Thankful Thursdays ~ October 25th

I must admit, some weeks are more challenging than others. Some days it is more challenging to find the joy in the yuck.

Thankful Thursdays ~ September 27th

    It feels really good to stop and count my blessings and just thank HIM for them all. I tweeted a question earlier today. "What are three  things that you are thankful for today?"    Then, I answered them. I couldn't stop at THREE. It felt really good to stop and thank my Jesus! …

It’s ALL About Love

    Well, it has taken me a bit longer to process these thoughts and truths that have been jumping around in my head.

Patience…a part of the fruit of the Spirit

Galatians 5:22-23 ~ But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.

A heart for Jesus..on the playground

 The playground at school can be fun..but for those that get left out or picked on, it can be a dreadful!

I am also hoping that …
