My daughter was making a picture the other day. It had a shining man in a robe, standing at the end of a path, a fence with a gate off on one side, a tree with flowers on the other side, three rainbows criss-crossing each other across the sky, and other typical things found in …
It’s been a little while since I posted, I know… life’s been busy. We’ve had our house on the market, dropped our asking price twice, finally got a buyer, encountered problems, worked out problems, encountered more problems, heard they got worked out, had the whole sale fall through, found out there might be a possibility …
Once someone in an e-group asked all of the “prayer warriors” on the list a question. It was something along the lines of: “How do you keep up with all of the prayer requests that people ask you to pray for?” Now I do NOT consider myself to be a prayer warrior, but nonetheless, I …

My last post got my sister and I talking, and we both agreed that our conversation would make a good blog entry… to see how many other people are realizing the same things we are. As she wrote in her comment, “I have been impressed recently as to the fact that insecurity and lack of …
