Are you still in pilgrim mode? I pray that you are still walking with me on this journey towards “your sacred place.” Were you able to walk the labyrinth last week in contemplation? If not, there is always time to make a commitment to walk with God. Remember, our journey is not… Continue reading Litany (of thanks)

Why follow From God's Lips?
In our busy world, our soul desires quiet time with God. His desire is that we spend time with him, focusing only our building our relationship with him. He wants to hear our words speaking to Him - our needs, concerns and definitely remembering to give Him thanks for everything - both in joy and sorrow. God is calling you to spend time with him through the positive words He has placed in my heart. I hope you will, along with me, share and grow in His love.
Pilgrim
Do you remember the definition of Pilgrim? Just a reminder – “a person who journeys to a sacred place for religious reasons.” Can you imagine the necessary planning the pilgrims of long ago must have done, preparing for the long journey to a new and unfamiliar land? Their goal was… Continue reading Pilgrim
Pilgrims
Giving thanks during this upcoming month is our traditional focus; and it’s pretty much assumed that we will all experience the visual of that perfect Thanksgiving meal that includes that golden, juicy roasted turkey, stuffing, apple pie and all the trimmings! I can even smell those familiar aromas escaping from our kitchen. Every year we… Continue reading Pilgrims
Sparkle
How many things can you think of that sparkle? It may be the sequins neatly sewn on your daughter’s princess Halloween costume or maybe it’s the sparkle you see in the eyes of someone that loves you.

However, I will add that my husband and I can recall wonderful stories about all our camping adventures. One such… Continue reading Fresh
Umbilical
I would like to give credit for progress on my spiritual journey to a group of special women in Maryland. Our local church started a program that set up small, more intimate prayer group meetings in individual homes. I first took the leap to join one that was in close proximity to my home. As… Continue reading Umbilical
Desire
We all have desires, right? Other words we use to describe desire are our hopes, dreams, longings, needs, and even fancy. When we bring those desires before God, what does He hear? When my desires are so great that it consumes me, what is He thinking about my requests? We’re thinking “If only you will… Continue reading Desire
Amazing
The first visual I picture in my mind is fireworks. I love fireworks! Even as a child I can recall going to the 4th of July parade in our small town, watching the stream of local marching bands, fire trucks and other entertainment stroll down Main Street. Then, once the sun went down, we were… Continue reading Amazing
Constant
What is ever-constant in our lives? What never changes? What love lasts forever? My mind is filled with these questions, trying to focus on what He wants to say. I smile, as I remember that our 48th wedding anniversary is this week. Constant – not always perfect, but perfect for us. We were high school… Continue reading Constant
