Even though we still weren’t sure if the whole pilot-thing for Jeffrey was going to work out (Will Jeffrey’s Dreams Be Dashed?), we needed to keep moving forward to see about getting him someplace to live down in Arizona.  Still a lot of question marks, no doubt, but did we trust God or not?  So … More Checking Out Dorm Rooms

I shared with you back in Oh, The Grace And Ways Of God, that Jeffrey had always dreamed of becoming an airline pilot.  He’d loved anything to do with airplanes as long as Gary and I could remember – as a matter of fact just sitting in an airport watching the planes land and take-off … More Will Jeffrey’s Dreams Be Dashed?

Okay, college paperwork for Jeffrey was pretty much filled out, and we’d received hopeful news that Jeffrey’s disability payments from the State of Arizona would start in 3-6 months, instead of a year.  Now we decided to get moving on becoming guardians for Jeffrey to help take care of all his financial needs once he … More Truckin’ Forward – One Step At A Time

Faith:  “…being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see” (Hebrews 11:1 NIV – emphasis mine). Oh to be “sure” and “certain” in our faith!  I know for me there are moments when my faith seems so strong that I really do believe I could move mountains (never tried … More Surety Needed…

How many of you hear me when I say that focusing on our circumstances (either in the present or the future) can cause us to live in confusion, anxiety and even fear?  Focusing on the things present on this earth can give us sleepless nights, headaches, and a whole other slew of physical problems (more … More Pull Your Eyes Away!

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!
