Ruby’s Miraculous Debut…

Well that girl of ours,  who has stolen everyone’s heart,  has been up to something quite miraculous!! Actually the first time Ruby did this {which was way back in early April} I literally almost fell over…. and I could not stop between giggling and crying,  all the while worshipping the Lord!! But try as I might, …

I Took Your Advice

 Three months ago in  this post I asked if anyone had any ideas for  my laundry room? I showed everyone just how messy, dark and dingy  it looked and asked if anyone had any ideas what I should do in it to make me want  {okay so “want” might be a  giant stretch, but at least…

He Saw Her

Every now and then something happens that causes me to stop in my tracks.  Perhaps a random act of kindness, a simple gesture that was so unexpected and sometimes it’s just an unsolicited smile. Do you know what I mean? In fact, sometimes when these simple acts  are completely unexpected,  the mere show of unprompted…

Can Hardly Type Through Tears of Joy

I have been gone all morning but sat at a red light  weeping while reading the words from my cousin  Jamie confirming that Meriam and her children had been released!!!!! “We have confirmed through her attorney  that she has been released from prison today.” – Tina Ramirez, Hardwired, a Christian advocacy group What a celebration of…

Monday for Meriam

First off, since Sudan has said in the past  that they are going to release Meriam  and then turned around and said,  “No we aren’t” then I propose we keep praying and  advocating until we see confirmed  news footage  {not just newsprint} of Meriam out of prison!! Today we are praying and some are fasting for…
