My Trust is In His Hand
I have been reading my way through I Chronicles for the last several weeks; following along with the First 5 app, by Proverbs 31 Ministries. Some of the genealogy lists are long and seem tedious. However, I have come to realize, that each person is mentioned for a reason. I don't always grasp the significance, but these were real people who . . .

Tomorrow
Five Minute Friday Challenge
The prompt for this week is TOMORROW. In a world that has been turned upside-down, I find hope in tomorrow. I also find an uneasiness, because we don't know what tomorrow will bring. Every day brings change, more bad news. However, I know the answer, I know who holds tomorrow! JESUS!!
That is who I am focusing on. Jesus is Life, . . .

Special Edition 10-Day Challenge
Welcome to a journal entry from a recent Special Edition 10-day challenge that Kate Motaung ran from March 2-12, 2020. The goal was not to post on our blog or social media, but just to simply write for 10 days. Kate then encouraged us to share our favorite one.

A Five Minute Friday Challenge

What I've Been Reading
I promised to post the 2nd half of my 2019 reading list and I'm finally taking the time to do so! I don't know about you, but I love to see or hear about what others are reading. I'm also going to make more of an effort this year to read some books from new authors I have not explored before. Of course, I still plan to read my fair share of . . .

Direction
A Five Minute Friday Challenge
A large portion of my job involves giving directions to people so they can find the clinic they need to be in. I've noticed that some people walk straight past the desk, with no eye contact and keep going on their way. I assume they have been here before and know where they are going. Others make eye contact, but go on over to the . . .
