Moxie

As I write this last blog of 2018, I want to say I have no New Year’s Resolutions. I have some goals for this coming year of 2019. Some personal goals and some professional goals. There has been a lot of talk about SMART goals in recent past. I had to do SMART goals in… Continue reading Moxie

Laughing

I’m doing a devotional on Proverbs 31. Most of us know this chapter especially if you are a Christian woman. It is a lot to live up to, trying to be like this woman. But one of the things in it hits me hard. It is verse 25. “She is clothed with strength and dignity;… Continue reading Laughing

In Hot Water

There are so many chores for us to do! Cleaning, dusting, mopping, sweeping, and laundry. But aren’t you thankful for the modern appliances with which we have to do these things? I am reading a historical novel right now. In it the female character has to use a washtub, washboard, and a troubling stick for… Continue reading In Hot Water

Trees

There is an exit on the interstate close to our house where the government is working. As I drove through there the other day, I couldn’t help but think of all the trees they are cutting down to make the area larger for the traffic that will soon be traveling through. Several questions run through… Continue reading Trees

Life and Death

A few years ago, one of my daughters and I were talking.

When Jesus was born, the angels sang “Glory to God in the highest and peace on earth, goodwill to men.” Luke… Continue reading Peace

Darkness

What is it about darkness that we dislike so much?   The earth was dark before God created light.  We like it dark to sleep at night.  Without darkness, we couldn’t see lightning bugs, the stars, or any other light.  Lighthouses lead ships home in the dark.  But things always look worse in the dark of… Continue reading Darkness
