I don’t know about you, but sometimes I’m not ok. I tend to overthink things often, and if I sit down and start thinking about myself, I realize I’m not ok. I call this self-evaluation.. I know people who never allow themselves to self-evaluate. They never really look at themselves, I mean really look, to… Continue reading OK?

I recently took a CPR/First Aid certification class. During those 2 1/2 hours, our instructor kept saying the victim is dead, so you need to… This got me thinking. If we are dead when our heart stops, when does our spirit leave our body after death? I know if I keep trying to work on… Continue reading Spirits
Wait
As I write this blog today, I am in the hospital waiting area waiting for my brother to have his knee replacement surgery. Waiting is so hard. We spend so much of our time waiting in this life. We are waiting for surgeries to be over; waiting for time to change; waiting for things to… Continue reading Wait
Time
Last night Chris and I were watching a documentary on Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood. I grew up watching him. I remembered most of the clips they showed, and it brought back so many memories. It also made me kind of sad. I was brought to tears at a lot of the clips, and it got me… Continue reading Time
Thanks
When I first started this blog, I will admit that it was for myself. I was going through some personal issues at the time and just needed a place to voice thoughts and get some new thoughts! I want to take the time in a post to thank those of you who comment either on… Continue reading Thanks

They are so scared of the end of the world and facing God. While they are correct, we can never be good enough,… Continue reading Heart

I really like to sing. The only problem is that I don’t have a good voice. I cannot carry much of a tune. I like the new songs we sing during worship and the songs I hear on the radio. But there’s something to be said about the old hymns. I grew up listening to… Continue reading Sing
Yeah, I get it!
When I was younger, before I had any of my own kids, I would make a comment about my own mother out of frustration only to have my sister say, “You’ll understand when you have kids of your own.” How true that statement! I saw a post on Facebook the other day from a friend… Continue reading Yeah, I get it!
Tangled
My kids love the movie Tangled. I’m not sure why except it is a Disney movie and we love all things Disney! At our farm, I saw this tree that has a fence growing through it all tangled up. I couldn’t help but think that is how I feel a lot of time. Sometimes I’m… Continue reading Tangled
Thorns
Have you ever really stopped and thought about the crown of thorns that Jesus was made to wear when He was crucified? Was He the only one the soldiers made this for? What if it was a regular thing the Romans did to everyone being crucified? What if you were the one whose job it… Continue reading Thorns
