Praise
I have been silent for longer than I intended. Words, so many words have tumbled through my mind like clothes in a dryer. Too many words have remained stuck inside. Pain deep in my gut for people I love; my friends, my family and my country. At times even pain over things within myself has […]

There is a statement I keep saying this year, “He clothes me better than the lilies.” This is a significant statement about how I trust the Lord. He has always provided for our needs plus some. It has been our priority to take care of our daughter first. We pay hundreds a month for her […]
