Off To A Good Start
2013 is now in it’s second month. Time to check in and see if your journey is going along as planned. I wake up nearly every morning eager to pick up my Bible and see what God wants to share with me on this day. I’ve found my enthusiasm didn’t come immediately. Instead it came …
A New Year – A New Plan – A New Perspective

HELLO…HELlo…Hello…hello
Is there an echo? I believe there is. I feel as though my journey has led me into a deep canyon where I feel isolated and alone. As I write this post, I’m calling out to see if there are any voices other than my own returning echo. Please speak to show there is! It …
Bridge Over Troubled Water
We’re all familiar with this classic Simon and Garfunkel song, and sadly many of us are familiar with troubled water. In my quiet time this morning I was listing out all the things in my life right now that have made me sad. It seems my heart has felt sad for a while which led …
Benefits of Seat Heaters
I have traveled on many road trips where it was cold and quite uncomfortable, but recently discovered the amazing benefits of seat heaters. They are wonderful for warming up tired muscles and keeping them from becoming too sore and stiff on a long trip. We are taking a long road trip this year – Route …
