Pure Joy
I'm not sure I know what it means. Nor do I feel I am doing it well. But I've been giving a lot of thought to the words, "Consider it pure joy whenever you face trials of many kinds." James 1:2 I am certain it does NOT mean a plastic smile. Nor does it MERELY mean to … Continue reading Pure Joy

Our youngest begins 7th grade. Am I ready for this? I feel inside a fragility about it all. An uncertainty as … Continue reading *Life
