FOR THE LOVE OF YOU
February is the month of love. So, they say. Actually it is practiced daily by many Christians and Non-Christians.

If we seek to serve others, then that service will return … Continue reading FOR THE LOVE OF YOU
“I Can’t See It”
A bunch of whooie! This is usually our reaction when others tell us that there's a blessing on the way and we don't see it. Do we have to see it for it to be true? No. Gods word tells us that, "Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not … Continue reading “I Can’t See It”
“RESURRECTION SUNDAY”
Today was so much more than the secular image of Bunnies laying spectacularly decorated chicken eggs. Or, what about the commercial for chocolate bunnies?

The Majesty of Hawks and Moon
I brought my distress to the Waters of Women. There I threw myself down amongst the flowers and sweet grasses. It was there I poured out my agony to God. My tears soaked my thick hair with the salt of them. I cried. I moaned. When, Lord God? Will this burdened load push me down … Continue reading The Majesty of Hawks and Moon
Lord
This was my burden that I placed before the Lord my God. "Father, I am alone. I am of no regard to anyone. I am afraid of everything and everyone. Help me, please." The Lord said, "Walk to the West. Leave everything you have behind, my child." I began to walk toward the West. I … Continue reading Lord

It is with my testimonies that others gain strength and realize that God answers prayers, accepts our praise and stands by with His might for our battles. As a Parent we don't want to … Continue reading This Mother’s Road
