I have had my hearing loss a long time. It began when I was very young. I received my first hearing aid at the age of nine and progressed over my life. I now am a bi-lateral cochlear implant recipient. Communication and socialization were always difficult and challenging for me, but I loved to write,…
I love Baptism Sundays at our church. My favorite part is hearing the testimonies of the people being baptized. As I listen to each on, there is a theme. They may all be different and unique in many ways, but there is one common denominator in all of them. The name of Jesus! When I…
One of my greatest desires for this website is for us to be a community. I love prayer. I love praying for others. God has blessed us with the privilege to be able to go to Him anytime we want or need to. It is one we take for granted far too often. I treasure…

Do you have that friend who knows exactly what you need when you need it.? They may know what is going on in your life but they may not. Sometimes it is a word in season, a text to let you know you are thought of, a gift, or something as simple as a hug…

As we started the construction, one thing led to another, and before we knew it, we found ourselves having to do a full home remodel, inside and out. It is an older home, so some things…
