Things that happen in our lives have a way of either making us stronger or bringing us down. Things that cause so much pain, we don’t know if we are going to make it through. Things that make us so joyful, we cannot help but cry those happy tears! We’ve all experienced probably both. Psalm… Continue reading God Will

My Daddy died September 9, 2011. It was a very sad day. It was a day we also rejoiced. He suffered no more, and frankly, we didn’t have to watch him suffering any more. At his funeral one of the songs we chose to play is Chris Tomlin’s I Will Rise. I love this song.… Continue reading Daddy

In my devotionals and at worship this past week, the word majesty has popped up many times. So much so that I cannot help but think God wants me to say something about it in my blog today. With all the rain and gloominess we’ve had these past few weeks, it’s amazing to sit here… Continue reading Majesty

Growing up going to worship, sometimes I heard the same lessons over and over. Now as an adult, I try to look for new things and ideas in those same stories, and I really appreciate it when others bring something new to them. Last Sunday in worship, the gentleman making comments for the Lord’s Supper… Continue reading Are You All In?

What do you think of when you hear the word home? Do you think of a physical place? Where you live now? Where you grew up? Where your parents live? Or do you think of people? Your own family? Your parents? Maybe your grandparents? For many, it isn’t a pleasant place. Maybe you were abused… Continue reading Home

On our farm we have two ponds. Well, one is really a pond, and the other is when it rains a whole lot. Needless to say, this weekend there were two ponds. I love to go down to them both just to stand or sit, watch, and listen. I especially like to go to the… Continue reading Yes!
