  Restore Part 1     Jeremiah 33:1-8 1. Moreover, the word of the lord came unto Jeremiah the second time, while he was yet shut up in the court of the prison, saying,  2. Thus saith the Lord the maker of thereof, the Lord that formed it, to establish it; the Lord is his name; 3. Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things which thou knowest not, 4. For thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are thrown down by the mounts, and by the sword.  5. They come to fight with the Chaldeans, but it is to fill them with dead bodies of men, whom I have slain un mine anger and in my fury  and for all whose wickedness I have hid my face from this city. 6. Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth. 7. And I will cause the captivity of Israel to return, and will build ...

It doesn't seem like it's been that long in one way, but in another it seems like an entire lifetime ago.   Six months full of tears, questions, what ifs, laughter, and the indescribable pain of losing your dad. No one or really nothing can prepare for this.   Thanksgiving was going to be different this year. We weren't having a Thanksgiving dinner like we always do. It was too much for Mom. I get it.   I hope these anniversaries get easier. It seems like they loom and then it's here. The date you left us. This one seems especially harder with it being six m...

                              Why I Quit Young Living I have promoted Young Living publicly for over five years now.  So, this is the only reason that I am choosing to share why our family has decided to quit.  I love YL’s products, and we use a ton of different ones in our home on a daily basis. There are a couple reasons that I’m not going to disclose publicly either.  This is in no way to give YL a black eye or the MLM businesses.  I’m not writing for either of those reasons.  This is a long story so if you want to find out why , keep reading. :) Back in the fall 2021, I decided that in January 2022 it would be one of my goals to really focus on my YL business and get it up and running more than I had ever done before.  I had spoken to quite a few people who told me that after I got it back up in January that they would join me.  One person I know for sure ...

                                                                               Giving Place: Part 1   What do you do when you feel like you have a million things to say and not one word will form?  I have important words shut up in my bones.  They need out.  They need to fall where they may.  Maybe none of you will even read them or take what I have to say to heart? I don't know. But what I do know is if one of you will read and consider in your own heart, then I have fulfilled my purpose in doing so.     Nobody is talking about these things. Is that why I feel the need to share? There are tons and tons of people involved and children and our futures are at stake and nothing.  You can hear a pin drop while the enemy ...
