As I’m preparing for Awana tonight, I think about our theme….Fruits of the Spirit. What a great theme! It’s pulled straight from the Word of God and gives so many attributes for us to practice daily in our lives. As I thought about the passage in Galatians 5:22-23, I thought about how my view has… Continue reading FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT
I dug this post from my “draft archive”. Even though I wrote it over three years ago, it’s still true today. Life truly is about balance. In all the chaotic “express” we live in, find balance and slow down. I am such an impatient person. Really, I am always in a hurry no matter what… Continue reading Living An ‘Express’ Life
Easter is quite possibly my favorite holiday of the year. Why? Because it’s a day of remembrance that Jesus gave his life for me! Nothing can be any better than that. It’s the day we celebrate His resurrection, how that grave couldn’t hold Him, how He rose up in all His power and glory. And… Continue reading Happy Resurrection Day!
The past year has been very different for us. For a while our in-person church services were cancelled, and we watched worship service online. That went on for a few weeks and thank goodness we decided to resume gathering together. It was a hard time for some of us. Don’t misunderstand me, I loved sitting… Continue reading Sweet Sunday
Trying times we are in with being quarantined and practicing social distancing. This Corona Virus (COVID-19) has everyone in a tizzy for sure. I’m trying to stay put at home, but I sure do miss my family. There’s been lots of down time to work on home projects and such, but even that requires going… Continue reading Look For the Good
Being quarantined during COVID-19 has given me a lot of time. Time for things that I usually don’t get around to doing. Today I opted to go through some boxes that have been stacked in my office since we moved here almost two years ago. Oh I knew what was in them, but it wasn’t… Continue reading Handwritten Notes
Why So Many Devices? IPods, cellphone, tablets, and more. What did we ever do without all the devices we have available today? I’m not sure how we survived. It is almost part of getting dressed in the morning, maybe more important. I mean, I may go out without my pants on but you can bet… Continue reading Put Down the Devices
Moving is one of my least favorite things, but you wouldn’t be able to tell it by the number of times I’ve done it in my life. I have moved a lot! This last move was a little different though and not as bad. We didn’t have nearly as much junk after downsizing so much… Continue reading Making It A Home, Making It Our Own
We’re finally moved into our “new to us” home. We’ve got lot’s more to do, as far as finishing all the projects, but we are here. It was a huge job! We worked endlessly for about six weeks getting the house ready to move in. We were so tired every night, but our efforts were… Continue reading What a GRAND Time!
When Marty and I moved to this apartment, more than two years ago, we didn’t plan on it being permanent, but we did know that we no longer needed all the space of our previous home. Being in the apartment has been great, and it’s perfect for just us two. However, we have the grandkids… Continue reading Fixing It Up
