Holiday Hug

Hi guys! Just popping in to check on everyone in WordPress. In the US we celebrated Thanksgiving Day on Thursday. Our family is still social distancing and I worked the night before so we had something small and quiet. I didn't take any family pictures but I did enjoy watching my daughters play and put …

Speak the Name

My spirit was hurting today. I put worship music on Pandora as I prayed. Then this beautiful song came on that I've never heard. Speak the Name. I sobbed as I raised His name and let his Spirit seep in through the broken cracks of my soul. There is no other name like Jesus, who …

A Letter to my Oldest Daughter

When you were a baby, I told Daddy that if you ever went to an out-of-state university that I would follow you wherever you went. As much as I want to keep my word, I know it's fanciful. 🤷‍♀️ My little Robin will one day spread her wings and leave my nest. I don't like …

“You are my Daughter”

On Tuesday, I hit the lowest of my blue day segments. God knows I prayed as my head hit the pillow, and later as I knelt in my closet after I pushed to get out of bed. Monday, had been good after many gloomy days, so why did I feel this heaviness again. I didn't …

Perfect Findings

A few days ago I wrote about depression and hoping for better days. The following day I found an old note book heading for the trash but I quickly scanned it to make sure there was nothing of value written in it. I found this on the back cover. Perfect timing when getting out of …

Better Days Ahead

How do you fight the funk? When you know the triggers you learn to avoid it. But when it sneaks up on you and it pushes you off balance, do you try to figure out what happened as you stagger through the days? Or do you force a smile so big your jaw hurts, in …

In the Shadow of Jezebel: Audiobook Review

5 stars!!! It was hard to pause or stop this audio because it was so good! The narrator did an amazing job for this outstanding biblical fiction! Mesu Andrews captures the inner conflict of Sheba with perfection. Submitting to Yahweh's law would be disregarding everything she was raised to believe in. Not to mention the …

Happy Valentine’s Day

Nothing says I love you like chocolates and hand made cards 😉. I hope everyone is having a great weekend. If you are single, widowed, or etc remember you are loved unconditionally by our heavenly father and I send you a virtual hug! ❤️

The Lady in Residence: Review

It was 1 am all was quiet all were asleep and I wanted a chamoy raspa (snow cone). At 2 am I got creeped out and wanted to hide under my blanket. Both reactions were brought on by the mix of ghosts of the past and San Antonian food (I wanted tortillas several times too) …

All That We Carried: Book Review

Omg! I can't imagine a better novel to kick of the year. I couldn't put it down! Such a great sister book that had me laughing, crying and soul searching. Who would go hiking/camping for many days without an experienced guide? Two total opposite sisters who've held resentment against each other for many years. Their …
