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 …
What I’m Reading Friday ~ Passover Week
“He is not here; he has risen!” Luke 24:6 It’s a strange Easter, but I believe there will be more people turning to Christ this Easter than ever before. When I was in Israel, stepping inside what is believed to be the tomb Christ was laid in after the crucifixion was a surreal experience. Visiting Israel is something I wish …
Crazy Blotter Reports
This is another of my favorite scripture verses and one I have memorized. I’m thankful my pastor challenged us a few years ago to memorize Bible verses and this is one I chose. During this difficult time, it has helped me immensely! I hope it encourages you. Now onto last week’s Mystery Question. Three of the following stories are true. …
What I’m Reading Friday ~ Dead End
This verse and the redbud tree reminds me that everything comes to pass, even winter…and Covid-19. May you and yours be safe in this difficult time. This week I read Dead End by Nancy Mehl and could not put it down. More on that later. Here’s what it’s about. When a body is discovered in a field in Iowa, the …
More Crazy Stories
It’s hard to believe that just three weeks ago, I attended the wedding of a friend in a large gathering. And now I’m starting week three of sheltering-in. Sheltering-in will be one of the new phrases added to the dictionary when they update it! I’ve been meditating on this verse for a few days now and realized it’s true. God …
