This is my 9th year of blogging! I started my blog when I began writing for some magazines and began working on my book idea. I actually started three blogs. One for writing, one for Homeschooling and the other for Women’s Ministry. I later decided it was best to combine all on one blog. I…
We are continuing on with the tour of our get-away home in the Hill Country. If you missed part one, you can click here to view. I’m still tweaking on some things and we have a couple of rooms that we haven’t even started on yet, but for now, join me for a quick stroll…

“The Lord is gracious and full of compassion, Slow to anger and great in mercy.” Psalm 145:8 Do you have that yearning desire to have a heart like His? We talked about having a heart of love in our last post. Today, let’s talk a little bit about compassion. I don’t think…
