Kate said, “Include.” This morning I woke up, got coffee, came upstairs to do my FMF post. When I saw the word “include” I thought to myself this may be hard. I went over to Unsplash because I get inspiration from the photos and I searched the word “alone.” Isn’t it odd that alone is the word I… [Read More]

Five Minute Friday: STUCK
Kate said, “STUCK.” 00:00 Most of you know the theme of my life since late 2002 has been HOPE. I’m stuck on it. Like glue. Are you stuck? In a rut? Out of luck? Can’t get out? No need to pout! I’ve got something for you – it’s invisible but it is ever so real…. [Read More]
Five Minute Friday: TURN
Kate said, “TURN.” 00:00 A series of essayettes! Turn your life around. There are times when God comes in and holds that stop sign or perhaps a yield sign and so loudly you hear Him say, IT IS TIME YOU TURN YOUR LIFE AROUND. You can read about that here. *** God allow U-TURNS. Yes,… [Read More]

Five Minute Friday: TIRED
00:00 Kate said TIRED. Funny, just the word makes me tired and I woke up this morning at 5 a.m. to howling wind and my first thought was… I’m tired and want to go back to sleep. I laid there and thought about this word and couldn’t think of anything positive to say. Because I… [Read More]
Five Minute Friday: REGRET
Kate said… 00:00 HAVE ANY? REGRETS? Have any? Regrets, that is? I sure do! However, I refuse to hang out there. I use my regrets to remind me I never want to go back to my old life. I use my regrets to rejoice in the saving grace of Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior…. [Read More]
Five Minute Friday: WHY
Kate said, or perhaps, asked… 00:00 WHY? The answer to the question, “Why?” In light of this week’s horrific events is… the same answer to Job’s display of grief in his OT book… We live in a fallen world. “Think it not strange these fiery trials….” (1 Peter 4) This living is not going to… [Read More]
