Welcome to my home. My Christmas decor is simple – there are no lights outside, no blow-up characters in the yard, but it’s Christmas-y enough for me. Come inside and take a look around! Continue reading “Christmas Decor 2019”
Help For Your Scurrying and Worrying
It’s the week before Christmas and I wonder if you’re saying things like…
How am I going to get it all done?

One afternoon I went to town to run a couple of errands. One intersection that I had to cross is always bottle necked. When the light is green, the cars have to be ready to move because the light changes again very quickly, and if you don’t catch it, then you’ll have to sit for a while.
I was about the third car at the light and the light was green, but the first car just sat Continue reading “When God Doesn’t Answer Our Prayer”
