“May the Lord, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to take refuge, reward you fully for what you have done.” ~Ruth 2:12

This post is dedicated to all who have supported me on my journey which started out as a conversation and simple sharing of my thoughts and ideas.  I have been writing my thoughts and feelings on paper and electronic devices for many years and the practice has served me well.  I didn’t realize my words could be used to help others and share my faith until a dear friend explained blogging to me.  It has been a learning experience since the beginning and continues to be.  God has blessed me far beyond any of my expectations.  It has been sheer joy to see so many people read my blog, I am humbled at the places my page has been viewed around the globe.  Only through the power of Jesus has that even been possible.  I strive to be authentic and transparent as possible when sharing my thoughts.  This journey is entirely in God’s hands, I truly am blessed to be able to share not simply my thoughts but to share the love of Jesus.  

“I thank my God in all my remembrance of you.” ~Philippians 1:3

This entry is completely for anyone who has ever read one of my posts and felt the love of Jesus.  I simply want to say thank you and to share some of the amazing statistics with you and a couple of songs.

Hello!  I have missed writing and experiencing God the way I did during Lent.  I took some time away from writing but honestly I’ve missed it.  I hope everyone reading this is fully aware of the wonderful fact that “You are loved by God!”  You are His Beloved!

I am excited to share with you that I have decided to start posting videos and pictures on YouTube!  It will be a slow process I’m sure because I am still trying to figure it all out.  I find all my videos that I post on YouTube and there’s just so much stuff to choose from.  Today I had the pleasure of enjoying a beautiful Spring day!  I went for a drive in the county and took pictures of things that sought my attention.  Photography is just a hobby, but it bring me pure joy.  I always feel closer to God when I’m outside taking nature in through all my senses.  All the seasons have distinct smells and the air feels different throughout the year.  Often when taking pictures I have moments of clarity where Bible verses or bible passages speak to me through the visual display of God’s majestic landscapes.

In the coming weeks and months I am going to be guiding and participating in a Bible study of the Book of Esther and I hope to share them with you in this space.

I was speaking with a friend today and I shared my thoughts of missing my connection I felt with you and with God in very intentional ways during Lent.  My Lenten journey that I shared with you exceeded all my expectations.  I felt more connected  with God and with each of you, I am extremely thankful for your support and prayers as I move to be more fully, the person God created me to be.  I also what each of you to recognize how incredible you are and I wish to share in your journey as well.  We are all God’s children, we are not all alike and that’s okay!  We can be different and respectful at the same time.  Something tells me that God intended for us to be different and to work together in spite of differences; after all, as believers we will be spending eternity together 😀.  Every minute of every day, each one of us faces difficulties and challenges: victory is in facing them BOLDLY with God by our side.  Be the BEST you can be and be proud of that and trust in God’s plan for your life.  Sure there will be tough days but there will be great days as well.  If we never experience the rough and tough days, how would we ever appreciate the good and wonderful days(?).  God promises to always be with us, no matter how bad we think things are…that kind of guarantee has no comparison or competition!  “And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” -Matthew 28:20 https://www.biblegateway.com/passage?search=Matthew%2028:20&version=ESV
