Sabbath Offerings ~ Cooperate
What’s your news feed like these days? Do you leave your social media feeling warm and fuzzy or ready to pull your hair out? I struggle with the negativity that runs like a current through my newsfeed. I intentionally choose to limit my time on Facebook, which...
Choosing Care-full to Know I’m Cared For
I am a people watcher. I observe, listen and learn from the people around me. Growing up, all of the women in my life–my mom, aunts, and ladies at church–showed me examples of serving others. These women put the other people in their life first before they...
