I've been in church from the time I was conceived.
Robert, my husband for 43 years, is still telling stories about his "pre-Sharon" days that I've never heard (how can that be?).
Of the best gifts that the Lord has given me, four are my children, now grown with their own children (more gifts).
At the present time, my "grand-gifts" number 10.
And there are the "great-grand-gifts" - three darling little girls.
When it comes to doing laundry, I am an accomplished procrastinator.
This is what my husband and I would like to see accomplished in our marriage: May the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to live in such harmony with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus, that together you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore welcome one another as Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God. Romans 15:5-7
For me, organic gardening is an avenue to observe the Creator's magnificent designs fashioned to delight me.
Amazingly, at 70 years of age, I am still kept in the love of God because of my Savior. Though I sin, His love rules our relationship and He continues to forgive and cleanse me daily.
The books I read convict me to get off my comfort zone to love and serve God more fervently. I need this!
Sale-ing and hopping are two of my favorite pastimes – “garage-sale-ing” and “thrift-store-hopping”.
The Bible Project videos fascinate me and so effortlessly teach me about the Bible.
My little dog Tucker makes me laugh with his crazy-horse antics. I see in him God's wonderful sense of humor.
A favorite pursuit is to share a meal around the table with whoever the Lord brings our way - our homeless neighbors, a friend that is ill or a daughter that God just snatched from the kingdom of darkness and transferred into the Kingdom of His beloved Son.
Listening to John Piper consistently moves me to pursue a more surrendered life to the Lord Jesus Christ.
The YouVersion Bible provides Bible reading plans that put me at Jesus’ feet daily, gazing on His beauty.
About the time I was conceived, my great grandmother, Franziska, went to live with Jesus, leaving behind a legacy of love for her Savior. I discovered this treasure 16 years ago in a family history book. Read about this inspiring woman of God here!
Five years of my early Christian life were lived as a legalist, yielding an “inside-out righteousness”, with my "legal lists" of dos and don'ts. Unmitigated pride was the fruit. BUT God delivered me and showered on me His love. A book, "A Legal Night" was born as I “unlearned” all I had erroneously believed and discovered again God’s amazing grace and Jesus, the author and perfecter of my faith.
Jamin' is one way I preserve the fruit harvested here on our little farm, The Yarden of Feedin'. Find my recipes here on my food blog.
How encouraged I am by City Alight! The Lord used their song lyrics, rich with precious doctrinal truths, to transcend my physical pain while recuperating from a very tough surgery earlier this year.
What an abundant life the Lord Jesus Christ gives to those who love and follow Him!
