It was 6 years ago today that I started my journey into blogdom (is that a real word?) and published my very first weekly article.  I never imagined that this journey would’ve continued this long.  In honor of this anniversary, I’m presenting that first article here today with a few edits and some additions:  I … Continue reading Scarred For Life →

This week, I will not be sharing an entire article that is original to me.  I have MANY concerns for our nation & the world at large, so the upcoming elections are foremost in my mind - and honestly, have been for many months - as I’m sure you surmised from my article a couple … Continue reading If Jesus Were King →

I‘ve recently been reading the book of Ezra.  If you don’t know much about Ezra, here are a few details about him I found:  “Though Ezra is not one of the more widely known figures in the Bible, he played a vital role in the spiritual health of the Jewish people.

Psalm 106 is such a … Continue reading Critical Intervention →

Hebrews 11:3a (CEV):  “Because of our faith, … Continue reading Words Are Powerful →

Last week when I posted “Mrs. Job - Revisited”, I mentioned that my daily Bible study had had me in the book of Job for a few days.  As I continued on in that study for yet a few more days, I noticed things that I had highlighted & notes I’d made in the margins … Continue reading With Friends Like That →

I’m going to have an article repeat this week.  I once again have reached the book of Job in my daily reading & I started thinking about the article I wrote last year about this time when reading this book.  I just felt compelled to revisit it.  So with a couple of minor revisions, here … Continue reading Mrs. Job – Revisited →

Recommended Reading:  Luke 4:1-13 I believe anyone that knows there is a God - a God that created all that we are, all that we see and experience - surely also knows that we have an enemy in this world. That enemy seeks to destroy us as believers.  “Be careful—watch out for attacks from Satan, … Continue reading Fighting Off Enemy Attacks →
