My weakness is always before me, taunting me, telling me I can’t do that. But God’s grace surrounds even my weakness, deadening those taunts. Even though I have no strength of my own, my friend and Savior Jesus increases my strength. I had none before He came to save me, and still, on my own have none. But as He lives through me, His strength becomes mine. Although the taunts are true, the truth of my salvation trumps them, cancelling the taunt with the higher truth: “He gives power to the weak, and to those who have no might, He increases strength.” Isaiah 40:29.

Just gettin' by on gettin' by's my stock in trade......
I took a break for quite a while. The pandemic has wrought many changes, some good, some crazy tough. But, I am okay, and I will be okay.
I hope you like my off-center, slap it down style of writing. Sometimes I just have to get the words out of my head and onto a page. For decades, those words have gone into journals. Then I wrote a novel and even got it published (Beacon, It's Never Too Late).
Now, new at widowhood, I am trying to get back into the thick of things. Writing seems to help me more than anything.
Thank you for your indulgence.
