Blooming Where I'm Planted, While I Pray, Read, Write & Share

Author: Karran Martin

I am a happily retired mother of two adult children, a son-in-law and one grandson. I like to play table & computer games, read, write and do some traveling. Primarily, I just want to enjoy my life attempting to be all God created me to be.

Get Up And Go

Do you ever have a prompting to go and/or do something that you just don’t quite understand?  Maybe you rationalize, thinking it’s just your imagination?  But, what if it’s not?  What if God is trying to accomplish something for you, or through you for someone else?  On September 9th, my daily devotional spoke to me … Continue reading Get Up And Go →

No Luck Required

Becoming A Complete Woman (I apologize to my male readers, because the focus of today’s article is on women.  However, I hope you will enjoy reading it anyway.) One of the definitions of the word “luck” is:  the good or bad things that happen by chance.  Now I ask you this, do you really want … Continue reading No Luck Required →

Let Them Serve As Signs

(All scripture references are from the NIV) How does God intend for us to use the stars, sun and moon in our lives?  Will they be able to tell us that we should do this thing, not that thing?  Go here, go there?  Many believe so, consulting their horoscopes daily.  But we need to be … Continue reading Let Them Serve As Signs →

Just As Before

Daniel 6:4, 10-16, 25-27 (NIV) Daniel chapter 6 is one of my very favorites.  It tells us how King Darius set up 120 men to be officers in his kingdom, with three Governors over them – one of those Governors being Daniel.  Daniel did such an outstanding job that Darius was planning to set him … Continue reading Just As Before →

THIS Is Our Turning Point

Taming The Giants & Bringing Light Into The Darkness It’s so easy to put on our rose-colored glasses and stay in our own safe little corner of the world and believe that all is well.  But let’s face it - all is NOT well.  Our nation is a mess - the world is a mess. … Continue reading THIS Is Our Turning Point →

No Smell Of Fire

Recommended Reading:  Daniel 3:1-30  How willing are we to profess our faith and love in our heavenly Father?  How willing are we to stand out in a crowd and be different?  How much faith do we really have in God to protect and keep us in a serious time of need, if we will but … Continue reading No Smell Of Fire →

When Kings Go Off To War

The Importance of Our Decisions and Actions I read something a long time ago that said:  “People need to learn that their actions do affect other people.  So be careful what you say and do, it’s not always just about you..!” (Author Unknown)   One good example of this from the Bible is the story of … Continue reading When Kings Go Off To War →

Whenever

Psalm 78:34-37 (GNT):  “Whenever he killed some of them, the rest would turn to him; they would repent and pray earnestly to him.  They remembered that God was their protector, that the Almighty came to their aid.  But their words were all lies; nothing they said was sincere.  They were not loyal to him; they … Continue reading Whenever →

If Not You Then Who?

Recommended Reading - Esther (NIV) If you have read the book of Esther, you will likely recall how King Xeres threw a big party that lasted for 7 days.  Wine was flowing freely to everyone.  Queen Vashti also had a party for all the women.  On the 7th day, King Xeres called for Queen Vashti … Continue reading If Not You Then Who? →

Our Value

(All scripture references from the NIV) Do you ever have the experience where you are reading something that you know you have read many times before, then pause and have a “Wow!” moment?  As in – “Wow!  I have never noticed that before!”?  It actually happens to me a lot, which always rather amazes me … Continue reading Our Value →
