A Spirit of Excellence
This is not the first post I intended to post in 2019. Maybe that’s why it has taken me this long to post one. I’ve started several different posts and have not been able to finish them. Maybe it’s because they were fluff posts…or maybe it’s because they weren’t my best……. I saw other bloggers…

Did I Start A Whole Facebook Movement? #thankful
Have you ever read something in the Bible that just challenged you? When I first dedicated my life to the Lord, I was devouring scripture. My Pastor had said, “Read the Bible and do what it says.” I thought, “I can do that!” One day I read in 1 Thessalonians 5:18, “give thanks in all…

Going Through the Change (Tearing Down Idols)
No!! Not THAT change! I still have some years to go before that happens. I’m talking about a different kind of change. As a rule, I have always handled change well. My family moved a lot when I was a kid. Every time I would finally start to feel settled somewhere it would be time…

“I Cried On The Way To Work This Morning” or “Grief and Loss of a Loved One”
This time of year is one of my favorites! I love the change in the temperature and the time change. I like college football in the South and the changing leaves. Don’t get me started on the clothes! Sign me up for all the coziness!! Some of my favorite childhood memories are from this time…

What’s Fanning Your Flame?
My Pastor said something yesterday that really challenged me! He said, “What do you do every day to fan the flame of the gift that God has placed inside of you?” 2 Timothy 1:6 says, “For this reason, I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the…

You Don’t Have To Live There Anymore
I have done plenty in my life of which I am ashamed. I have done things that have hurt my family and others around me. I remember when I first started trying to put my life back together. I don’t really have the words to convey to you the level of shame that I was…

My cup is empty: call me Martha.
I think women are prone to just keep going, making sure that everyone else is taken care of at the expense of their own selves. We pour and we pour until there is nothing else to pour. Or this is the case with myself and some of my girlfriends. Take me over the past month…
