Congratulations to my writing friend and author, Mary DeMuth!

Her latest book was released yesterday: Stop Living Small, which I recommend to all women who have struggled or are struggling with the lies of unworthiness, which renders us with feelings of shame, remorse, loneliness, vulnerability, longings without hope of success, despair and more negative thoughts.

I relate to Mary's writing because I know she's been there, but her struggles taught the lessons we need to hear today. Number one is that God's love can erase all those lies.

I love Mary's writing because she puts feelings, which are hard to express, into words that form mental pictures in my mind.  Only then can I/we place ourselves into the picture" and find healing and joy.

Aging Defined

A Polish grandma once told me, "Oi, they forgot to tell me about the rust in the Golden Years."

One of Maxine's witticisms I can relate to is:

Yep, humor lightened the moment while the paramedics helped me up from my kitchen floor. That evening I learned that everything in my kitchen moved. I had nothing to grab onto.

Now at age 77, I agree with Old Socrates:

 I am the wisest [wo]man alive, 

for I know one thing, 

and that is that I know nothing. 

Selah ... think about this

Philippians, an in-depth study

Time. What's that? Everyone is so-o busy. Well, not everybody. Those with disabilities and many seniors like me have too much time.

Here's the deal. I'll study with the Holy Spirit's assistance

I have seven commentaries/study books, multiple versions of the Bible, and seven Bible research books plus the internet for an in-depth study of Philippians, my favorite New Testament book.

One of the highlights is the power of a woman long before women had rights. 

Due to illness, I was unable to complete this study. If I improve, I will try again.

I am doing much better physically plus I have a caregiver each day. She takes care of my apartment, shopping, laundry, etc. Therefore, I can use my limited energy for the things I love. The study of Scripture heads my list. 

And I am happy to announce the in-depth study of Philippians is COMING SOON following the mini-study about Hagar.

Selah,

Connie

COMING SOON!

 

Have You Met Hagar?

Spring, 2021 found me studying the life of Hagar, a slave found in Genesis 16 and again in chapter 21:8-21. I recognized her name, but knew very little about her.

10 articles and 9 books later I found Hagar to be an extraordinary woman and well worth sharing her life with you. I think you'll be amazed how her story relates to the women of today.

Come back soon and I'll take you to Canaan ten generations after the flood.

Selah (think on this),
