Musing on Sunday Night
This morning in Sunday School I saw the words ‘vulnerable communities’ in our book and couldn’t help myself. Charlie was ministering to such a community. College students needed to be taught to be more able to question the Liberal professors trying to dictate their thoughts. And he did his way. However, when I tried discussing…

Overwhelmed
This morning I was awakened way too early for the morning after Grandma’s party. I had hoped to sleep in longer, Bryan wouldn’t have it though. He wanted to talk to me last night, but I was physically and emotionally exhausted. So I promised him this morning; our definition of morning was not the same.…

My Evening Thoughts
Today has had a big twist. My heart has ached for the Kirk Family and their unexpected loss. However, even in the midst of this heartache there is a silver lining he knew Christ and had Salvation. We may be mourning as a nation or at least half of the country, but Heaven gained a…

A Tragedy
The name Charlie Kirk did not come to my attention until January 2021 I believe. It was when I left Facebook for a time and found myself going from one platform to another following Conservative voices. Being out of college for awhile it took me a while to learn about him as well as others…

A Beautiful Morning
My weather app says it’s 40 degrees right now it’s supposed to be partly cloudy. However, the sun is out and I can see the sun’s rays filling the sky. It’s a beautiful site for today, even though I am still not exactly awake. For some personal reasons I didn’t get very much sleep last…

Thursday… Lessons Learned
Approaching February 6th still remains a solemn day for me. No matter how many years since that year it happened in 2005. Perhaps though for tonight, I will start with last night and the other thing that happened before my few minutes and goodnight words with my boyfriend. There was a Christmas Party in the…
