Calvary

Will I Stay Or Will I Go?

April 12, 2022 by admin 6 Comments

Holy Week I love this time of year. Spring has rolled in. Trees are greening. The smell of growth and bloom is in the air. And, I love the week we call “Holy Week.” The celebration of Resurrection is the greatest event on the calendar – for believers and followers of Christ it is the… [Read More]

The Man In The Middle

Luke 23.43

The Man In The Middle This past weekend my husband’s cousin came to visit us in Tiny House – we had a marvelous time. One of the things we did, on Saturday, was go downtown Greer. We had a fabulous lunch at Select, and then we did a walk-about. The revitalization project of Downtown Greer… [Read More]

For Me…

For me

For Me Many, many years ago, way back in history, My Savior walked upon this earth; each day He thought of me. When He was only twelve years old in Jerusalem He stayed behind, In the temple He questioned wise men but I was on His mind. Baptized in the Jordan, the Man of Galilee,… [Read More]

Quietude – March 30-31, 2019

The Way To Calvary

The Way To Calvary The cross, the individual one we all have to face, is not an instrument of torture so much as it is that narrow doorway through which we have to commit our passage, and our souls. Andrew Budek-Schmeisser I have come that you may have life, and that you may have it… [Read More]

As In the Days of Noah

September 13, 2017 by admin 48 Comments

Can I get a witness?  When the Son of Man returns, it will be like it was in Noah’s day. In those days before the flood, the people were enjoying banquets and parties and weddings right up to the time Noah entered his boat. People didn’t realize what was going to happen until the flood came and… [Read More]

Quietude: April 9 2017

April 9, 2017 by admin 9 Comments

A man of sorrows. And we did not care. Those are the words in Isaiah 53 that bring me great pause. Why is it we think of Jesus as our beautiful One? The Word tells us He was “nothing much to look at.” Easy on the eyes? No, not our Jesus. Then, why? Why does God… [Read More]

the cross

March 10, 2016 by admin 27 Comments

  Have you been there? One simple question, “Have you been to the cross?” April is an amazing month. Two of my three children, and one son-in-love, were born in April and several close relatives. The world celebrates Earth Day this month (The earth is the Lord’s; and all its fullness, the world and those… [Read More]

back to the abc’s

August 19, 2015 by admin 29 Comments

I guess it’s safe to say that all writers love letters, words, books, creating outlines, and all the etcetera’s in-between! I find safety in these things – things I can read and form. Put a tray of letter tiles in front of me and suddenly I am forming words, names, places. When I was young… [Read More]

Vision Every gardener, every writer, has a vision. Vision
Every gardener, every writer, has a vision. In gardening we envision fresh salads, delicious el dante French green beans, and juicy tomato sandwiches. 🍅 As a writer my vision is legacy. My story is one of peaks and valleys, potholes and narrow paths. There are chapters of shame and there are chapters of victory. God has used every single jot and tittle for my good and His glory. See that stack of books on the shelf? That's VISION. That's LEGACY.

Commitment Gardening takes commitment.. if you're Commitment 
Gardening takes commitment.. if you're not in it to win it there's no sense in starting.  Writing takes the same commitment. Currently, I have a partially completed work in progress. It's called "my brother is a saint." Right now I'm in a season of 'dry' but I'm still committed. See the first picture? It is a photo of Civil War dated garlic. 32 years ago hubs dug up 5 cloves in a field in Harpersville Alabama known for its Civil War / slavery roots. He carefully propagated it and has shared bulbs with many gardeners. That is commitment. My work in progress will get completed - I am committed.

Routine Writing, like gardening, requires routine. Routine
Writing, like gardening, requires routine. Every morning Farmer Hubster walks around the garden pruning, dead-heading,  tying, and all the things it takes to have an abundant harvest. Writing requires time spent in reading, research, and WRITING. A popular author once said, "if you want to be a writer then you must write something every day." I attempt to do that. I like the routine of writing ✍️. #hopewriterlife
