Plain and simple.

Got this in an e-mail today and need to remember it...sometimes the more simple the message, the more impact it makes.





"God makes a promise, faith believes it, hope anticipates it, patience quietly awaits it." ~ Unknown



Lord knows, the patience is my downfall.



Thank you Lord for not giving up on me, even when my patience gives out before You act. You aren't the problem, I am. Get me out of my way and out of Your way today and do what You need to do with my… Continue

God is worthy.

Well...it's another "one of those days." I struggle to do what is right. I fall short. I miss the mark...the mark I had set for myself. I promised I'd show love, be patient...have compassion. I tried to climb the mountain in front of me, the impossibly steep rocky cliff of life's circumstances, of my own strength. I expected to be able to do it, without a stumble.

Archaeologist, Dieter Noli, who is studying some fragments of the ship as well, noted that evidence of lead patching strips show the ship was old when it went down. The wood that the ship was constructed of was worm eaten and weakened and as well. Because of the poor… Continue

Kept Women...

I got this in an e-mail today, it really gave me a boost...a nice way to start my day...







Are you a Kept woman?



You see, there were a few times when I thought I would lose my mind,

but GOD kept me sane. (Isa. 26:3)



There were times when I thought I could go no longer,

but the LORD kept me moving. (Gen 28:15)



At times, I've wanted to lash out at those whom I felt had done me wrong,

but the LORD kept my mouth shut. (Psa.… Continue
