It is my heart’s desire to dive into the deep secrets of God. When His Spirit breathes on the word and makes it come alive I, too, am breathed upon and I, too, come alive. Those moments the logos word (written word) becomes the rhema word (living word) in my life are the moments that stir … Continue reading The Deep Secrets of God
My favorite place to study the bible online is at http://www.blueletterbible.com. I went there today and read the daily scripture reading. “A bruised reed He will not break.” There was a devotional that followed that referenced the scripture from Isaiah that Jesus read in the synagogue from Isaiah 61. “The Spirit of the Lord is … Continue reading God Speaks Even Through Sandy Baths
This last week I have been thinking about the rainbow. But not for the reasons why my Facebook newsfeed is filled with them. This post isn’t about that. I’ve been thinking about rainbows; particularly the one that surrounds the throne of God. Revelation 4:3 And he who sat there had the appearance of jasper … Continue reading Mercy

We bought this old house about 3 years ago. When we were looking for homes to buy with our real estate, I requested that this one be the first of the day since we probably wouldn’t like it judging from the pictures. Everything was BLUE. The carpet was blue, the walls were blue, the … Continue reading House Projects-a $20 Kitchen Backsplash
In our house we have a special fork. Yes, you read that right, a special fork. What could cause a fork to be so special? My kids found it outside in the ground and cleaned it up. I’m not even kidding. And yes, we even use it. They found it while looking for buried treasure … Continue reading The Special Fork
We have the greatest neighbors in the whole world. All of them are fantastic, they really are. Since we have lived here our neighbors have been friendly and welcoming.

Good morning! I’m taking my youngest to the Ear Nose and Throat Doctor today. It’s our first appointment and I admit I’m a little nervous. I’m not really sure why, I guess I just don’t know what to expect. My little guy was diagnosed with Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS for short) this past fall. … Continue reading Childhood Apraxia of Speech
