Who am I? A wife for almost 40 years. A mom for over 36 years. A sister and a friend, of course. Each of these help describe me. But, even more, I have been a Christian since accepting Him as my Savior when I was 12 years old and, this truth defines each area of my life. I have enjoyed some mountain top experiences but have been through some very deep valleys as well. Valleys of incredible grief and even pits of depression. However, most of my days are ordinary, routine kind of days. But in every one of my days, God has been faithful. He has walked with me whatever the day. He strengthens, comforts, encourages and blesses me with life "most abundant."

A favorite life verse: The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. John 10:10

Why do I write? Though not quite as private as my dad, I am definitely my father's daughter. I find it difficult to share. And to let others in. But I do love to write. I love to put words into sentences and sentences in paragraphs that help express my thoughts. I hope my words help me share my heart. Share the life that God has given me and all that He has done for me and through me. I write with the hope of giving Him at least a bit of the glory He is due.

A verse to guide my writing: That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ. I Peter 1:7

  2. Isn't that the truth? Let us rejoice and be glad in it! Hope all is well with you. My surgery is this Friday, June 4th. Don't really have an exact time as I guess it depends to a degree on the dye they are injecting that is suppose to let them know which lymph node to remove. He said some people show it in an hour, others can take as long as 4. He said it will be a LONG day. And if he is saying that up front, it will probably be REALLY long. sigh…Can't wait till it is behind me in many ways. Most of the time I do have the Lord's peace about it all, but I am dreading it nonetheless. Thanks for the prayers…Have a GOOD week. HUGS, Debbie

  6. Perfect! And I just read the post about Riley and the chest falling on her; yes, we need to live in "today", because we do NOT know what tomorrow will bring. I am so thankful that your sweet little Riley was OK; what a scary time for all of you. Enjoy all that summer has to offer, and know that the very best of it is just a tiny taste of the joy that awaits us……
