First Bloom
Emptying trash I noticed my forsythia (yellow bell) was blooming. It was around 46 degrees and there was no sun. But the rain from day before and little sunshine caused the bush to put forth its yellow buds. After a harsh winter, it was so good to see new life. I then looked at my…

The Rest of the Glory Story
Exhausted from unpacking, the glow of the security light seemed to say, “it’s gonna be alright. You are home!” It was July 2005 and we were partially moved in. Each night for sixteen years I would think,” thank you Lord for my house.” Then getting into bed I’d tell my husband, “Did I ever tell…

Hope
Psalm 147:11 The Lord delights in those who fear him, who put their hope in his unfailing love. Hope I can lose 10 lbs. before the wedding. Hope the diagnosis is good. Hope I don’t get Covid-19 (too late already had it). Hope this virus will go away!! Hope Jesus will return soon! Hope I…

Which Season Are You In?
One of my hobbies is color analysis. I enjoy the process of helping someone discover what colors are best for them to wear. Each person can be categorized in one of the seasons of the year – fall, winter, spring or summer. It is amazing to see how one’s hair color, eye color, eye pattern,…

Dogwood Winter
I failed to take the hint. Admiring the Dogwood blossoms on my way to church made me think they were a bit early. Don’t they usually bloom at Easter time? Easter is almost two weeks away. However, not having John’s folks to remind me I just admired the dogwoods and that was it. It snowed on…
