Here are some more blessings God sent our way this week. 1. My friend Joy took James and I out to eat when she visited last weekend. 2. Lee needed a new tire to replace a very bad tire on his car. He asked his father if he had any tires laying around. My father [...]
When my family was all here, (boo hoo by the way! I miss them all.) we were discussing our jobs. I think my dear brother was emphasizing his job as the most important. He does have a great job and takes providing for his wife quite seriously! He outlined what each of us did and [...]
Yesterday, James and I planted the garden. We just have a small space so it didn’t take too long. We planted lettuce, onions, green beans, and a tomato as well as basil and mint in a different area. We also have an accidental pumpkin. I found it rotting in the leaves and sprouting so I [...]
Lately the Lord has been working in my heart to find more ways to give. Because I’m the only one making any income around here, often my mind swarms with ways to make money. Or I’m working on online listings or finding things to sell. It can get rather overwhelming. If I’m not thinking about [...]
I was thinking that I should really go to bed! It’s far past my bed time, but I wanted to post this and share my blessings before I go to bed. Here are a few of my blessings from the past week. 1. One of the men from church came over on Saturday to check [...]

Last week, I updated you all on how I’m doing in this post. I wrote that after an afternoon on the couch asking God to give me wisdom and show me what to do. I had a big lump of stress in my middle. I told the Lord that these burdens do not feel light [...]
How’s that for a title (hee hee!) When I was a teenager, my mother had me clean and organize the spice cupboard. I found an old tin of white mustard that we NEVER used. (It didn’t quite look like this tin, but you get the idea.) I had a pile of things to toss out [...]
Have you had any blessings since our last Works of God Weekend? We’ve had quite a few! *I found a new winter coat for James for less than $10. My sister and her husband spoiled us ROTTEN while they were here. It was a huge blessing to have the adult help with the car, snow, [...]
I am in charge of our church library. Since it was very much in need of an update, I’ve been weeding out very old books and replacing them with the boxes of donated newer books. One of the books had a familiar title so I quickly peeked through it. The Sword Book of Treasures by [...]
