Our Miracle God!

I was going to share about an enormous answer to prayer, and mentioned so the other day….but after posting the post I realized I hadn’t asked permission to share the answer to prayer.  Even though I guessed it would be okay, I don’t ever want to assume anything.  =) So now that I have secured…

Today and Tomorrow!

Today’s the day I get to meet some of you!  I am so excited!  Love, you are so right!  When a natural introvert steps out of the comfort zone, it is waaay different.  And although I have done quite a bit of public speaking over the years {and loved it!}, this was pretty big for…

Anyone Want to Meet Me Coffee?

The Lord has been whispering some things to my heart.    I’ve been praying about them for a long time.   It’s some adventurous stuff.  Out-of-my-comfort-zone kind of things…. And I’m pretty excited. Actually really excited. Little bit nervous too. For starters, we are going to Denver to a convention.   And we will be…

Memorial Box Monday

I thought I might do something a little different today. I try very hard to read all the Memorial Box Monday links, with partial success. Each one I am able to read reminds me of the attributes of God. The stories often remind me of things in my own life that could easily have long…

James signed up and went to Africa with Dw and the team last year. On the…

Running With a Bucket

We have been having a  blast with J and C, who arrived Thursday around supper time.  The kids have all gotten along wonderfully…..and it hit me the other day, we have 15 people here at the moment….ten of us and five of them!  How crazy is that?   Last night, C, Emma, and I decided to…

Thanks a Million

Whoooa! Now that was stinkin’ fun….. Really and truly, yesterday I was giddy and giggly waiting for it to go over a million.   Probably because I am just a Mom of Many, who has lived most of my life quietly serving the Lord alongside my husband, a total homebody – who would rather take…

Sometime Over the Week-end…

Sometime this week-end a monumental event will occur {at least monumental over here at this Place Called Simplicity}.   A few days ago we noticed that the Site Meter counter was nearing the “big one”. {Right sidebar, beneath Live Traffic feed.} The thought of having had one million visitors here at Our Place Called Simplicity in…
