Introduction You'll find me early morning or evening, by the lamp light. The hours in between are some of the happiest and craziest times with my dear husband, the Salesman, who also works out of our home. The Lord recently moved us to town and my father has lived with us for almost a year and a half. I am so in love with Jesus - He has radically changed my life. I love to meet with Him in the still and quiet early morning lamp light. In the quiet times and in the crazy moments, He speaks. His Words strengthen and His Spirit sustains me in the pleasant daily routines and the many unknowns. His words shed Light and Truth on my pilgrim pathway. Praise His Name! I pray that you know The Light and that His Lamp guides you along the way. May you seek Him personally and knit your relationship closer day by day. I love the Word - it is life and light to me. And, I pray, this will be a place that you too can see that in your heart, The Light, wants to live, and rule and forever be.
