Pillow Promises
Seems the new “sleeping” trend these days is satin pillowcases. That is one of the Christmas presents on my granddaughter’s list last year that I purchased for her for $49. So, when Bed, Bath and Beyond was having its store closing sale, I bought two at $4.50 each. I wanted to see if what “they”…
Is it Naptime Yet?
Most everyone that reads my blog will notice that I am an early riser. I have a built-in alarm clock that awakens me around 4 am. I use that early morning time to go over my blog one more time before I post it before 6 am. My promise to God was to post my…
He Leads Us — No Fear Here
For some time, my daughter has been encouraging me to write a book that includes my blogs. I haven’t had the drive to write it yet because each day I realize that I am not the author of my faith story. I’m still here, pressing onward and upward, so I’ll just keep journaling via my…
Got Desert? Green Pastures Await!
Last week we played as much outdoors pickleball as we could because the weather folks said we would have torrential rains all this week! Not! At least in the daytime, though we had some good downpours during the night. It’s difficult to think of desert when an abundance of rain just blessed our dry, thirsty…
Do You Hear What I Hear?
I read the FB post of a precious friend yesterday who has been so intentional for believing for a miracle for the entire ten years of her darling son’s life. Kingston has a terminally diagnosed illness called Trisomy 13. Kingston, who has been physically limited in so many ways, brings so much joy to his…
That 4-Letter Word….Rest
I was drawn to the word “rest” after our diehard president was forced to stop and rest when he tested positive for the C-virus. A few days ago, I heard him respond to an interviewer’s question: “What symptoms were you having before you tested positive for the coronavirus?” He responded: “I just didn’t feel the…
A Good Shepherd Leads His Sheep & Goats
Here I go again with more inspiration from “the tales of Bryson”. My youngest grandson’s life is consumed with the great outdoors and his animals, so of course, his live-stock causes my mind’s “ticker tape” to keep rolling! His priority is his animals’ care and he loves it when I help him feed them at…
How Can We Lie Down in Green Pastures? They’re Flooded.
One of my go-to scriptures, especially when I’m encouraging someone who is bed-fast because of an injury or illness, is Psalm 23:1-3 “The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul.” I share: “Obviously, God is wanting…
Got Desert? Green Pastures Await You!
It’s difficult to think of desert in the midst of the torrential rains we had in the last 24-hours here in Frisco. But, deserts did come to mind when I thought about the “desert experiences” of life. Not far from the lush rolling hills in Austin where my children live, you can find yourself in…
He MAKES Me Lie Down in Green Pastures
In yesterday’s post, I mentioned I was heading over to the main house as my month-long hiatus had come to an end. Famous last words – little did I realize that the flu virus hanging around Austin had caught up with me. “Lord, have mercy” was my prayer for the next 24 hours. After I…
