Following His Path To Something Beautiful
Don't give up! Keep trying. Said Charlie. It started out as a normal day on the boat. We were on the island and trying to catch some fish. We actually caught a lot of fish. And big ones too for so early in the season. Charlie was really excited, however, one of us wasn't catching [...]
Have you ever been lost? Or felt like you were lost? We were at the playground today and as Olivia was playing I moved from where I was to another spot in the play area to sit. I thought Olivia had seen, but she went to where I had been sitting to ask me a [...]
Where is hope found? Have you ever felt like you are on a boat in the middle of nowhere, drifting, and not knowing if you are safe, or will run aground or sink? You maybe have lost hope, and wondering if you can find hope again. And where is hope found, if it has been [...]
She is usually the go-with-the-flow child. The comfortable in most situations child. But when Olivia gets uncomfortable she comes and sits next to me. She will then tell anyone who tries to play with her that she just wants to sit by her mom. This year we put her in camp, and usually, she likes [...]
So this is not a pony tale, or a story about a horse. But the story is kind of hilarious, as I couldn't stop laughing when I told my husband about it for the first time last night. I actually don't think I think I finished the story, so he will hear the end of [...]
Holy week. A week we remember why grace is so amazing. It was Good Friday. And I was deeply grieved. I was making lunch and asked Charlie to get my computer from upstairs. He grabbed it, put it on the sink (about to fall in), and I found the cord left haphazardly left across my [...]
What Is The Point Of It All? Have you ever thought that to yourself? What is the point of it all? And let me tell you, today was one of those days that I needed THIS reminder of what God taught me a couple of months ago. I needed to remember that God was in [...]
“When we go to Florida, angels will protect our plane”. Olivia said that a few weeks ago. I didn’t even know she really knew what an angel was. I mean they are in some of the Bible stories we read to her but, I am pretty sure we have never told her what their roles [...]
New on Candidly Christian Have you ever missed something? Have you almost missed something that God had before you? An opportunity? A blessing? A gift? I probably miss them more than I would like to. But today on Candidly Christian, I am sharing a time that I didn't miss the opportunity. Read the newest post [...]
Have you ever gotten a perfect gift? I am not a big fan of gifts. I really don’t like to open them, because I am so particular. It is even harder for me to open gifts in a large group. Because I also don’t really know how to control my facial expressions when I don’t [...]
