Natchitoches Meat Pies

I mentioned in this little blog a few days ago that I was going to get back to making bread and doing some other therapeutic things with my hands. Well, I’m happy to report that I spent yesterday doing just that. I was kind of on a baking frenzy, and I guess it turned out…

Back to the Bread

I was talking with a friend the other day, and she was sharing her excitement about the possibility of renting a house. She has been renting a condo for the last few years, and she has really wanted to just get into a house. She said to me, “I need to be able to get…

Guided by Father

Don’t you love it when a plan comes together? I’ve said it so many times before in this little blog, I’m blessed to know so many wonderful people in this world, people with hearts the size of Texas 🙂 . Over the past several weeks as we’ve been finalizing our “Art of Giving” event I’ve…

Listen

Well, there’s a simple title for today’s little blog. A single word but my, it conveys so much. You all know I spend time each morning before I sit down here, talking with Father. It’s my “check-in” with Him before I start the day. It’s kind of like grounding myself before the day’s business takes over and if I…

Walking in the Wilderness

Today is Ash Wednesday and the beginning of Lent. During this time of Lent, we observe the 40 days that Jesus spent in the wilderness fasting and being tested by satan. It’s hard to imagine all the ways that He was tempted and tested, yet Jesus denied satan at every step, He did not sin. We can…

Forgiveness Starts in the Mirror

I come to this little blog often sharing words about forgiveness. We all know that Father has asked that we not only love others as He loved us, but He also asks us to forgive others as He forgives us. Let’s face it, we make mistakes, we disappoint, we screw up, simply put, we are human. Do you…
