It’s the Little Things

Faith Collages

I felt a little better today. I picked up, did some cleaning, got dinner going, and even wrote some poetry! My book is truly underway. I plan to self-publish next fall. I need to make the most of the days I feel ok. I never know when I'll get them. I have too much housework … Continue reading Faith Collages

Church, Snow

We were supposed to be welcomed as members into our church today, but I vomited on the way. We were maybe 10 minutes from church when I started spewing and eventually couldn't swallow it down. I feel so bad. They were prepared to welcome us. Since then I have been resting. My dear husband made … Continue reading Church, Snow

Reading these books … Continue reading Seminary Reading

There have been calls he made that I did not think were best. But in these situations, blessings have always come from following … Continue reading Submission Brings Blessings

New Church

We ended up trying a new church this morning because our church was shut for the Fall retreat we didn't go on. We went to a church far away, because it was the denomination we wanted, which is hard to find. When I tell you this church was wonderful, it lacked nothing. The service was … Continue reading New Church
