Day 15 Star of Wonder
She most definitely delivered an uplifting lesson today. How incredible to be the first human being that God sends His angel to after the 400 Silent Years? Instead though, Zechariah like Sara, back in Genesis at her old age didn’t know how to believe what was said. Why do we tend to see with our…

Bookshelves
When Dad and Grandpa Freddy planned out my room shelves were on the list. I have shelves made into the wall, including what I call my ledge, in the hallway leading out of my room. This was before my book fetish started. Now I have three more bookcases for more than just books of course,…

A Funny Frustrating Night

Devotional Catch Up
Starting with Chapter 8 Angela delves into the various prophecies succumbing around the Nativity narrative. Her reflections and knowledge has brought about new perspective and clarity for those of us in this discussion group. Honestly, with nearly 200 members it’s hard to have a real discussion. However, she adds on to her thoughts from the…

24 Years Later… Thoughts
Today through the years has always been a measuring stick of sorts for me. I thought for certain I would have a finished book by the 20 year mark and that didn’t happen. Now we are at the 24 years later. Grandpa has now been gone longer than I had actual time with him. This…
