“Portraits To Ponder”
when I think about the kids
I picture them in my head
smiling and laughing
I do the same with friends Continue reading
“Whispers”
sometimes I wonder
do they see me
or do they see my past
do they guard their men
because of who I was
I mean
really
do they know I’m pure
or assume
I will never be silent
or hold back my laughter
I will never run
because of what they think
Truth made me free
Truth breathes through my life
Truth will always stand
Truth lives inside of me
Swept Off My Feet
Yesterday was full of so much good and then some not so good, and throughout the entire day, God was writing through my heart. Actually, if you ever see me quiet, I’m probably writing on the inside. It happens a lot.
Have you ever been experiencing a difficult time in your life and heard the advice to read through “Job” in the bible? I’ll get back to that.

Social Media: when you have your own business, online networking is a must. When I follow God’s voice, I often think piece-of-cake, until I’m involved in it, and it gets rough, and I’m finding that social media marketing has a darker side than I thought.
At times, I wish there wasn’t a “like” button or a “follow” button Continue reading
“Overwhelmed”
Father’s Day with Lee
Last week, when I had stopped by to visit Lee, he told me how a church had set up showers but that there were so many homeless waiting, he didn’t get to take one, so I invited him over to take one on Sunday, which was yesterday…Father’s Day. Continue reading
The Ultimate ‘Laugh Out Loud’
Yesterday, as I was working on flags, I used the earphones that came with my iPhone and listened to Graham Cooke speaking over me the things God was telling him…talk about POWERFUL!
