Lost But Not Forgotten

Lost But Not Forgotten Many years ago God put a desire into my heart to write encouraging stories which spoke of His loving-kindness so that others would want to experience His goodness. At first, I believed the dream was from Him because it glorified God and I could feel an agreement of my desires by the leading of the precious Holy Spirit. But I was too new in my walk with God to have absolute certainty that he was speaking to me. I guess now when I look back on it, since I have a popular blog, written two books, and have almost finished with writing book one of my fantasy series, I am sure it was Him. My story reminds me of the story of Joseph in the Bible; he had a dream. Genesis 37:5-8 “And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it his brethren: and they hated him unto them, Hear, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed: For, behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, behold, your sheaves stood round about, a...

When God Seems Distant

When God Seems Distant Did you know God loves you even when you are not perfect, lost, lonely, fearful, or sad?

He is waiting for us to reach out to Him for help in times of need. One thing I have learned over the years, from my own experience, is that we must always trust that he knows our situation. He is there for protection when we are fearful, provides wisdom when we need guidance, and love and companionship when we are lonely. One of my favorite scriptures reminds me of His promises: Psalms 23:1-3 (KJV) The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2  He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 3  He restoreth my soul: I gain peace within myself through reading His words in the Bible. The words become alive as I read, offering me comfort and companionship as I immerse myself into i...

Garden of Life

This year my garden was not as spectacular as it was in the prior years because we moved just before the summer and did not have time to prepare the ground. However, I am reminded of my gardens in prior years which were filled with lovely dahlias, beautiful clematis’s, spectacular salvia, gorgeous corn-flowers, vibrant lobelias, and hanging baskets jam-packed with dazzling colorful flowering plants. And of course, I cannot forget the many vegetables I grew; large plump tomatoes, tasty zucchini, cucumber, onion, chives, lettuce, potatoes, spicy red and jalapeno peppers which were just a few of the many types. I had such a choice of delicious vegetables to choose from, sometimes I found it difficult to decide as to what  I wanted to do with them or how to prepare the delicious veggie. Would I include it in a delightful garden salad, or perhaps barbeque skewers of tomatoes, zucchini or cucumber on the grille? With the flowers in my gardens, I always filled vases with them and mad...
