This is always a busy month for me.
If you or someone that you may know are trapped in an abusive relationship , check out my links page. You are valuable and I do know what you are going through, my story , published in “Hidden Hurt” is on my webpage , though it was terrifying to leave , it was so much more terrifying to stay in that madness. You are not alone , connect with a domestic violence advocate and make a safe plan.
The most important part is to carefully plan your every step so that there will be less confusion and you will remain safe! It is important not to make half hearted steps, rather every move should be full of purpose and well planned. Life is so much more meaningful to live , experience- not just hanging on by a thread. Life is so short make the best choices that you can every day!

” The garden glows of brittle bronze,
While purple leaves bog shores of ponds.
The holly hocks bend sadly, down;
“Neath swaying trees, vermilion crowned.
The grassy field once waved in jade; now dances golden, sun arrayed.
The watching forest standing by,
reflects great rainbows to the sky.”

Savor each memory with great hunger as the seasons pass so quickly, let each beautiful moment write a song on your heart that will be sung for all time!!

This is my very favorite time of year , a sigh of summer ending and a hazy threat of a what is yet to come-this year has been full of surprises! Don’t forget to grab hold of what is beautiful around you before it is all gone!

I was painting my sun porch yesterday, looking out the window I noticed that two doors down someone had left their lamp post on. It was the peak of a very beautiful , sunny day and I thought if I had not looked closely , I am sure that I would have overlooked that light burning in the sunlight. In dark places -this lamp post would map out a path for many; here in the brilliance of the sun- just a wash out of light. I hope that the light that can be seen from my life is never a wash out among other lights , but instead, I pray that you will not have to look hard for the Son’s light to shine forth in me-“Walk in the light -for He is The Light” – God gets all the glory!

I heard a message today that was powerful but practical at the same time. The speaker (Jim S. @Redeemer) was saying that mankind cries out for a promise that something or someone in our lives will stay unchanged -so that no surprises will come our way. Life is so filled with changes-people will always change-so we crave for someone who we can count on, someone stable and consistent.
More than anything people need to be supported,…loved. Jesus is the one promise that we all can count on, He is the same yesterday and He will be the same forever more. If we put our trust in Him-He will keep us stable , He will be our support, He is the only one that we can count on , He loves us with an everlasting love! Jesus is our anchor home!
