Today is the beginning of Lent. Jesus' journey into the wilderness. A journey he took willingly. Alone. For forty days. The bible is quiet on what happened during that time. One is left pondering what the Savior endured. We know his sustenance did not come from food. He feasted on time with God. He knew what was coming. His time; short. Death drew near. Yet he purposed on. He went to the wilderness so he could feast on the Goodness that awaited. When Jesus stepped out from the wilderness. The enemy Satan was right there to greet him. He gave him no time or warning. He was ... View Post
Friendship
She sent me this when the raw, clawed away at my soul. When the fog was thick and the missing of my son crippled my daily intake of breathing. She was my rock. Always there. Encouraging. Leading me to the cross. She made music where there was chaos. And now it's been a year since she has danced on the streets of gold. And I miss her. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I Say In A Whisper, I'll See You Soon, Because It's Not Really Good Bye February 8, 2015 See you soon I ...

Just Before Dawn
Psalm 28:7 The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him. The dark still lingers. Coffee perked. The morning sounds beginning. My farmer and girls; still milking. The pause before the day begins. One of my favorite times of day. It is the time I feel most in tune with my Savior. The time when my heart is full. When I feel strong. It is after my feet have touched the floor. The moments where my soul has been refreshed in ... View Post
Until it Was Gone
Fear just up and left. I am not kidding. I have felt it living in my bones. Crippling me at times. Needing to grasp and hold on tightly. The moment one of the kids gets into the car. When they are gone for long periods of time. When they want to go to a friends. The constant need for a call; to be in touch. To hear their voice. Secretly wanting them all in the house. In their rooms. Going no where. It has paralyzed me. And I didn't even know it. Looking back, it began the ... View Post
Two and half years of Missing, Two and a Half Years of Much Grace
Two and a half years. The beautiful words of remembrance, faded away. Time passing. Life moving forward. Memories; a gift. The Lord's sweet provision. A gift to be treasured. A legacy of photo's. God made sure there were pieces to hold on to. A heart full of memories. I still don't like this plan. My whole being longs for a different path. But that is not to be. So, with my whole heart I will praise the One who calls me by ... View Post
Our Perspective is Everything
I wake to a head ache. The dull, throbbing kind. It's time for milking. My farmer brings me an Advil. I fall back to sleep. When I wake again it is to moon beams streaming into the room. I glance out the window. The view breath taking. The moon; full, bright. Illuminating. I lay there for a moment. Those first few moments of waking are always difficult. I purposefully change my thoughts. 2 Corinthians 10:5 We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the ... View Post
