In this podcast I ramble on a bit about the wrong thinking I picked up from "The Blessed Life", not that the teaching is wrong, just that I learned the wrong thing from it.

Are you sick of living month to month?  Go on a journey with me as I share about our life and the time we were begging for peanut butter and jelly just to be able to feed the kids and see how magnificently God provided when I finally asked for help. Let's look at Exodus 16:16 when God fed the children of Israel manna day by day...not too much...not too little....just enough for each family. 8...

Here the LORD taught me through Proverbs 14:4:  "Where no oxen are, the trough is clean; but much increase comes by the strength of an ox."  In other words, you may have worked hard to free your life of other people's messes, but now you might be lonely because people & mess are a package deal.

June 27, 2025 - Just a recounting of my morning with Jesus. 1:00 - While praying for my friend who isn't making good decisions, the Lord reminds me of His love for her and corrects my thinking. 3:50 - Get your unbelief out of My way. 7:00 - Hold the line 7:10 - While praying for a different friend who is a nonbeliever, God shows me how He sees them - crusty starfish and spiritual DNA. 11:22 -...

This morning the Lord surprised me by putting His finger on an unknown reason why I'm not seeking a church at this time.  I was surprised to say the least.  But through a couple dreams, and then talking it out with Him, I came to realize there are a few reasons there that I wasn't consciously aware of.  We worked through the deep issue, which was "They didn't love me there.&quo...

My husband and I have a son with Down syndrome.  He's 18 now so I'm reminiscing about all the things we did to make it through the years.  This one is the Post-It Note calendar I came up with to help him see time going by and counting down to holidays that were important to him.  I hope this helps someone.

We're Christians, right?  We sin, right?  But someone else's sin is bigger or more serious than mine.  And it's my job to point that out, right?  Or, don't point it out and just love them?  How do I handle that?  What did Jesus do?  This morning Jesus and I talked about how I can best help someone I love who is in sin.  This may ruffle some feathers because it ruffled mine.  Bu...

Today in my quiet time I read Exodus chapter 1, and God pointed out two kinds of fear.  One that leads us down the path to destruction and one that leads to blessing.  Before this, I had never noticed this in this chapter before.  God bless you.
