post to write since I am writing it days before the outcome of the election is known. I had to prepare it ahead of time so that I could schedule it to be published today! As a born again Christian, I'm definitely praying by the time this post goes

I praise the Lord for those serving the Lord and others in foreign countries. I marvel at the work missionaries accomplish. They're my "spiritual heroes"! I praise the Lord for those serving the Lord
Taking An Intermission From The Election!
I don't know about you, but I'm more than ready for a much needed break from all the election banter. I'm tired of hearing and seeing the same television commercials played over and over and over. A bit overwhelmed by all the comments, personal debates, sarcastic jabs, and downright hatred being posted nonstop on facebook.
Oh, What A Friend!
I have a question for you and you may have to think back a LONG way! Like a few years back! Or maybe, like me, many eons ago! Do you happen to remember those sentimental treasures known as yearbooks? Yes, I had to go WAY back into the reservoirs of my memory bank and wade
It Is Well With My Soul, Or Is It?
This post may appear mixed up and a bit confusing, but I wanted to share how the Lord, at times, totally interrupts and changes what I am writing! That's how I know it's ALL THE LORD and none of me, which makes me so very thankful! The picture below is a plaque which sets on
Lessons Learned From Little Ones!
In my personal opinion, I have no problem understanding why Jesus enjoyed surrounding Himself with children! Children loved Jesus when He was here on Earth. Children still love Jesus! Jesus loved children when He was here on Earth. Jesus still loves children! I love children! I always wanted a house full of little ones, but due
