My BFFAE (Best Friend For All Eternity) said she was reading in Ecclesiastes, so I decided to join her. So you can thank her for what I'm posting today! (She's such an amazing woman of God and I'm blessed to have her in my life!) The traditional definition of one’s “lot in life” is a … Continue reading Lot in life
Have you ever had a close call, one where it happened so fast, your life did not have even have a chance to pass before your eyes? Well I did on Thursday. My husband left at 7:30 in the morning to drive over and pick up a load of feed, He was not due back … Continue reading Close call
We've all been there. (Whether we admit it or not.) Someone cuts you off in traffic. Or you get stuck behind the person who thinks the speed limit is a friendly suggestion, as they proceed to drive 20 miles an hour below it. Getting angry about it just ain't worth it!

During this season of Easter, Jesus did just that. That's why it is called “His passion.” So when a fellow blogger did a … Continue reading Passionate

I got a telemarketer who called my office so good the other day! He started reading from his script, very monotone in his speech, and then asked if the owner was there. I replied, “Yes I am, and I did the job exactly as you told me to, but there's blood everywhere! What do you … Continue reading Dead weight
I always feel sorry for that poor guy named Will. You know, when in the movies, the person in charge says, “Fire at will!” Fire at will is a command given to allow the troops to fire when they are ready.
