Readings

  • God's servants: The Holy Bible

    God's servants: The Holy Bible
    I want to share with you a book that continues to be my source for living. Is it the best book I have ever read? It is the Book of all books and I learn from God's word each time I open it. Through trials, sorrow, joy and triumph, God's Living Word leads me. I am nothing without my Salvation and my Teacher. He holds me in the palm of his hands when I am weak and is the spring in my step when I am strong, He is my strength. Do you have the peace that comes with Jesus? I cannot rate the Bible for it is above all; the best story ever told and full of many lessons to learn!!! A good read, no, a GREAT read!!! Read on my friend...

  • Nicholas Sparks: Safe Haven

    Nicholas Sparks: Safe Haven
    This was a pretty eventfull book. Lots going on in it...in a good way. I loved the love found between the characters.

  • Billy Coffey: Snow Day: A Novel

    Billy Coffey: Snow Day: A Novel
    This book is this authors first and I loved it. It has life lessons at every turn. I'll call it a dad's story, but it is a book for everyone. I certainly look forward to his next book!

My Quotes

  • "I've never claimed to be a great Christian. What I do claim is a great God."

  • "The ones who cry get rocked and the good ones don't get held."
  • "Doing something right the first time saves time."
  • “You only choose once.”
  • “I live within the mental institution of my mind”
  • "Critics! You would think I was a movie."
  • "We all carry different scraps from the past."
  • "Our grandchildren are the icing on our children's cake!"

On Being a Redhead

  • "It was dreadful. They tried to put the little redhead in a cage." Sarah Furguson
  • Each T at rs1805007 was found to increase one's odds of having red hair by about 6.1 times.
    https://www.23andme.com/health/Hair-Color/
  • Redheads really do require more anesthesia, and by a clinically important amount.
  • Blondes are wild, brunettes are true, but you never know just what a redhead will do!
  • Redheads are inclined to higher spiritual connections, higher intelligence and greater wisdom from a Divine source. Chances are that the typical "evil inclination" towards red-haired people came from neo-platonic sources and the rise of the Papacy as the new religion of the world. The discrimination, prejudice and xenophobia towards red-haired people was partly based on the political plot of eradication of any and all possible descendants of Levi & Judah. Fortunately the genes were established throughout the known world before the Inquisitions & Crusades. Azanne Research
  • "When redheaded people are above a certain social grade their hair is auburn,"
  • "Actually, the top of a carrot is green, not orange."
  • Greying is caused when the body stops producing melanin which causes hair to lose its color. However, when this process occurs in red hair, it tends to look blonde rather than gray.
  • A team reports in the journal Science that it extracted DNA from the remains of two Neanderthals and retrieved part of an important gene called MC1R. In modern people, a change - or mutation - in this gene causes red hair, but, until now, no one knew what hair colour our extinct relatives had.

"Ushka, just a minute, I'm working. I need to get this email sent out." They are little sponges. What I was amazed at was how she typed...she seemed to know where her fingers were to be on the keyboard. :O)

A Mother's Prayer

  • “Prayers From A Mother’s Heart” Ruth Bell Graham
    Heavenly Father, I praise and thank You for the privilege of coming before You humbly and interceding on behalf of my children. Keep their hearts tender and sensitive to Your voice. Give them a love for Your Word and willing hearts to obey it. Help them to desire to walk before You in righteousness all the days of their lives. May they grow in the wisdom and knowledge of the Lord. Give them a heart of compassion and concern for the lost and the wounded. Lead them to a place of service in Your kingdom’s work. Lord, send a guardian angel to watch over their going out and their coming in, and lead them not into temptation, but deliver them from the evil one. Send enough rain to keep them dependent on You but enough sun to give them hope and encouragement. And, Lord, when they’re standing at the crossroads trying to decide which path to take, put a person of faith there to point them in the right direction. Thank You for Your blessing. You provision, and Your great love for my children. I ask this prayer in the name of the Father, the son and the Holy Spirit.
