Not Missing God’s Invitations
How thankful we are to have finished a successful estate sale at Carl’s home! Three days of crowds who were welcomed and immediately heard beautiful sounds of K-Love’s Christian music playing in the background. Many people said: “I love your music!” We sold that vintage stereo system with its Hi-Fi, double cassette player, 5-CD player,…
Coincidence or PROVIDENTIAL Circumstance

Before Mom’s Estate Sale, I sent pictures to my children of “Granny’s Home” unlike any way they could conceive – in complete disarray compared to the pristine way it always looked “on her watch”.

A useless Tupperware lid for one, but for another it was just what they needed. Old worthless baby stroller for one, to another it was…
You Are His Treasured Possession

One Man’s Trash is a Raccoon’s Treasure
I live in a new community where five homes are being built to the east and west of me. The good news about being the first to build in a new subdivision is you have your choice of lots (mine backs up to a beautiful pond). The bad news about being the first to build…
