PURGATORY MY VERSION IS PERFECT:LOL! PERKATORY:The Anguished, Prolonged Period Spent Waiting For A Fresh Pot Of Coffee To Be Ready. GUESSWHAT???? I don’t have a scripture!!! Why, because it’s not in the Bible. Twelve Years of Catholic School preached it so much that I wanted to SCREAM!!!!! With my OCD, I worried for years that I’d have to go through more punishment after life’s sufferings. Even after I went to Confession at least once a year, there was no peace. UNTIL I GOT IT! My God is not an accuser. He supped with sinners…
CONSIDER IT A GIFT? YEAH RIGHT! I Had To Put On My Big Girl Panties. James1:2 Consider it a gift, friends, when tests and challenges come to you from all sides. It was one of those days. Nothing traumatic….just ONE BIG MESS! I was just beginning to make preparations for my part-time job as a PAX Partner in Union Co. Schools. I was to meet with a Co-worker at the office to prep at 1:00p.m. I had already changed our meeting time once, since I was to pick my sister up at the airport…
For unto us is born this day, in the city of David, a saviour, who is Christ the Lord….. What does God look like? The bible teaches us that man was created in His image. The bible also teaches us that Jesus is God. So obviously, He looks like His Father! I challenge you to think past that; look at a newborn baby, a homeless person, an abused child, a victim of abuse, a victim of war, and so on. These are all faces of God! We like to think of Him in beautiful things, but He is in…
SO IT SHALL BE WRITTEN….SO IT SHALL BE DONE Yul Brynner’s Quote in The Ten Commandments. The Bible: The Map of Our Future Jeremiah 33:3 Call to Me and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things which you do not know. That’s what the Word of God does. He does show me great and mighty things: *When I spend time with just Him. * He gives me insight and wisdom. *He teaches me about the past, present, and about what is to come. Quite often He’ll freak me out with the following…

DRIVE THE TRACTOR! PLOUGH THROUGH IT! You’ll Come Out Stronger On The Other Side. Psalm 112:7 He will have no fear of bad news. His heart is steadfast trusting in the Lord. This scripture sounds good doesn’t it? It’s great to say, ”I’ve been through a lot. I’m a survivor. The suffering defined me and I’m a strong woman.” It’s all true. I am a very strong woman. However, I still have a lot of fields to plough. My husband and I both have grown a lot together in 46 years. Here…
WATCH GOD WORK HIS MIRACLES. America On The Edge Oh Israel…I will Bless Those who Bless You….I will Curse Those who Curse You! I believe in the Covenant that God has made with Israel. For those of you who follow me, you already know that I am a conservative Christian. God Bless Our President! The above scripture says it all! Due to the fact that our President moved the American Embassy to Jerusalem, watch how Our God fulfills prophecy. Watch in great expectation for America to be blessed. The day the Embassy was opened, Pastor Jeffers stated the…
HE DELIGHTS IN ME? WHAT THE? WHO ME???? The Lord your God is with you. He is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you. He will quiet you with His love. He will rejoice over you with singing. Psalm 73:23-26 Yet, I am always with you, you hold me by your right hand. You guide me with Your counsel, and afterward You will take me into glory. Whom have I in heaven but You? Earth has nothing I desire besides You? My flesh and heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart…
YOU HAVE TO BURN A LOT OF MARSHMALLOWS………. TO CREATE A GREAT SOMEMORE. Sometimes I’m Feeling Quite Crispy!

We have a great deal of life experience. In fact we have mentored many young people. Throughout…
He Wanted Me to Know, ”IT WAS ME!” Suffering Creates Wisdom, Change, And Knowledge Colossians 1:29 Without God ,I can do nothing.

wedding in 1948 Mother. Mom. Mommy. Mama. She will go by many names and for many she is a beloved figure in their lives. For me, she was my best friend and anchor, and I lost her, in this world, 20 years ago! My mama passed to heaven on July 31st, 1998. I have gone 20 years without seeing her smile, hearing her voice laugh, chat, and even scold at times. There is nothing in this world, to me at least, like the love of a mother. Except the love of the Father above! A mother carries her child within…
