How many times have I told myself that over the years? “Get behind me Satan!” It has been too many for me to count. Satan. The master deceiver. The author of confusion. The one who hates God and His children. The one who wants to destroy homes, churches and testimonies. The one who whispers in … Continue reading Get Behind Me Satan

Singleness In Christ
“Our language has wisely sensed the two sides of man being alone. It has created the word loneliness to express the pain of being alone. And it has created the word solitude to express the glory of being alone.” Paul Tillich When you think of a person who is single, you automatically think that person … Continue reading Singleness In Christ
You Can Trust God
Trust! What a word! Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines trust as "assured reliance on the character, ability, strength or truth of someone or something." I find that it is hard for me to trust. Part of it is my nature. I am analytical and tend to try dig beyond the surface. I am afraid there is something … Continue reading You Can Trust God
Wasted Years
May 20th is a special day for me. It is the day I graduated from my Christian high school with nineteen other seniors. Yesterday was the 34th anniversary of my graduation. So last evening I watched the video of that special night. That was so much fun. I had forgotten the different things we did … Continue reading Wasted Years
Satan attacks but God encourages
Next week is our teen ladies’ conference. I can’t believe it is almost here. What a journey I have been on since January 14 when the Lord and I had the battle, and He won. Since that time, there have been many ups and downs. Satan has been fighting this conference and what I am … Continue reading Satan attacks but God encourages

Once again, I am celebrating (or not celebrating) a holiday meant for couples. Sometimes it bothers me when I think of what I don’t have. … Continue reading My Greatest Valentine
When God Wins
After a long drought of words, I am back. LOL. I apologize for such a long spell between posts. December was such a busy time with work, coaching cheerleading, end of year projects at work, Christmas shopping, and sickness. On top of that, my brain was so overloaded that I didn’t have words. I asked … Continue reading When God Wins
How will you be remembered?
Yesterday I watched President George H.W. Bush's funeral in Washington D.C. It was very moving to hear what everyone had to say about him. He was called a patriot, one who loved and sacrificed for his country. He was called humble. They said he loved a good joke. His son, George W. Bush, said that … Continue reading How will you be remembered?
Hold on to your Trust
Have you ever thought of how sin starts in your life? I believe it starts in the mind. "But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death."(James 1:14-15). You think … Continue reading Hold on to your Trust
Thanks
Happy Thanksgiving, boys and girls! Landon and I are so excited that it is Thanksgiving. We love this holiday. Don't we? "Oh yes, Lizzie! We do. The food, parades and time with family. It is so wonderful." "You are so right. I wonder why Thanksgiving is skipped over sometimes. You know the Christmas songs are … Continue reading Thanks
