After spending a few weeks at my brothers I have discovered that children are more than addicted to Wii. I don’t mean just my children either. My three year old nephew could not tear himself away from that thing. He spends his time playing Cars games and Monster Jam 4×4, which he calls Monster Jam…
At Home
Beacuse God Said So
Have you ever given the answer “Because God Said so” to your children. I know I have. It’s the got to answer for everything when nothing else will satisfy their little minds. Well I watched my sister in-law give that very answer recently and thought to myself “What I would give to accept that again.”…
How Do You Know?
How do you know that your husband loves you? Is it something he says or does? As a wife putting her marriage back together I often wonder. He says he loves me and I feel it at times. There are other times when I’m not so sure. There are moments when I am two hundred…
Waiting….Waiting…..
I spend so much time waiting anymore. I wait for my husband to call me when he’s out of town. He never calls me enough and then I usual spend every second after a conversation with him anymore trying to decide what he meant. For example on Saturday when we had a conversation he called…

No Signal
That’s how I feel it’s been with God lately. It’s like there’s no signal. You know how it is when you’re on your cell and you loose your signal. It seems like for every good thing there is five horrible things. Maybe our wires have crossed somewhere. Maybe God just forgot to check his voicemail….
What Everyone Wants to Hear
“You have stolen my heart, my sister, my bride, you have stolen my heart with one glance of your eyes, with one jewel of your necklace.” Song of Songs 4:9 That is what every wife wants to hear. I will never forget the night Edgar told me his heart beat for me. I thought wow!…
Unsaid Words
Too many times we don’t say what we mean. Harsh words said in anger cut the deepest. A few weeks ago I was so certain my marriage was over. Last night Edgar came home. While we didn’t make promises beyond a day. We made an attempt. Yesterday was our anniversary. He said he forgot but…
A Thread of Faith
Remember the story from the old testament about the woman who was told to hang a red string or ribbon in her window and her family would be spared? She did and they lived. We are taught that is all the faith we need. A single thread. Well my thread is raggedy and about the…
