You Can Count Your True Family And Friends On One Hand James 1:2-3 Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of any kind.

Two Dear Ones Whose Positive Attitudes Aided Their Healing Process James 5:13-15 Is any of you in trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise. Is any one of you sick? He should call on the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. Let me tell you stories about two profound, strong women who took their own health care seriously. In pulling their…
She and Mom Blessed Me With Their Wisdoms Because I asked and Listened James 1: 2-3 Consider it pure joy, my brothers when you face trials of many kinds. Because you know that testing your faith develops perseverance. I was so blessed to be of the linage of mom and granny. It’s their faith, teachings, and examples that led me to Christ. Oh I was somewhat of a rebel in my youth, but my faith was my foundation. Granny always said,” With age comes wisdom, and experience is the best teacher.” At 70 all of her words have…
Who Me? Mark 5:28-34 She thought, If I just touch His clothes, I will be healed. Immediately, her bleeding stopped, and she felt in her body that she wasfreed from her suffering. At once, Jesus realized that the power had gone out of Him. “Who touched my clothes?” You see people crowding all around you, and yet you ask, “Who touched me?” But Jesus kept looking around to see who had done it. Then the woman, knowing what had happened, fell at His feet, trembling with fear, and told Him the truth. He said to her, ”Daughter, your…
“You Know The Lord, Don’t Ya, Hun?” Luke 1: 76-79 And you, my child, will be called a prophet of The Most High; for you will go on before The Lord to prepare a way for Him, to give His people knowledge of salvation through the forgiveness of their sins, because of the tender mercies of God by which the rising sun will come to us through heaven to shine on those living in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path of peace. It was an average day. I went into…
Addiction Is a Self-Devouring, Bacteria Psalm 105:4 Look to the Lord and His strength; seek His face always. John 15:11 I have told you this so that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be complete. Self-devouring, flesh-eating bacteria can take your life quickly.

Can…You…Answer…The…Question?????? “You better study for the test!” (Granny) Titus 3:4-6 But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of His mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, through Jesus Christ our Savior, whom He poured out on us generously. So that having been justified by His grace, we might become heirs having hope of eternal life. OK PROFESSING CHRISTIANS……you better start standing up for your rights and freedoms, because…
Once You Get It! PSALM 139:1-3 O Lord, You have searched me and know me. You know when I sit down, and when I rise up. You understand my thought from afar. You scrutinize my path and my lying down. You are intimately acquainted with all my ways. Oh! LOLOLO…The title is from a 1960’s breakfast commercial. This Lil root’n’toot’n cowboy would say, “Wake up you rattlesnake! I want my Maypo!” What’s so funny? I reiterate the greeting every morning, as I give my beloved sister her wake-up call. OK….. Down…
Growing Deep Roots And Long Limbs Isaiah 61: 3 They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting for the Lord. Isaiah 61:9 Their descendants will be known among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples. My husband and I look at each other…”How in God’s name did we do it?Anyone that makes raising children in a hard working, Christian Environment a priority, knows that it is a defining goal for their characters. Raising kids in a Godly manner …IS NOT EASY!!!! Just like all teens, our kids were a pain in the butt, and…
THE WHEELS ON THE BUS GO ROUND AND ROUND On Your Worst Day Find Something For Which You May Be Thankful. Psalm 13: 6 I will sing to the Lord, for He has been good to me. MADISON HERB SOCIETY: What a great,humorous, group of talented, Christian Women to which I belong! There are no requirements to join; all that is necessary one must have a love of plants and herbs. I am a porch planter, and enjoy cooking with herbs. Ever since last fall, four of us researched. We made numerous phone calls, inquiries, reservations, and planned a…
Yes, The Fruit Of The Spirit.Is Yummy. Gal 5:22-26 But the Fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Against such things, there is no law. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking, and envying each other. Fruit is yummy, I love it so. The Spirit teaches, The things we should know. Many don’t listen. They are all about…
Psalm 3:5 I lie down and sleep; I awake again because The Lord sustains me. Psalm 4:8 I lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety. We’ve all been there and done that: the job, the marriage, the kids, the divorce, the demise, the birth, the game, the farm, the weather, the finances, pissy siblings/friendships, the business. Sleepless nights, tossing and turning: Last night was one of them. It was totally my fault. I took a nap, and had a high caffeine choco-brownie right before I went…
God’s Timing Doesn’t Always Align With Ours! Isaiah 55:8-9” For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares The Lord. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.” Trusting and surrendering to the will of God, is not an easy pill to swallow. Our farm is a Century Farm. We married in ‘1972 and have farmed the land for 47 years. Plus, my Mr. Moo Cow milked Holsteins for 43 years, before he sold…
1 Cor. 6:19-20 Do you not know that your body(and mind) is a temple of the Holy Spirit? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.” WOW! That took guts! To reverse the decision, of who attained the rightful title of the Ky. Derby, was not an easy one to make. However, if you watched the videos closely, you could see that Maximum Security did foul some other participants. At one point, the jockey was fortunate that hooves didn…
My Little Girl Pets are a gift from God. What are so amazing are the wisdoms they teach us. Almost three years ago, I brought home, male and female siblings, Chocolate Labs. Sadie is my little Girl, and is definitely a bossy “Lil B.” However, the things she has taught me are over the moon. Since we lost our beloved 14 yr. old Lab Polly/Apollo, a few days before Xmas, she has taken the leadership position. Whereas; her brother Petie was neutered, and tends to be very docile.  …
