Living Water

Posted in Christian Life

There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink. (For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat.) Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans. Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given…

Songs for Sunday: Winter

Posted in Christian Life

Winter by Sixteen Cities How did I ever get this broken? I never meant to fall this far. I feel like I’m completely frozen. Can I find a way, back to where you are? Cuz I’ve been searching for the sun, but I don’t know if anyone, can tell me how to find my way home. All the things that I’ve become, are all the things I’m running from.

Sidewinder Pass can be found near the town of… Which is near an old mine road called… Where you may find some of these signs of days gone by… For more Foto Friday Challenge: Signs, head over to Renaissance.

It’s the Climb

Posted in Blogging, and Fun

What’s a gal to do when she can’t do much around the house and has to pretty much stay put due to a bum ankle?  Well, if you’re me, you have fun listening to the free preview sessions from the Ultimate Homeschool Expo, you catch up on your favorite blogs, you find some new blogs to follow, and you enjoy reading some good books. The good news is that my ankle is slowly starting to get better.  I’m able to move a bit more without major pain.  The stairs are still a huge cause of pain, so I’m mainly stay…
