 Thunderstorms fascinate me. Hearing the loud, explosive sound of thunder just after the lightning strikes across a dark, cloudy sky is very captivating. I guess I enjoy watching the show that Mother Nature puts on for us sometimes. In great contrast, there are storms that occur in the lives of people that I do not enjoy watching. These types of storms are what many refer to as, the storms of life. I believe they originate from satan and I don't think for a second we have to allow them to destroy us.

 With the kind nod from our publisher, Darlene, I will be alternating topics on a monthly basis. My desire to achieve a greater sense of strength and vitality after nearly two years following a severe back injury has been greatly enhanced with wise (sometimes not so wise) counsel of a dedicated group in the medical professions as well as lots of hard work/therapy. The pursuit of best nutrition for me and husband has had profound positive results as well. |

She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to what he said. But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked, “Lord, don’t you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!” “Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, but only one thing is needed. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.” Luke 10:39-42

Being a parent is a wonderful gift. It is both rewarding and difficult beyond description. My husband once said, "Life is only as good as how your children are doing." If our children are having a difficult time with something, or suffering in some way, we as parents are emotionally tied. We want our children’s lives to be better than ours and it is hard to watch them go through life’s ups and downs.

As I spend the year researching and studying articles on parenting ministries to help enrich readers needing help, it occurs to me that I have thus far greatly overlooked a population which needs help perhaps most of all and that is the single parent families out there. But, while I have overlooked this, the Lord has not! He is faithful to all our needs. One ministry He has provided to help single parent families is InStep found online at www.instepministries.com

Do we engage with lukewarmness in our private devotions? Is the fire of devotion burning dimly within our hearts? If so, let us go weeping, for if this fire should be smothered beneath the ashes of worldly conformity, it will dim our view of Calvary.

My husband Steve has faced some major physical challenges in the past five years. After surgery, a couple of grim diagnosis and medically related job layoffs, his doctor finally told him that he could no longer work and recommended filing for disability. We did so immediately, but fear hung over us like a dark cloud.

Too many words! Every day we’re bombarded with a constant clamor of messages. So many sound-bites stream through the cable that we can hardly keep track of them. Racing words crash together like waves on a rock. Our senses are deadened. We can’t absorb it all.

My daughter was married in a small wedding chapel, deep in the piney woods of East Texas. The McMahan Wedding Chapel claims to be the oldest Protestant church in Texas. The church has a unique history; it has seen the start of the Civil War, 9/11, and Hurricane Rita. If the pine trees could speak, we would hear stories of faith.

Oh, how do I begin, there is so much to tell about the journey I walk. Oh, to have you believe and know how much your Father loves you and will answer your every plea, and the comfort He sends, fills my soul with glorious Praises.
