Weekend Delights….Happy…Help…Hallelujah…Hmmmm

  Do you ever wish you were something other than what you are?  This week I wished I was a basketball player.  Don’t laugh.  There are a million ways we wish we were different…wonder what our lives would look and feel like…if only.  Take some time this weekend to consider who you ARE…where you ARE….and

Favorite Things Party Recap

A Favorite Things Party:  A gathering of friends who all bring a set number of their favorite things that cost a set price.  Said friends enjoy food and fellowship and then swap their goodies.  Everyone goes home with  new items.   I had pinned this idea on Pinterest many moons ago.  It was one of

Weekend Delights…Tunes…Truth…Treats…The Misters

    I can’t seem to escape these words lately – Don’t despise small beginnings.  Words of wisdom, no doubt.  Why is it so hard to embrace the small and why do we wish for the small to be bigger?  Why does bigger seem better unless it means our pants size?  This weekend may we

IF She Lets Go….

She’s on her knees in the darkened room.  What everyone else is doing doesn’t much matter.  God’s voice is as unique and individual as the hearts of the gathered women.  Tears fall hot as she whispers the truth she wishes he didn’t know…forehead pressed against the concrete barrier in front of her.  Of course he

Weekend Delights…Winsome…Words…Web Finds

It’s the weekend…cue the cheering and the deep exhales.  Turn off the alarms, linger over coffee, find time to be YOU and love YOURS. W.O.R.D.S.   The lie the taskmasters want you to swallow is that you cannot rest until your work’s all done, and done better than you’re currently doing it.  But the truth
