Went for a walk with 2 of my pups, really been missing my bailey though. I had to put her down last week. Man on man that is one painful journey for many of us animal lovers, huh?


Well, I'm writing this blog because I wanted to give God Praise for lifting my head and for reminding me this is just another season in life, and He is right there with me.


Work has been pretty good. I am thankful for the provision. Also, I am enjoying my daughters and my grandchildren very much.

On another note, I will admit that I have been seeking Christian counseling for a couple months now to help deal with some stuff; I believe God placed this lady in my life to not only remind me to accept and let go, to stand in His victory, but to also give me helpful and applicable tools to help me look at things differently, to change some of those old patterns that do not serve me or mine. Sometimes, I still get lonely and feel aches, like everyone else I suppose. He again, though, is walking me through it, bringing me to His sufficient grace.

So all in all, I am so grateful for the blessings in my life, there are many, for you too, huh…

Nature, laughter, connection, kindness, learning, praying, friends, family, mercy, reading, writing, hot water, yummy food, coffee, water, place to sleep, clothing, and the breath of the One who created it all.

I hope you and yours are well. I would love to know what you all are up to. I hope your current season, no matter which one, has you grateful.

God Bless you and yours, truly.

I am in a "God is Silent" season. I have moved house from a country area where there was not much work or meeting people opportunity to an area which where there is. This was about a year ago. I made a few friends but in the last two months each of these people have left my life due to their circumstances. Doors have not been opening in the areas that I moved house for yet I believe I was meant to move. It is both confusing and frustrating. I am questioning whether I am in God's will or not. I have prayed about it but he has been silent.

Oh Ruby, dear Sister, I am sorry to hear about your friends leaving. Those seasons where our Lord seems quiet is hard huh? I will start praying with you and for you as well. I trust He is working, drawing you near to Him. I love that verse in Hosea...

"Therefore, behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak tenderly to her.
Hosea 2:14 ESV

I think you for sharing and I understand. I did find this in bible study tools that might offer a suggestion for you.

Lord Father, in Jesus name, I lift Ruby to you today. She yearns for Your revealing. She Yearns for You. Lord please shine Your precious Glory in her life. She needs the comfort only You can bring. We know you never leave us or forsake us. We trust You are listening. If there is anything that she can do, help guide Her to Your truth. Thank You Lord, for all that you do and are. Again, in Jesus name I pray, Amen.
