If you ask my kids, I have always laid on the cautious side about partaking in the festivities around or on October 31st; but this post isn’t about me. Tonight after viewing my East Coast families posts, I thought about things differently. There were several families on social media that caught my attention. Families areContinue reading “Hallo-who”

You Are Not Alone
Though I knew I had to complete what I started, I found myself hesitating because my dad passed away before he was given the opportunity to see it in print. He wasn’t shy about his struggles, actually he put them all in his journals. His desire was to reach others who were experiencing similar difficultiesContinue reading “You Are Not Alone”

Mask Up
Not sure what you think when you read the title, “Mask Up” or how you even feel about wearing a mask. The coverings are worn anytime in public when we are near others. Wearing a mask is a piece of protective equipment. When we wear a mask, we protect others, and when others wear aContinue reading “Mask Up”
Pausing To Share
One of my goals for today was to write a blog post for our website, but as I sat down for our morning devotion, I thought you’d be encouraged by the Scripture in Our Daily Bread, Galatians 6:7–10. Maybe today you are saying for the 100th time that you are sick and tired of thisContinue reading “Pausing To Share”
Menopause Awareness Month
September is Menopause Awareness Month, an opportunity to educate one another about this season of our lives. Menopause is a natural and normal part of aging, yet there has been a lot of stigma and misinformation associated with it. And because of this and the way menopause is portrayed in much of the media, womenContinue reading “Menopause Awareness Month”
Pausing To Share…Hope In Hospice
When I read the scripture and the devotional this morning in Early Morning Prayer it mentioned about a loved one who was in hospice in their final stages of life. If the truth be told we are all in a natural (earthly) holding pattern, all in a spiritual hospice. The Bible says it is appointedContinue reading “Pausing To Share…Hope In Hospice”
Pausing For You!
Over the years, in addition to publishing several books, I have benefited from writing blogs and articles for several magazines and websites. But recently I thought about you, perhaps you have an untold story, testimony, or poem that you’d like to share? Our Summer and Fall issue have been published but keep reading you stillContinue reading “Pausing For You!”
I’m Not Alone
For most of us as adolescence we were told about puberty, menstruation and pregnancy; but not about menopause. It’s humorous that it took us almost 12 years to get to puberty and only 12 consecutive months to confirm that we are menopausal. Menopause is the time when a woman’s menstrual period ends. Menopause is consideredContinue reading “I’m Not Alone”
Thankful
It is something to lose someone any time of year, but I say a special prayer for those who have lost a loved one during or around the holiday season(s). The other day, we were jolted by the news of another childhood friend had passed away. Though we hadn’t kept in touch, it was ironicContinue reading “Thankful”
