The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. Lamentations 3:22, 23 Yesterday after lunch I found myself deep in thought while cleaning up the table and doing the dishes. Each week the kids rotate chores {it’s been working so…

This verse has been mulling around in my mind these last few days: The mind of man plans his way, But the Lord directs his steps. Proverbs 16:9 With much on my mind, I was unable to sleep any longer yesterday morning. I just really wanted to spend some time with the Lord. I needed…

The other day the kids started whooping and hollering, “Look Mom!! Look out the window!” I was on the phone but asked the kind person if they could hang on for one second. With this kind of excitement I knew that whatever it was it had to be dang good!! Oh my. Their enthusisam didn’t…

No, this isn’t some band wagon I’m jumping on. This is basically the culmination of a lifetime of awareness and concern mingled with many years of up close and personal experiences. I do not write this post lightly. I’ve cried tears as I typed and it has taken me several days to pray about it,…

Storms

We were just outside Emma’s new home doing wash. We hung it all across the lines and came into the house. About 15 minutes later, this was the sky. Storm clouds are rolling in and the wind has arrived. At the same time, our hearts are heavy with the ‘storms’ around the world. A terrorist…

Gettin’ All Gussied Up…

As Easter Sunday approaches, much preparation and thought will have gone into what everyone will wear. Somehow, somewhere, someone started the ‘tradition’ of dressing up extra special for Easter. Stores clothes racks which once were laden with fancy dresses and darling little boy suits will now be nearly emptied as moms and dads looked…

Was There An Expiration Date on That?

I’ve had some thoughts mulling around in my heart for awhile. The Lord has been whispering some truths to me and to ignore them would be wrong. They’re not necessarily easy to read {please skip if you’re not in the mood}, but they are, none the less, truths from Him and His word….

Thoughts from My Heart

Dear Bloggy Friends, As I have prayed about what to post today, the Lord reminded me that He has given me a platform as a mentor to many. First and foremost, I have an obligation before Almighty God to share His heart with you, as I have done hundreds of times in the past regarding…

I started our Place Called Simplicity just because I love to write and thought it would be nice to chronicle life’s journey for my family. My hope was that one day they would would read to it to their children and get to know their Mimi who loved them so much. Somehow the Lord had…
