Munchkin is still ahead of schedule, and I am on target for my reading. Some days are easier than others to get the reading done. Some passages are more difficult to than others to read. I have always enjoyed both the story of Ester and the story of Job. Ester is an example of how listening to our elders and making the best of our situation can have a huge, positive impact on our lives and those around us.

God’s Mercy: Highway of Holiness
Posted in Christian Life, and Photography
A highway shall be there, and a road, And it shall be called the Highway of Holiness. The unclean shall not pass over it, But it shall be for other.

You know that they could be called up to head off to war at any time. When the happens, if you’re truly honest with yourself, you know there is the possibility of them not coming home. The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid? ~ Psalm 27:1 ~ I’m no different than any other military spouse. When…
