What you leave behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments, but what is woven into the lives of others. Pericles
Father, may I walk this walk each and every day, remembering that my value lies in what You would have me do and be as I encounter others in this world. Your Truth is woven into my life and I want to weave it into those I meet. I want to be the Christ to those who may not know Him and for those who do I want to be the Christ Whom they need and want to know better. By some small action or word that I might do or say, I hope that I am walking in obedience to You. A gravestone may mark a spot where my ashes remain after this life, but it will be in the lives I touch for You where I want to make a difference. You are my God. I am Your child. In the Name of Jesus, Your Son, I pray. Amen.

I am a quiet woman growing each day in the LORD.
Christ is my home. He is the well from which I drink. I became His 25 years ago. I am 71 so that is actually a small percentage of my life through which I could have walked closely with Him. No matter, He never stopped waiting for me.
I am now a widow from a Christ-centered marriage of 25 years to Kenneth. I praise God for him. I miss him so. We had no children.
I feel God’s call to be His light in this dark world. I am grateful for the love God gives to me so I may give it away.
I live in Lufkin, Texas, USA (in Deep East Texas/Pineywoods). I have taught Women’s Sunday School/Bible Study, co-administrated/taught a teen girls’ annual conference. I participate in women’s Bible studies in church as well as on my own. I am a retired elementary school teacher, having taught in California, Washington, D.C., and have taught older children and adults in Oregon and Texas. I also retired from being a children’s librarian in the public library system, a job I thoroughly loved. I tutored primary-aged children who are falling behind in those early years of school until we moved in May 2017.
