Kate said confident. Something I say to my adult grandchild, Be confident in your decisions; own your mistakes. I believe “real” confidence – not the boastful, braggadocious kind comes with maturity. And, I believe maturity can be in a 25-year old or the obvious, older person; however, confidence can be developed. I know because I… [Read More]

Five Minute Friday: BUILD
Kate said BUILD. No brainer (for me). Love this prompt. Let’s go… We are all BUILDer’s. One way or the other – we are BUILDing something. And, regardless of what or who is being built there is a fundamental principle. Foundation. You must build a firm foundation because if you do not, your BUILDing will crumble…. [Read More]

I learned a long time ago that when all is said and done, my deep satisfaction, my deepest desires are the result of One. Remember,… [Read More]
Five Minute Friday: DEEP
Kate said, “DEEP.” Deep. What a word. Deep, even!!! Okay. One word. Five Minutes. Essay on DEEP. (I’m thinking as I ramble-type.) Jesus on the way to Samaria – remember He needed to go there. That’s what the NKJV said. He met one of my most favorite characters in The Word. Samantha from Samaria. A Samaritan…. [Read More]
