December 22, 2022 This morning I had a very practical example of why we need to prepare properly. Not all preparation is the same. Mom baked last night and the usual is that I wash in the morning. The sink was filled with wares. Well packed. But before I could even start to wash, …

Confession
December 22, 2022 Confession: I’m tired. Confession: I like when we talk. Good Morning Yahweh. Confession: Woke up with Christmas songs on my mind. I’ve done no cleaning. Purchased nor made no gifts. Been thinking what I can make and nothing came to mind. But I am in the mood for Christmas. I know …
Pretend and Say
December 21, 2022 I want to pretend and say that I’m not sad, but that would be lying. Staff dinner tomorrow and I’ll be going by myself. The thanksgiving evening next week, I’m the only single one in the midst. Sometimes I do wonder if there is a sign on me that says “avoid” …
Interruptions
December 21, 2022 Yahweh. Thank you for your goodness and mercy. Thank you for the interruptions. That causes us to pause and to seek you. I pray for a solution. Our printer – the one printer stopped working. Thank you for a solution. Amen. What happened? Needed to finish print some documents for tomorrow. …
Dresses With Strength
December 21, 2022 It is the strangest thing. I seem to have money in the bank. All the bills are accounted for and there is actually a “surplus” of about $500 it looks like. Now I know this is for gasoline etc for the next month and to purchase food for the cats, but …

Answered Prayers
December 19, 2022 It is so late, it is early. This evening went nothing to plan. Ended up meeting with my business partner because the other days were booked. Then my cousin who I have not seen in three years came by and she is leaving in the morning, so of course there was …
Full Gas Tank!
December 19, 2022 So my commitment. Even if the prayer isn’t answered in the affirmative, I will still give thanks in a tangible way. More than words. One prayer was answered, but the answer was a no. I am still thankful for an answer. I pray that no matter what I will always give …
You Came
December 19, 2022 It’s the week leading up to Christmas! Yahweh, I am thankful that you came to this earth as a baby so that you can live like us so that we could live like you. I know that there are arguments that you weren’t born on December 25th, but I truly believe …
All I Want for Christmas
December 18, 2022 It’s the music. It’s getting me excited for Christmas. My honest to goodness favourite Christmas songs are: All I want for Christmas And This Christmas And truthfully while with “This Christmas” I usually like almost any version, for “All I want”, the Mariah Carey version is the one I …
