Jesus

January 5, 2024 Jesus This should have been my very first post. I will never forget the events that led up to my acceptance of Jesus as my savior. I had just recently gotten free of a 19-year abusive relationship. Just barely making it with the low paying job I had, I couldn’t afford cable […]

Fighting Back

Fighting Back I was diagnosed with chronic depression and PTSD years ago. While they tried every antidepressant they could, they never actually helped with the depression, they just numbed me. I walked around like a zombie, not feeling much of anything. I didn’t feel joy, love, hate, or any of those emotions. I guess the […]

Daily Struggles and I am Blessed

February 18, 2018 – Daily Struggles I used to think that Christians were perfect people. All the ones I met seemed so happy, so sure of themselves, for the most part. I never met any complainers, that is until I became a Christian. Then I soon discovered that they are no different from anyone else, […]

Do as I Say, Not as I Do

Do as I Say, Not as I Do Sometimes I have to go back and read my own articles. I can’t remember everything I’ve written, nor can I remember all the subjects have written about. It’s a good exercise for me, because, as we all know, I am far from perfect and sometimes I need […]

Choices and Sisters

January 14, 2017 – Choices We are given many choices in our life time. We choose who our friends are, what course we want to take in Middle School, High School and College. We choose what kind of work we want to do, where we want to live and even what we want to eat. […]

The Tongue

June 5, 2016 Pastor Salem did a sermon today on the tongue, how it can be used to destroy a person, how it can be used to uplift a person, and more importantly how it should be used to edify and glorify and share Jesus. It got me thinking back to younger days, before I […]

Being a True Christian

Author: Lori Carter Many arguments continue about the validity of the bible. I have even read opinions that state if you don’t accept the bible as being “wholly God’s word” you cannot classify yourself as a Christian. I don’t agree with this statement. The bible holds many writings that have been passed down since the […]
