{My Daughter is Alive}

car accident

Last Tuesday I got a phone call from my daughter telling me the car behind her had blown a tire. The car was so close to her she thought it was going to hit her. But praise YHVH it didn’t happen. She and my grandchild were safe. Last Friday night my grandson and I got [...]

{Frustration Turned Around}

I had been frustrated and stressed out for awhile. I literally couldn’t think straight. I couldn’t focus. It was getting to the point where I just wanted to stay in bed, even though I couldn’t. I kept complaining about how I felt. I told God I just needed a break so I kept trying to [...]

It has been years since I gave my tithes to any organization. I stopped after feeling like I had been a fool giving to all of those offerings and still financial tragedy followed me.

That is, to tell our children what God has done for us. It is imperative that children learn how God has worked is [...]

{My Grandson, a Gift from God}

On June 21, 2010 I was telling my friend that I missed my grandson. I don’t get to see him like I did when he lived with me. I’m always wondering what he is doing. He will be one-year-old next week, yet he has more common sense than an adult. He is so smart. When [...]
