I love sunset photos. This was taken in Poriya, Israel where there were beautiful sunrises and sunsets. I was so blessed to go there and look forward to returning. Now onto what I’ve been reading. On Deadly Grounds by Kaye D. Schmitz was a delight to read. I met Kaye a few years ago on a cruise and loved her …
The Excuses People Give…
This photo was taken back in 2019 from the deck of our ship as we sailed to Georgetown. I love sunsets and I thought the verse from Romans worked so well with it. Last week was exciting as Standoff released. I did several video interviews that you can see here, where I’m reading the prologue for Family Fiction, and here where …
What I’m Reading Friday ~ The Key to Everything
I have to tell you, The Key to Everything, a Novel by Valerie Fraser Luesse is a delight to read. It’s a book you won’t want to put down and the story will stay with you for days. I met Valerie at the Public Library Association Conference back in January and picked up a copy of the book while I was there. …
This Week’s Mystery Question & it’s Release Day for Standoff!
Joshua 1:9 has long been a favorite verse of mine. Can you imagine how the children of Israel felt after Moses died and they were about to cross the Jordan River into unknown territory? Can you imagine how Joshua felt? While we’re not in the same place the Israelites were, we are in uncharted territory, and this is a verse …
WHAT I’M READING FRIDAY ~ LAST CALL
Last Friday night I as I checked my email, I noticed I had a message from Patreon. That’s where I go to make sure I don’t miss anything from James Scott Bell. He’d posted an encouraging video, and at ten o’clock at night, I was in need of a little encouragement. Nothing had gone exactly as I planned it Friday, …
THIS WEEK’S MYSTERY QUESTION
This is another of my favorite scripture passages and on I depend on daily. It’s been an interesting week and I did finally get something written on the new book. One paragraph. 🙂 But, it is a very important paragraph because now I know how I’ll open the story! Once I get a little more added to it, I’ll share …
WHAT I’M READING FRIDAY ~ FREEZING POINT
I read this verse earlier tonight before I worked on this post and it really spoke to me. David wrote it when he was fleeing Saul near En Gedi. This photo was taken at En Gedi, and that’s the Dead Sea and Jordan in the distance. I am so thankful to have been able to see the places talked about …
Can You Believe It?
As we go into the 7th…or is it the 8th week of sheltering-in, it’s increasingly hard for me to focus on writing anything longer than a blog post! And it’s not because I am fearful…I figure it’s my ADHD kicking in full-time. lol I know God has this, and at some point, it will end. But so many things pull …
What I’m Reading Friday ~ Stolen Secrets
Some days I need this reminder. But He is faithful and true. Since I’m plotting a Love Inspired Suspense book, I’ve been reading a few, and this week I read Sherri Shackleford’s Stolen Secrets. Whew! This is a page-turner! And I loved the characters, but more on that later. Here’s the back cover copy: Someone has been impersonating software engineer …
Crazy Insurance Claims
This has been my go-to verse for at least twenty years, and I thought it was a good one for the week after Easter. I don’t know about you, but after not being around people and carrying on conversations, I’m finding it a little hard to carry on a coherent discussion when I’m finally around someone. 🙂 Like last week …
