2019 Holiday Lessons I Learned:

It seems God was teaching me some things with the 2019 holidays. The holidays, especially Christmas are not my favorite time of the year. Yes, I own that. A wise young adult told me it's not the holidays that I dislike so much, it's the way people behave. I realized she is right. I prayed...

May We Remember

We all know Christmas is Wednesday. I pray you have a Merry Christmas.🎄 Most of all I pray as we interact with others we'll remember not everyone sees this time of the year the same. Some look forward to it, while others dread it for varies reasons. I hope we'll remember the person we are...

One Of My Favorite Things

We are 9 days away from Christmas. I pray that we remember Christmas is about Immanuel- God with us as He is everyday of the year. I love to get new throws. This is one I purchased this season. You may be thinking what does a throw, even a pretty one have to do with...

Harvest Season by Melanie Langeschulte Book Review

Great Little Cozy Story This book shows to be part of a series but the way it's told it could be read as a stand alone novel, which is how I read it. After a hard few months which included the lost of her job and beloved pet, Melinda is trying to figure out her...

Oven Baked Secrets by Tyora Moody Book Review

"An Enjoyable Read" This is a enjoyable Christian fiction book. At my age I like that some of the main characters are older but not dull and boring. I also like that it's full of mystery. Things aren't always what they seem no matter ones age. If you enjoy a book revolving around family, friendship,...

The Grumble Free Year by Tricia Goyer Book Review

"A Transparent Look At Grumbling In A Family" I've read this author before so I knew the way she writes resonates with me. But to be honest I was in no hurry to read about grumbling. In this world grumbling is something I hear enough of as well as do enough of at times. As...

She Prays by Debbie Lindell Book Review

"Our Prayers Matter" This is my first time reading this authors work. I like the scriptures she shares in the devotional. The chapters aren't too long but the contents of each one shares thoughts to meditate on in relation to prayer and life. She reminds us all through the book how much our prayers matter....
