I have always been an extremely private person. I was talking with someone the other day and they said that I needed to be more open – “people want to know what’s going in your life. They are looking for details.” 

Well, I am willing to share more of me… but I still reserve the right to keep intensely personal things just that – personal.

I can share an experience, a testimony, that could help someone. We can talk about where I went on vacation, what God is doing in my life…exactly how he’s shaping and molding – in what ways he’s transforming my mind – changing attitudes and mindsets – I could give specific examples – but if I want to keep romantic dinners with my husband private I can do that, right? (chuckling…).

I can share my laughter, and some tears…0f joy or sadness. I will even share deep thoughts, but only some.  I will give you details unreservedly, but only some…  brokenness, that I can let you see… and triumph too… overcomer status….

I will… give you a chance… to get to know — me. Talk to you again real soon…

I have learned to take EVERY “coal” experience and polish it with grace until it acquires diamond status….

God is a good God. What more can I say? His mercies are new every morning. Today I am celebrating His Excellency…
Great is His faithfulness.

One of my fave colors is burnt orange. I never considered why that was until yesterday. Flying high above the clouds during sunset. I looked out the window of the airplane and saw such rich vibrant colors, so close I could almost touch them. That is when I realized the reason for my strong attraction to the color. It reminds me of THAT sunset hue….

“JOY …is found in the sound of laughter and the melody of song.”
