Welcome 

     I have to admit, friends, I love this time of year!  This morning as I was walking on my local trail breathing in that chilly air and watching leaves trickle down like rain, I thanked our Creator God for all this amazing, colorful beauty!  This same trail has been my sanity outlet throughout the 2020 pandemic and it continues to soothe my soul as life continues to throw curve balls.  I do hope and pray that each one of you get a chance to drink in this glorious beauty; have a cup of coffee or hot chocolate, sit by a fire pit, laugh with your loved ones or take a leisurely walk.  But most of all, dear friends, thank our Lord for his wonderful artistry and our ability to enjoy its fruits.
     This is also the month we bring our attention to Breast Cancer Awareness.  I simply can't believe that I was yet again diagnosed this past year with a reoccurrence of this disease.  I am so grateful that God has healed my body and set me on the Rock of His firm foundation to continue witnessing for Him.  Please, if you have the opportunity, give to this special cause that affects so many women and sometimes men.  The research has come a long way, but we need insurance companies to provide coverage for mammograms at earlier ages for young women.   Often they discover a diagnosis of breast cancer in later stages when it could have been caught much sooner.  
     Would you join me in prayer that this effort will materialize in the coming year?  Thank you!
                                                                       Happy Fall!

We can be better than this...
​

As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
                                                               Romans 3:10 (KJV)
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
                                                                 Romans 3:23
     These verses have been swirling in my mind during the past week and the course of recent events in our country.  I can’t possibly tell you how heartbroken I am as the country continues to tear one another apart over a difference of opinions and beliefs. 
     There are numerous concerns for our country during this year 2020.  I’m growing tired and weary as persons destroy property, scream, and yell using scare tactics to attain their end goal, while many of us wonder what exactly is their end goal? 

Needing Positivity

      I don't know about you, but I'm in need of a little positivity!  I'm so weary of people attacking one another over differing views; protesting that is damaging businesses and disgruntlement regarding our country.  What is a Christian to do?  
     Once again, I opened the Jesus Calling devotional, and began to read this morning.  I have heard the writings penned in this devotional seem to speak directly to your heart and mind when the world and your own personal situations appear out of control.  ​
