  • Hope in Loss

    Loss. It’s something that we have all had to face this year—for many, in painfully acute ways that we have not had to face before. Back in April, I felt like this tree was a picture of what life had become. On the brink of blooming in a white cascade of sweet smelling blossoms, but…

  • God speaks to us in many ways.  Often times through reading His word, sometimes through friends.  Yesterday God spoke to me in a kind of strange way. Let me give you a little background first though.  I’m going through a kind of tumultuous time of life.  I’m finishing up highschool, and many of the things…

  • 1 Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth.  2 Worship the LORD with gladness;        come before him with joyful songs.  3 Know that the LORD is God.        It is he who made us, and we are his;        we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.  4 Enter his gates…

  • “I call, You hear me I’ve lost it all And it’s more than I can bear I feel so empty You’re strong, I’m weary I’m holding on But I feel like giving in But still You’re with me Chorus: And even though I’m walking Through the valley of the shadow I will hold tight to…

  • Do you remember the “good old days?”  Gun control meant having a good aim.  The chief problems in school were chewing gum, running in the halls, and talking out of turn.  People stood up for God, family and country and were ready and willing to fight for them.  The family was the backbone of our…

  • Hey everyone!  It’s been a while since I’ve posted on here.  A lot has happened since then.  The RMC tournament has come and gone, Savvy came to visit, we sped through Regionals (with none of us advancing to Nats in case your wondering) and went on a family vacation to Virginia.  It’s been so busy, and now…

  • … and it will be a while longer.  I was just asked why I haven’t been posting or commenting in a while.  I have gotten behind on some of my schoolwork, and I’m not allowed on the Internet until I’m caught up.  So I have no idea when I’ll be able to start posting again.…

  • I just found out this morning that yet another of my friends is moving away.  They decided two days ago, and are going to move to Florida on Friday.  I’m in complete shock!  I don’t know what to think.  They are moving to Florida because they have some grandparents there.  They are wanting to help…

  • Today is the birthday of my littlest sister!  She is such a sweet little girl of three.  She is always ready to give a hug, loves to entertain us, tends to dance or run wherever she goes, and has a overall joyful temperament.  I can’t wait to see what God is going to do in…
