Perseverance: Following the Thread

On February 26, 2021February 26, 2021 By Sandy B.In God’s lessonsLeave a comment

I am constantly amazed by God’s ability to lead me. Many times in my posts I acknowledge how he speaks to me, or brings things to my attention. Which is reassuring since I’m not consistent in giving him my attention. When I do, and follow the thread that is woven through my world, I discover …

With ground breaking on our beach property and a new year to plan for my writing goals, I have so much on my mind. It becomes difficult for me to push past the overwhelm and decide on a direction to progress in. When I sat down to put down on paper what my vision and …

Persevere

On December 11, 2020December 11, 2020 By Sandy B.In one word1 Comment

Last week I shared the scripture I will be adopting as my theme for 2021, stating I wasn’t sure what one word would be the focus for me. Sunday, as I sat in church, the word became clear to me. To tell you the truth, I wanted to reject it and pick another word. The …

Press On

On December 4, 2020December 4, 2020 By Sandy B.In one word1 Comment

Every year in December I spend time considering the new year and what the Lord is speaking to me. This practice of having a one-word focus and a scripture to support it, has blessed me for the past few years. My words have been: rest, trust, and light. This year’s word, light, seemed so much …

I Have No Friends

On November 13, 2020November 13, 2020 By Sandy B.In depression2 Comments

Over the last week, I have been spiraling down. My thoughts, becoming more negative. I began to question why I am so open about my health and my struggles, posting my life on Facebook and this blog for everyone to see. The answer I gave myself was - I have no friends. Most people would …

The God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego

On November 6, 2020November 6, 2020 By Sandy B.In God’s lessonsLeave a comment

Today I faced a situation I was hoping not to have need of facing. After healing from my third back surgery in late July, I started to have increasing pain over the last month. Finally giving in to the reality of it, I made an appointment with my doctor. On my way there this morning …

Reasoning, The Folly of Job’s Friends

On October 30, 2020October 30, 2020 By Sandy B.In God’s lessons2 Comments

My husband informed me of an oversight that was made regarding the plans for building our home. One that will cost us thousands of dollars we don't have. I've touched on a few of our troubles on this road to buying property and building our dream home. Troubles that increasingly have me questioning God and …

Is My Worship More Than Just a Song?

On October 15, 2020October 16, 2020 By Sandy B.In Relationship with GodLeave a comment

Yesterday, we had a break from our gray skies. I decided to take advantage of the sun and go for a walk. It wasn’t a long walk, just down the street with not much to see. So I turned on my phone figuring I’d get one song in before I’d reach my house again. I …

Acts 17:28 (ESV) Over the past few years, I’ve been uncovering a mysterious power. It is the power of in. For such a small word it has made a big difference in how I perceive my identity. This little word is so vast that I am still learning its reach. Even this blog post will …

Mysterious Ways

On October 2, 2020 By Sandy B.In God, God’s lessonsLeave a comment

You've all heard the saying, ”God works in mysterious ways.” What does that mean, exactly? Does it mean he's unpredictable? Does it mean he is like a riddle? Merriam-Webster defines mysterious as: exciting wonder, curiosity, or surprise while baffling efforts to comprehend or identify. Whereas, Oxford Languages defines it this way: difficult or impossible to …
