“Hope” is the thing with feathers –That perches in the soul –And sings the tune without the words –And never stops – at all – And sweetest – in the Gale – is heard –And sore must be the storm –That could abash the little BirdThat kept so many warm – I’ve heard it in…

Hope
No pit is so deep that He is not deeper still; with Jesus even in our darkest moments, the best remains and the very best is yet to be. Corrie ten Boom Show me the path where I should go, O Lord; point out the right road for me to walk. Lead me; teach me; for you…
Someone You Should Know:
Corrie ten Boom A couple of weeks ago, I highlighted Anne Frank. Her words, written as she lived during a horrendous time, shine for the reader. Corrie ten Boom was a Dutch Christian watchmaker who, along with her father and sister, hid Jews from the Nazis. Like Anne Frank, she was sent to a concentration…
Bloom . . .
The empty hook on my wall was beginning to irritate me. So I went to the dollar store (I love the dollar store!) and looked through the pictures. After several minutes, I came upon one that said, “Bloom Where You are Planted.” It was a pretty green and pink on a cream background and would…

Isaiah 9:2 Amplified Bible, Classic Edition A dark cloud is no sign that the sun has lost his light;and dark black convictions are no argumentsthat God…
“Fixer Upper”
I enjoy the show “Fixer Upper.” Chip and Joanna Gaines show prospective buyers 3 properties, envisioning how each house can be improved to meet their needs. The clients then choose one and Chip and Joanna get to work. The proposed renovations always seem straight forward, but in every episode, there is an unexpected. It may…
