Welcome!

Hi there,

Welcome to my blog. My hope is that a look into someone else's home might be able to encourage you not to feel so lonely inside your own. We are all connected. We would be even more connected if we thought outside the physical realm and allowed ourselves to be healed spiritually. That’s where you’ll find the true strength to carry on! Here is a link on how to do that: http://www.licoc.org/Gospel/Gospel.htm

Learning to Give Thanks Thru Every Storm

"For many people give thanks to God when He gives, Job gave thanks when He took."....The Devil wanted to destroy Job's dedication to God. In fact, He boldly told the Lord the only reason Job feared God was because God had put a wall of protection around him, (in various forms of tremendous blessings)....so the Lord allowed Satan to test Him by stripping Him of all he had...Job's response was not an easy one, nor in today's society would it be a common one, but yet He yielded. He was blessed for it..."Job stood up and tore his robe in grief. Then he shaved his head and fell to the ground to worship. He said,"I came naked from my mother’s womb,and I will be naked when I leave.The LORD gave me what I had, and the LORD has taken it away. Praise the name of the LORD!” In all of this, Job did not sin by blaming God. Job 1:20-21 (NLT). It's OK to mourn the losses we experience on this journey, but we can't live there. We have to keep fight knowing the God of Heaven will prevail. I want to BRING HIM GLORY WHEN IT RAINS
