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]

Quarterly Report 2021 – Q3

September 28, 2021 by admin 10 Comments

Why a Quarterly Report If truth be told, and I am a truth agent, I do these for me.  I like to look back at the three months and take inventory, per se. But, this third quarter of 2021 was admittedly one of the worst periods of my life. I was quite unwell. July The… [Read More]

Five Minute Friday: Care

September 24, 2021 by admin 20 Comments

Kate said care. When I was a little girl we attended Grace Bible Chapel, a Brethren Assembly Fellowship, Exclusive… don’t ask. Once a month the Sunday evening service included hymn requests – now, back then we sang from hymn books [Hymns of Grace and Truth] and my favorite hymn was page 100. If the leader… [Read More]

Five Minute Friday: Slow

June 4, 2021 by admin 10 Comments

Kate said slow. Funny, I’ve used the expression “slow and steady” several times recently. I would rather be known for slow, steady, sure, and steadfast than fast and furious and full of hot air!!! The Turtle and the Hare You know the story. The bunny rabbit gets totally burned out and Mr. Turtle wins the… [Read More]

Be Quiet & Listen

June 1, 2021 by admin 6 Comments

Job 38 It’s Tuesday after a 3-day weekend and I’m going to keep this short. But, instead of short and sweet – it will be short and profound! In the Old Testament book of Job – God speaks. He speaks loud and clear…directly to Job. Directly to me. Directly to you. Here’s your assignment…read Job… [Read More]

The Desire For Discernment

April 20, 2021 by admin 16 Comments

Desiring Discernment My daughter advised me this past weekend that I needed to keep my mouth quiet about the Vaccine. She said it was too sensitive of an issue to speak publicly about. So, if anything I’ve said or posted has offended anyone please forgive me. I’ve made my stand on the whole Covid and… [Read More]

Matters of the Heart

March 16, 2021 by admin 26 Comments

The Heart True confessions. I like reality tv shows. I watch The Bachelor – I turn off the raunchy scenes. But I find it so interesting that in this particular program, whether it is bachelor or bachelorette, a phrase is used over and over again… I just have to follow my heart. Really? Now, the… [Read More]

Would You Ask Me?

March 2, 2021 by admin 14 Comments

The Great Request Now there were certain Greeks among those who came up to worship at the feast. 21 Then they came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, “Sir, we wish to see Jesus.” 22 Philip came and told Andrew, and in turn Andrew and Philip told Jesus. John 12.20-22 Would they ask me? And,… [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
