Whisper words of encouragement. Be strong of heart. Be filled with wisdom. Share the journey with kindness.

It is a short blog as I am a tired artist/wife/sailor/cook/mother/grandmother/woman. Despite a night of rest, I am still worn out.  I served in all capacities yesterday and I am tuckered.  The words above served me yesterday and I pray they will serve you today.  Don't loose your temper with anyone today. Step back if you are pulled to anger. 

Be strong of heart and try something you fear... let God walk with you as you take those first steps.


Encourage others that are walking in fear.  Share a smile, a hug or a kind word to help them refocus and feel God's love and almighty power.

By day the LORD directs his love, at night his song is with me— a prayer to the God of my life.”- Psalm 42:8

I am tired too.....busy day yesterday just with normal chores and then awake at 4am this morning, not by choice. I have not felt this tired in a very, very long time.after church I put my robe back on and will vegetate the remainder of the day. I'd read but I know I would fall asleep mid paragraph. I hope you willyse today to rest as well.Love you!
