Today is the conclusion of the four day series, "So Much to Tell You." If you missed the beginning post, please go back and read Day 1. Looking back over this series, I feel like a science experiment: Day #1 - Houston, we have a problem. Day #2 - Recognize the problem, unable to find solution Day #3 - Solution is found Day #4 - ...

So Much to Tell You: Message #2
If you haven't read the beginning of this blog series, please go back so that you understand the need I had for the messages. I longed for the other side but for some reason found myself unable to obtain it. The worst part of it, I didn't know what was holding me back. Why was I so drawn to the computer, to my mommy drug, which allowed me ...
So Much To Tell You: Message #1
Yesterday I handed you the key to my journal. I gave you full access to a gross truth of my life. If you missed yesterday's post, please go back and read to understand the background for Message #1.

So Much to Tell You
Finally, I get to sit down and write this blog. I am so excited to tell you what God is teaching me right now that I can barely stand myself. I seriously have thought how wonderful it would be to have a computer hooked to my brain so that all I had to do was think it, and it would type up the document. (Might be scary to see in writing some of the ...

As an author, Sheila Walsh wants girls to know that they are God's princesses. Her books are written to assure little girls that they are precious and loved by Him. Gabby, God's Little Angel explains that God watches out for His princesses by putting "His angels in charge" of them (Ps 91:9,11). The story begins with an ...
When Do You Answer?
I love the bluntness of The Message. As I stated earlier, I am reading through the Proverbs using this "version" of the Bible. Here is an example: Proverbs 18:13 - Answering before listening is both stupid and rude. The Holy Spirit made these words pop off the page. How many times do I do that to my children? I assume ...
ABC Jesus Loves Me Forum
It's here...It's here!!! Did you hear we shouting that from the mountain tops? Well hill tops just the same. After a month of testing and working on the website, my dear husband was able to upgrade the ABCJLM website and add a forum! Once again, you told me what you wanted and we worked and worked to provide it for you. I pray ...
Recipe: Stew
There are some recipes that immediately spark a picture of a person in your mind. This recipe was Susan S's. I am so thankful for what this woman and her husband did for me as a young person. I credit so much of the ABCJLM website to things that I learned from Susan. Stew is a hardy meal that requires very little ...
