Anxious Thoughts

Posted on April 5, 2017 by For Glory Sake!

Oh how I can stress… worry, fret and think on things round and round. Seems some parts of the month are easy and joyful while others are harder and way more exhausting. Hormones? “When my anxious thoughts multiply within me, … Continue reading →

Year of Experiences

Posted on December 17, 2016 by For Glory Sake!

December is here. Another year winding down. Days and weeks have passed stuffed with experiences. More joys and concerns than I can count or bring before God enough.  His faithfulness astounds me, even as my questions have not been answered. … Continue reading →

No Panic-mode

Posted on November 12, 2016 by For Glory Sake!

I’m just finishing up another terrific 7 week Biblestudy with my girlfriends. The story of Gideon has taught us so much about God using the weak not only in-spite of our weaknesses… but because of them! Meee God meets us in that … Continue reading →

….Well, we’ve done it again. Moved! My parent’s home (that we were all living in) is on the market and we are in our own place again. What an eventful 2 years! Sad to leave, I asked God to help … Continue reading →

I’ve heard that the 1st holiday following a death is the toughest… Christmas is here and my parents aren’t. They’ve always been a part of our celebrations, and it seems strange not to have them around. Our joy over their … Continue reading →

Wasps and Shugga

Posted on July 31, 2014 by For Glory Sake!

As much as I fretted over coming home, worried about it, thought I couldn’t do it (I’m just being honest), – we’re back.  Vacation was fun, but it’s not reality. It’s time to get to it. When my sister asked … Continue reading →

Waiting

Posted on June 20, 2013 by For Glory Sake!

Waiting on God is no easy business. Even the folks in heaven have been told to wait patiently (Rev. 6:11). Sometimes I’ve had that secure feeling of being held in God’s loving arms. Other times it’s more like I’m dangling in the … Continue reading →

My Trust Box

In a past post, I wrote about Hope Jars https://forglorysake.com/index.php/2011/11/13/my-hope-jar/. Containers full of pennies for each time I saw God working in my kid’s lives. These have been so encouraging to me especially in the dark moments when my prayers … Continue reading →

How Far We've Come…

Posted on November 25, 2012 by For Glory Sake!

Thanksgiving was a milestone this year. I hardly made it an hour without tears in my eyes and a lump in my throat. God has amazed me with all His faithfulness. My “Jesus Calling” devotional shows three years of comments … Continue reading →
