The God Of All Comfort

We all have those days when we’re just feeling blue, don’t we?  Sometimes we can put our finger on “why,” but a lot of times we may start to feel down for seemingly no reason at all.  Something just seems out of kilter in our lives, but we can’t figure out why we’re all of … More Family Can Be Anywhere

Some if you might remember my post earlier this year about a tremendous financial blessing that came our way many years ago, which enabled us to get out of debt and eventually obtain the financing needed to purchase a wheelchair accessible van for Jeffrey (OK, My Cup’s Brimming Over). Well I was reminded the other … More Another Blessing Comes Tumbling In, But Clueless As To Why

As I wrote about in my last post Another “Crank-Fest” Starts Up, my mood as of late had been pretty bad, but I was trying to get back on track so we could move forward in getting Jeffrey ready for possibly going to college. Since we had no idea what the next year was going to … More A Taste Of Divine Intervention?

Whoa, baby – Jeffrey’s senior year was turning out to be way too stressful.  There were just too many unknowns which seemed to be thrown at me constantly, and I wasn’t handling it too well.  I tried to hold onto Psalm 46:10 which I wrote about in my last post, but I was having a … More Another “Crank-Fest” Starts Up

Jeffrey had just started his senior year of high school, and things were moving at a fast pace.  Exactly what did God have planned for when Jeffrey graduated from school? In my last post, Lord, Increase My Faith, I continued with the story of Jeffrey and his dream of attending Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University (ERAU).  This dream … More Cease Striving!

I wrote a bit about Jeffrey’s “supposed” college plans back in my post Whose Child Is He?.  I say “supposed,” because there were so many times when I really just had no idea of what the future held for Jeffrey, in spite of knowing that God had him in His caring hands. Since we didn’t … More Lord, Increase My Faith!

  I just love how God comes through for those that need Him, even when sometimes it just doesn’t make sense deep in our hearts. Yes, personally I fully believe and trust in Him – but being human I still have those moments when my flesh struggles to rise to the surface (Oh, The Grace … More Trusting In God – Even When Everything Inside You Says “No!”

Our son Jeffrey had always been a confident kid, not afraid to step out and do his best to experience what other kids were doing, in spite of his disabilities. So one day he comes home from school and says there’s a college fair coming up, and he planned on going.  The school had already … More Oh, The Grace And Ways Of God

One day I heard a sermon which has really stuck with me. Our pastor years ago was relaying an account of when he and his wife were called to shepherd another church over 2 hours away from where they were currently serving. They had a son who had just graduated from high school, and a … More Whose Child Is He?

There are some accounts in the Bible that used to make me a wee bit upset at my Heavenly Father and His actions.  But, the closer I’ve drawn to Him throughout the years, the more they now make sense. One of them is in Numbers 20:1-13. The Israelites have been wandering in the desert for … More Staying In Pace To Run The Race
