Hi-Ho Hi-Ho It’s Off To Write We Go!

April 30, 2019 by admin 36 Comments

Not me, Lord.

When you feel like laying it down. Stick a fork in me, I’m done! And, so my Tuesday morning rolled on. Tuesday’s are writing days for me but today? I just couldn’t get passed graduation invites, photos, addresses, and pretty postage stamps! Then lunch time came and it dawned on me I did not have… [Read More]

Gleaning – the first welfare system

March 19, 2019 by admin 28 Comments

GLEANING!

Bringing in the sheaves! I am a believer in the welfare system – for what it was originally set up to do. To HELP someone out who is in a bind and to get up on their own two feet. I was a single Mom for years and I would have qualified but there was… [Read More]

Guest Posting at Jaime’s!

July 27, 2017 by admin 1 Comment

  “So, why a book for children?” I was asked that question in 2013 when I began 52 Commands of Jesus for Children. I don’t remember my answer then but now that the book is finished and on the great big bookshelf at Amazon I can clearly look back and see the “back story” of… [Read More]

Quietude: July 23rd, 2017

July 23, 2017 by admin 5 Comments

Photo Credit: Will Wilson I grew up in South Florida and water was an enormous presence in our world. We went to the beach. We went deep sea fishing. We sat on the inlet walls fishing for sheep-head. We had picnic suppers at the end of hot days. We walked the pier. We hunted shells…. [Read More]

Five Minute Friday: Steady

June 23, 2017 by admin 36 Comments

No Twitter, no party, nothing but sleep for me last night and early! Before it was even dark:thirty. BUT, in the early hours of morning, before the sun broke through the clouds I had a dream. And, I dreamed about Tara and Anita and some of the nurses at Nonnatus House (Call the Midwife) and… [Read More]

Five Minute Friday: WORTH

June 16, 2017 by admin 18 Comments

Finally, I made it to a Five Minute Friday Twitter party – the app on my Kindle was cooperating and I almost kept up with all the posting! Several new faces. Several regulars. And, some missing in action! Summer plans were talked about and general information shared. One of our FMF faithful community members is… [Read More]

Why I Write

June 14, 2017 by admin 46 Comments

I’ve been thinking about this question a lot. Why do I write? Last week I decided to create a Facebook Author page – I just (self-) published my tenth book and thought perhaps it was time to have a page dedicated to my writing. I’ve even done a bit of promoting to the tune of $15.00!!!… [Read More]

Quietude: June 11th 2017

June 11, 2017 by admin 11 Comments

I took this photo years ago on a hike on the App Trail in the Grayson Highlands Park. The root system fascinated me then and still does today. There was no water near this path – is that why the roots of the huge tree stretch across the ground? Shallow Roots vs Deep Roots Water… [Read More]

Kate said fix Today, I come to confess. Dun Dun D Kate said fix

Today, I come to confess.
Dun Dun Dun Dun…

I used to be a FIXER.

Family problems? Not to worry I will manage, manipulate, and fix it. The only problem? It gets expensive and very stressful.

Fixing is bad for your health.

I have learned

There is a Fixer better than myself. This Fixer can and will FIX anything and anyone IF you ask.
If you release.
If you give it up.
If you lay the object of fix on the altar of sacrifice.

Sometimes…

There is an immediate fix. Sometimes The Fixer will ask you to sit still and do nothing. Sometimes The Fixer will use you in the fix.
But THIS I know…

The Fixer really doesn’t need any help from me.

So, What Does One Do?

We pray and our prayers keep The Fixer involved, on the scene, and in the situation.

The Fixer

Do you know Him?

But may the God of all grace [THE FIXER], who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.11 To Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen. 1 Peter 5.10-11

Who or what are YOU trying to fix? Give them/it to The Fixer!
