Seeing God in the Everyday
Thankfully Aware
Hallelujah! Thank you, Lord! How good you are! Your love for us continues on forever. Who can ever list the glorious miracles of God? Who can ever praise him half enough?

Heaven Scent
I did something last week that I haven’t done in years. It was one of the hard days with my Chronic Fatigue and I just had no energy to make supper. So I ordered pizza. And not just pizza: pasta and dessert. (You have to buy three items to get the coupon.) With careful management,…
