about

I am a Christian wife and mother of 2. I am the mother of two adult children. My husband is a full time Pastor. I also work full time outside of the home. Ecclesiastes 3:1 “To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:” And for this season of our lives, I have to work. A couple of years ago I asked God for a job using me to serve others and that is exactly what He did. Not in the way I expected, but I am serving! This blog is a way for me to share devotions, whatever the Lord lays on my heart. It is an avenue for me fulfill something I feel the Lord leading me in, which is writing. I am currently working on a book as well!

  • Are you hungry?

    Have you ever known what it was like to be truly hungry?  I’m not talking about it being lunchtime and your stomach is growling!  I mean, going days or weeks without hardly anything to eat.  I don’t think anyone that I know has ever had that kind of hunger.    It makes me so sad…

  • Can you feel it?

    The more I pray lately and the more I study the Word, I feel like the Lord is impressing on my heart that something big is coming.  Satan is busier than ever and why do you think that is?  He knows it too.  I feel like right now more than ever it is so important…

  • I heard a message recently preached from Luke 5:17-25.  This is the story about the men that were trying to bring their friend to Jesus.  The friend had a palsy and was unable to walk. When they were unable to get to Jesus through the door, they climbed on top of the house and lowered…

  • Praise Him in the little things

    Life is hard, we can all agree on that.  A lot of times we have some big issues that we are dealing with in some way. We worry and we pray and when God does a mighty work, we praise Him for it.  At least I hope we do.  But, what about those small victories? …

  • So, this year has had it’s challenges.  I’m sure I’m not the only one that can say that.  I’m also very sure that my challenges are small compared to some that others are facing.  Don’t get me wrong, alot of good has happened this year!  Alot of my prayers have been answered this year!  But,…

  • Just a Heartfelt Prayer

    Father, it’s me again. First of all let me thank you and praise you for who you are. I am so thankful that I can come to you with everything. Lord, you know what is on my heart right now and what has been consuming my thoughts.  I’m anxious about some things.  I know that…

  • Hidden Persecution

    As I have mentioned before, I was not raised in church.  But, I was taught a little about the Bible at home.  One of the things that I most remember my parent’s teaching me was about the rapture.  I remember my Dad telling me that if I were here during the rapture I would be…

  • That Good Part

    I don’t have a lot of talent.  I don’t sing or play any instruments.  But, one thing that I feel the Lord has blessed me with is a servant’s heart.  I love to serve.  If I see a need, I try to do my best to help with it.  Which, y’all know in a church,…

  • Taming our Tongues

    The tongue, as we all know, can get us in trouble sometimes. It truly can speak life or death. Our words can truly make or break someone.  That old saying “Sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me” is just not true.  As much as I insisted that it were…

  • Lord, Lord

    A conversation with my son this morning reminded me of a verse in the Bible.  I knew part of the verse but I couldn’t quote it word for word so I looked it up. Matthew was discussing people “in the world” that are also Christians.  But the songs they sing or the way the act…
