A Time to Mourn

Solomon said, “There is a time to mourn!” Give yourself some. Face your grief with tears, time, and one more—face your grief with truth.

Grief Is Like An Ocean

Grief is like the ocean; it comes on waves ebbing and flowing. Sometimes the water is calm, and sometimes it is overwhelming. All we can do is learn to swim.

Happy and Blessed Easter

Sometimes, I’m overwhelmed by GOD’s presence, by HIS goodness, HIS forgiveness, HIS love, HIS grace and HIS mercy; His healing power.

And how He can put the broken pieces back together.

Don’t be overwhelmed by life; be overwhelmed in the Presence of the GIVER of LIFE!

Happy Easter!

Blessings, Bev
