My mind is hard-pressed on Irma and Florida – where loved ones abound. Watching the cone; mapping the coordinates. Praying non-stop. Never saying amen. Nothing is taking precedence over this prayer and watch vigil. I peeked into the FMF party and sent blessings and a request to pray – these are true friends and I… [Read More]

Storm Warnings!
Hurricane Harvey. Hurricane Irma. No question we are having a busy hurricane season. I grew up in South Florida and I remember the times of lowering the awnings, filling jugs, buckets, bathtubs with water, binging on junk food, and the icing on the cake AFTER the storm?

Tasty Tuesday: The Journey – Food for Life and Health
We’ve all heard the saying, “You are what you eat!” I’m not sure about the truth in that because, if true, I’d be a leaf of lettuce with legs! My good friend and I jokingly say, “We hope the good Lord doesn’t put us in charge of the lettuce patch in heaven because we’ve eaten… [Read More]

Photo: Cascades Waterfall, Blue Ridge Parkway, NC. By Tammi Bare Today’s scripture is special to me – Colossians 1.10 is my life verse! I have it memorized in the NKJV with a Susan twist but the NLT translation is quite lovely. Our “praying scripture” encompasses Colossians 1.10-12 Then the way _____ lives will always honor… [Read More]
Five Minute Friday: GUIDE
Yesterday, I worked hard. I work hard every day but Thursday was a day of physical labor. We live in a 65-year old farmhouse, in which the original windows hang. I washed TWO windows yesterday. Doesn’t sound like much, does it? However, each window has 5 layers, an exterior side and an interior side =… [Read More]
