A path can look like any stretch we choose to walk/follow. Some are straight, wide, and ambling roadways; others are crooked, narrow, and practically vertical! Each will lead us somewhere but the amount of strength and perseverance will vary greatly. What does your path look like? The one less traveled with thorns, brush, and difficult navigation could very well be the one God has called you to travel! Father God, walk this path with me, catch me when I ustumble or fall. Heal the brokenness in me. For all who read these words please pour out blessings. Amen Sandra…

I am sure you have heard the expression, “that’s ugly”, but have you ever really stopped and thought about those words? I shy away from calling a person ugly, beauty is defined very differently from person to person; but actions can be very ugly. Today I experienced ugly! During my shift at work a woman came to pick up her prescription and became so angry and hostile because her insurance wouldn’t cover it, she was too early in refilling, and she didn’t want to pay anything out of pocket. She yelled, accused…

As I previously shared, my first marriage was a “train wreck about to happen” due to both of our childhoods. I didn’t trust men and he didn’t trust women. Plus, he was twice divorced which should have been my clue but I was too naive and stubborn. I was so determined to be the ‘perfect’ wife I completely lost me in the mix. I tried to keep him happy, doing for him, and all the while I forgot about me. At the same time that I was trying so hard-he was…

Several years ago a friend shared some irises with me and I planted them in my yard. They didn’t bloom until this year. Timing is very interesting and it is all God’s. Why do things happen when they do? Why do we have to wait for so many things in life? I can’t answer those, but I know God has this and is taking care of all things. People and illness, heartache, sin, and broken lives. Please join me in praying for all who suffer. Thank you Lord, may the lost be found, the…

Then we are heirs-heirs of God. Romans 8:17 Heirs-one who inherits or is entitled to inherit property So, currently you cannot turn on the news, go to Google, or almost any social media, without seeing or hearing something about the royals and the upcoming wedding or the impending birth of the new prince or princess due this spring. We all know something about this royal family; a queen, her husband, the prince who is the ‘first in line’ for the throne, grandsons, great-grandchildren, more greats to come. so on and so forth. We hear…

For God so loved the world…. John 3:16 God has blessed us with beauty all around. I had the privilege to sit and enjoy some peace at a local garden center plus fellowship with some wonderful women! God has blessed us greatly with beauty in flowers and friends! Thank you Lord for hearing our prayers and providing guidance for what we need…

Deut. 28:1-2 If you fully obey The Lord your God, and follow all of His commands I give you today, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth. All these blessings will come upon you, and accompany you, if you obey The Lord your God. MY GOD HAS SUCH A SENSE OF HUMOR! If anyone told me a few years ago, that I would be building a Devotional Blog entitled ”Entrusted Wisdom,” I would have laughed in their face. When a General gives you a command, the only answer you can…

Philippians 4:6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with prayer and thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. In my youth, my pursuit was faith, family and pursuing my education. As a young bride, my pursuit was faith, family, marriage, and motherhood. Rebuilding my life became a fearless pursuit: Pursuing God’s wisdom, courage and going back to school. In middle age, I was not only a classroom teacher, but ministered to many, as God ordered At 68, my fearless pursuit is faith, family, and this amazing journey through which he has…

Isaiah 6:2 For Zion’s sake, I will not keep silent. For Jerusalem’s sake, I will not be quiet. You will be called by a new name that the mouth of the Lord will bestow. You will be a crown of splendor in the Lord’s hand. WELL….HERE I AM…I WRITE AS HE INSPIRES. It’s not about me. The old Sue couldn’t have done this in a million years. Ten years ago, if you told me I’d be doing this, I’d tell you that your elevator didn’t go to the top…

For god so loved the world…John 3:16 We hear this verse a lot but it is usually in regard to the gift of Christ, which is awesome, but it is also awesome to remember God  gave because he loves us so much!! Dear Lord , remind us daily how much you love us. Let me share that love with those I meet, work with, and live with. Amen Sandra Sanders, boundless trust…

    PS.91:11-12 For He will give His angels charge over you, to accompany, defend, and preserve you in all your ways. They shall bear you up on their hands, lest you dash your foot against a stone.   LOLOL! I can be a real klutz at times. I’ve slipped off the ladder a few times while painting. I’ve tripped over painting paraphernalia on occasion. So it was no surprise, that a month ago, I said the following prayer as I finished painting the bedroom: Lord, surround me with your Guardian Angels today. Please keep…

  Saint Mother Teresa: She is a role model for all who proclaim to be a Christian. Each of us has said at one point in our lives, “I could never make a difference…..not that big! “ Well friends, she didn’t do big things. She began by bringing in the homeless and the dying in India.  It grew from there. We all have done many little things. I saw my husband become Jesus this morning. It was only for one minute, if that. We were at the doc for his hearing aids this morning. A sweet little Afro-American…
