His Eyes Set Free

His Eyes Set Free

I can imagine all of Heaven rejoicing when a miracle happens on earth. Miracles are happening every day- even in our family this week! We have another story (the Word of our testimony, Rev. 12:11) of God’s healing taking place. When my oldest daughter, Basye, was one year old she got her first pair of glasses. For the previous 18 months she had been wearing a helmet for 23 hours a day. The day after she was cleared from wearing…

Today Was The Day

Today Was The Day

(For the full scope of this story, first check out my previous post, “Last Day”.) A couple months ago, my older brother and one of my nephews stopped by our house for a few hours. They had been visiting my parents in PA, and were making their way back home to NC. They brought a bunch of stuff with them, including a large bag my Mom had sent containing special items she had saved for me (and my kids) from…

Last Day

Last Day

“Where is my Starbucks Iowa coffee mug? I’ve used it every morning for the last 4 months, without fail. I don’t want to drink my coffee in anything else. It’s probably dirty, and in the dishwasher. I need to tell Chuck not to put my Iowa mug in the dishwasher. Oh, the dishwasher is clean. There it is.” This morning I mindlessly filled up my Starbucks Iowa coffee mug, added my Silk Mocha Almond Creamer (that sounds so extra!) and…

S’mores for the Lord

S’mores for the Lord

Recently I read an encouraging Word from Nate Johnston. In it he mentioned, “So set the table by faith.” I kept thinking about it, and pondering what the Lord might be saying. The next day, our whole family trooped into Costco. I saw a big pack of popsicles, and snatched them up right away. I knew it was God’s idea for us to keep popsicles in the freezer so anytime we have kids in the backyard, we have a fun…

RV Dream

RV Dream

Do you ever have a seemingly silly dream? Years ago our kids started talking about RV campers. The kind where they could “run around while Papa drives”. One of my favorite shows of all time is Frasier. There are a couple episodes where Martin- the Dad of the main character, Frasier, gets a Winnebago. He calls it the Road Warrior= RDWRER on the license plate. That show makes me laugh out loud so hard! Anybody else? Recently our dear friends…

He Won’t Fail

He Won’t Fail

“Jesus saves my life every day.” I have spoken this statement to family or friends on more than one occasion these past 9 months. Compassion for the weak, the wounded, and the hurting has grown in my spirit. People deal with their pain and heartache in vastly different ways. There is no right or wrong way to grieve and walk in pain. Sometimes grief and pain leads us to toxic patterns or debilitating addictions. It makes sense to me why…

County Fair

County Fair

Last night we visited our local county fair. It’s a pretty big deal around here. Our first summer in the area, we were invited to the fair by a local “Big Wig”. Chuck had been working at Lowes, and met this generous man who treated our whole family to the fair. We were spoiled forever by that experience because the kids got to ride on as many rides as they wanted, as many times as they wanted! It was really special….

The Mountains

The Mountains

“The mountains and hills will burst into song before you!” (Yes, Isaiah 55:12 again!) This morning I sat in my usual spot at our dining room table. You know the spot- it looks out at my favorite tree. Well, today I was compelled to move just one seat over. The perspective was completely different. This view still includes my tree, but also has the added benefit of the glorious mountains in the distance. There is a perfect break in our…

Tree

Tree

This morning God brought one of my favorite backyard trees to my spirit’s attention. He shared with me how before my big, beautiful tree was even a little seedling, He had me in mind. As this big tree has developed over the last forty years, He always knew it was for me. He created it just to delight me. As I delight in the tree He delights in me, and I delight in Him. As I was thinking about all the…
