I pray that you had a blessed and holy Easter! In addition to celebrating the Easter season until Pentecost, we are also coming alive with our Springtime season. One of the more anticipated seasons, not just because Jesus has risen and is alive; but because creation is waking up all around us. The days are… Continue reading Seasons

We use so many familiar words or phrases to describe this most Holy Day as Christians. In celebration of this special day, we're full of joy and are likely to greet each other with a “Hallelujah”, “He is risen”, or “He lives”, all trying our best to express the importance of what took place over… Continue reading Real
Journey
It’s been a journey these past weeks leading up to Easter Day. And I can’t believe we’ve celebrated with shouts of Hosannas on Palm Sunday already. What have you learned on your journey to the Cross with Jesus this Lent? Have you spent time with Him in the Garden, or have there been times you’ve… Continue reading Journey
Olive (tree)
Excuse me for escaping out of the box with using two words this week. But because I am reading “Under the Olive Tree” this Lent with my two friends, I decided to purchase from Amazon three olive tree seedlings to help us focus both our hearts and minds on Jesus in His Garden. I’m smiling… Continue reading Olive (tree)
Vision
During your Lenten journey with me, in our desire to be closer to Jesus in his hour of agony, He makes a small request to stay awake with him. It’s a request He’s also making to you and me. “Don’t fall asleep. Stay with me and pray.” In the garden, did the disciples yet fully… Continue reading Vision
Peacemaker
“Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called children of God.” I pray you are still walking with me on the way to the Cross during this Lent. Our journey is not a celebration until that stone is rolled from the tomb and our Jesus has risen – for us and for our sins. … Continue reading Peacemaker
Rock
My husband purchased a Rock Tumbler machine as a gift for me this past Christmas. Since I’ve been in a crafty sort of phase, I knew I had to have one of these. The rock tumbler set comes with an electric base, and a container where you place your rocks, shells and even broken pieces… Continue reading Rock
Lent
What is the purpose of Lent? I have to admit I’ve struggled with it a little bit each year, praying mountains will move and maybe an epiphany of sorts when it comes to my journey with Jesus. Many times, I think of this time of preparation to being focused on my individual sacrifices that I’ve… Continue reading Lent
Steps
I remember the first time my husband and I decided, in an attempt to save money, to lay the flooring in our last home. When anyone attempts to begin a similar undertaking, we all know how important it is to just follow all the steps. You don’t get to a quality finished project by passing… Continue reading Steps
Wait
What are you waiting for? Doesn’t it seem like we’re always waiting for something to happen? I look back over a good portion of my life and I most likely would fill hundreds of pages during the different stages of what I was hoping for, praying for, and many times desperately praying. And here I… Continue reading Wait
