I am a Christian, Jesus follower; been married for 21 years and have 2 grown children. I work full time and enjoy cooking and baking, art, and nature. I spend time everyday with God, and needed an outlet for my thoughts. I started this blog hoping it would help other people who are going through the same things or having the same feelings... and to share stories from my life.

Stepping out of your comfort zone

I have always lived my life on the safe side of things. Never taking risks, always planning ahead, always thinking ahead, always considering how my actions or words would impact someone else... things like that. I never stepped out of my comfort zone. Never did anything impulsive, and never ever asked for help. I wanted … Continue reading Stepping out of your comfort zone

Do not be a lover of the SELF

I saw this meme today on Pinterest, and it really got to me how the world has been lied to with selfishness like this. Putting yourself first is denying God's Word. Here are some scripture references that speak to the contrary... Philipians 2:3Do nothing from rivalry or conceit, but in humility count others more significant … Continue reading Do not be a lover of the SELF

Enter through the NARROW gate

Matthew 7:13-14 Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. How important it is to keep this scripture in mind. It should … Continue reading Enter through the NARROW gate

Worry, you have no place here

The worry is deep in my heart. The gnawing, itching feeling that won't leave me alone. The "what ifs" keep running through my mind. Can I control the outcome of these situations? No. Can I change the circumstances surrounding them? No. It's like an infection, a disease; it grows and becomes more complicated. It finds … Continue reading Worry, you have no place here

What am I missing?

What I thought was gone... is still there. I was awakened this morning (and the last two mornings) very early with that gnawing, unquenchable anxious feeling in the pit of my stomach again. I know exactly what it is... but I thought it was gone. I thought I had prayed it away before Christmas. I … Continue reading What am I missing?

Fighting the spirit or the flesh?

Forgive my writing skills in this... I was just so excited to share this experience with you, that I just had to get it all out this morning as soon as possible. No time to re-write or edit... I just felt led by the spirit to share this with all of you right away. Today … Continue reading Fighting the spirit or the flesh?

A New Years Improvement

Well, it's 2019. The first day of a new year. I have pondered a lot of things this morning; especially what to blog about. I wondered if I should write about resolutions, and new years reflections... but that almost seems old hat - and bound to get lost in the infinite pool of reflections, resolutions, … Continue reading A New Years Improvement
